Whoever said orange was the new pink was seriously disturbed.--Elle Woods, Legally Blonde

A journal is more than a memory goad. It's therapeutic. The simple act of opening a notebook to put words down stills the crosscurrents of worry, drawing to focus the essential though patterms that best defines us, intersecting those thoughts with the condition of our life at that exact moment. A journal is one of the few anchors the human condition allows us.--Randy Wayne White, Outside

One thing I've found of people in the public eye, either you're a womanizer or you've got to be gay. Since I'm niether one of those, people are completely concerned about me. They're like, "What are you, then?" I'm sure it has to do with being raised by women.

People don't keep journals for themselves. They keep them for other people, like a secret they don't want to tell but they want everyone to know. The only safe place for your thoughts is your memory, which people can't take and read when you're not looking--at least, not yet.--anonymous

Because we do not know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. And yet everything happens only a certain number of times; a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood? An afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you can't even concieve of your life without it. Perhaps four, five times more; perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems so limitless.--Brandon Lee

I'm not doubting. I don't doubt God. I have firm faith absolutely in God. It's religion I'm doubting.--Bono
