A "quote" for all occasions..(did I spell that right?)

I used to think she was quite intelligent, in my stupidity. The reason I did was because she knew quite a lot about plays and literature and all that stuff. If somebody knows quite a lot about those things, it takes you quite a while to find out whether they're really stupid or not. It took me years to find it out, in old Sally's case. I think I'd have found out a lot sooner if we hadn't necked so damn much.

Eccentricity is not, as dull people would have us believe, a form of madness. It is often a kind of innocent pride, and the man of genius and the aristocrat are frequently regarded as eccentrics because genius and aristocrat are entirely unafraid of and uninfluenced by the opinions and vagaries of the crowd.

Dont be humble, you're not that great  (Golda Meir, former prime minister of Isreal)

If you cant be a woman, be a drag queen (I said that)

[Queen of Everything]

Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.

Neil Gaiman

Best Quote Ever.   

[Elrothiel]

That quote is VERY true... but when all the shit stuff ISN'T happening... and everything is going just fine... love is THE best feeling in the world ever.

Love is your best friend... until it goes wrong and then its your worst enemy.

Typical break up line I've heard before...

Sorry this is one I just remembered, I don't think it is word for word and I can't remember where I read it, but...

"Never deprive someone of hope, it may be all they have."

"Since music is a language with some meaning at least for the immense majority of mankind, although only a tiny minority of people are capable of formulating a meaning in it, and since it is the only language with the contradictory attributes of being at once intelligible and untranslatable, the musical creator is a being comparable to the gods, and music itself the supreme mystery of the science of man, a mystery that all the various disciplines come up against and which holds the key to their progress."

I cannot pretend to feel impartial about colors. I rejoice with the brilliant ones and am genuinely sorry for the poor browns.

"Imagine it-- someone knows you, all of you, your talents and eccentricites, your generosity and dark moods, what you look like at your best and at your worst. Imagine that you've opened all of yourself to that person, no masks, no gimmicks...That's what real intimacy is all about."

The only man who is really free is the one who can turn down an invitation to dinner without giving an excuse.

?I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me; love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.?  - Anonymous
