| If a man could pass through Paradise in a dream, and have a flower presented to him as a pledge that his soul had really been there, and if he found that flower in his hand when he awoke --Ay! And what then? When all the wishes in your heart, all the dreams you've ever had, and all the things you've always hoped for soared into the sky and were reflected in someone else's eyes; then you have found your destiny. It's hard to tell your mind to stop loving someone when your heart still does. If you love someone put their name in a circle not a heart; a heart can be broken but a circle goes on forever. Everyone says you only fall in love once but that's not true because every time I hear his voice I fall in love all over again. Any time I yearn to be, Anything I care to do, Anywhere I want to go, My mind can take me there. I always knew looking back on the tears would make me laugh; But I never knew looking back on the laughter would make me cry. Never frown, even when you are feeling sad, Because you never know Who is falling in love with your smile. Love does not consist in gazing at each other But in looking outward, together, In the same direction. You can clutch the Past so tightly to your chest That it leaves your arms too full To embrace the Present. It's not that I cant live without you, it's just that I don't even want to try. Fate decides who enters your life... you decide who stays. Sometimes the very thing you're looking for is the one thing you can not see. Life isn't measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. True magick is neither black nor white. It's both, because nature is both. Loving and cruel all at the same time. Life has a way of balancing itself. There is no revenge as complete as forgiveness. Don't hate me because I wasn't who you thought I was, or who you wanted me to be. From the beginning, you never knew who I was. Be kind. For everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle. Courage is not defined by those who fought, nor by those who fell, But by those who fought, fell, and rose again. In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. As for a spiritual awakening ... as I like to put it, that's what happens when the Goddess sneaks up behind you with a 24 Ton Bag O' Bricks and just whams you over the back of your head. Never trust a man, who when alone in a room with a tea cosy, does not try it on. Walk neither in Light nor in Darkness But tread the path in Between For we are as but Shadows Needing both to ever be . There's plenty more fish in the sea, but who'd want to go out with a fish? Dream as if you'll live forever, Live as if you'll die today. Tell me and I will forget, Show me and I may not remember, Involve me and I will understand. What is mind? It doesn't matter. What is matter? Never mind. A friend is like a four-leaf clover; hard to find, but lucky to have. Don't cry because it's over, smile because it's happened. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world. |
