I was looking for something else when I found this...

“Passion, it lies in all of us, sleeping... waiting...
and though unwanted... unbidden... it will stir... open its jaws and howl.
It speaks to us... guides us... passion rules us all, and we obey.

What other choice do we have?

Passion is the source of our finest moments.
The joy of love... the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of grief.
It hurts sometimes more than we can bear.
If we could live without passion maybe we'd know some kind of peace...
but we would be hollow... Empty rooms shuttered and dank.

Without passion we'd be truly dead.”

Joss Whedon

I love quotes... all kinds of quotes, and I thought I'd start posting some of my favorites.

You see them everywhere, bumper stickers, t-shirts, billboards, movie quotes, music... some make you laugh, cry, some make you go, huh?

Feel free to add any that you enjoy...

I'm Thankful For You...

“In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out.
It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being.
We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.”

Albert Schweitzer

If you were all alone in the universe with no one to talk to, no one with which to share the beauty of the stars, to laugh with, to touch, what would be your purpose in life? It is other life, it is love, which gives your life meaning. This is harmony. We must discover the joy of each other, the joy of challenge, the joy of growth.

Mitsugi Saotome

 

[Morrigu]

For you......

What if you slept? And what if, in your sleep, you dreamed?
And what if, in your dream, you went to heaven
and there plucked an strange and beautiful flower?
And what if, when you awoke, you had the flower in your hand?
Ah, what then?

-Samuel Taylor Coleridge
