My Life in Thought

"When the stars shine bright through the engine’s trail
And the dust of another world drops behind
When my ship is free of the open sky
That’s a damn good day to my piece of mind
There’s a barren planet you never can leave
There’s a rocky valley where we lost a war
There’s a cross once hung ‘round a soldier’s neck
There’s a man’s faith died on Serenity’s floor
But I stood my ground and I’ll fly once more
That’s the last oath that I ever swore"

"You can pretend to be serious; you can’t pretend to be witty.”

A quote from Paul Hawken on optimism, pessimism, and building a sustainable future. It is taken from his remarkable commencement address to the University of Portland’s Class of 2009.

"I had considered making a sign that said ‘I have a sharp knife and a large Warlord Prince’ and floating it over my head, but I don’t want to tell anyone about the knife until after I use it, and anyone dumb enough not to notice you deserves to get knocked into a wall."

"There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened."

The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

"There are four questions of value in life:
What is sacred?
Of what is the Spirit made for?
What is worth living for?
What is worth dying for?
The answer to each is the same:
Only love"

Johnny Deep

Smart girls

“Smart girls are the over thinkers, the insecure ones, the different ones. They know what the real world is like. They analyze every little thing in life. Why? To avoid getting hurt. To find happiness. They stay up at night trying to think about every possible situation to get through all the problems. They think too much. They trust fewer people. Their insecurity proves their respect toward themselves. Of course they try to live away from a drama-filled life. Smart girls know their worth. Now those are the ones worth keeping by your side.”
