Quotes

Quote Left Hey everything in the world is worth a try, if we don't try we won't know if we live or die. At least that's what our ancestors believed, and well they decided to sniff a beavers butt to find vanilla like musk, so I may question their sanity and how many died, but can't argue with the truth.

Quote Left When someone asks me my age. My answer will be this: I'm older then what you may think,but younger then what I may appear. To those that know me I play many roles from dad, to uncle to grandfather to brother to son to cousin. I am as old as I feel and as old as I wish to be. Quote Right

Quote Left This life is a constant struggle,to live means to suffer to die means to hurt others. Good and evil often intertwine all too often in this world. This world is both a curse and a gift. In this world there are many people but rarely can I call any of them my friends. This world is a world where the impossible becomes possible. Seek for a way and you shall find it. You may not enjoy the struggle but it will be worth it to feel the pride and understanding of the accomplishments Quote Right

Quote Left what is truth and what is lie? What is real and what is falsity? Truth is one's perception of the current reality and one that is usually beyond reproach, while lie is a variation of one's perception of reality that by the general public is seen as wrong. Real in my oppinion is something ur senses or mind can see or touch, while falsity is a trick of one's reality. Quote Right

Quote Left The most terrifying thing in the world is beauty, it stops breath, causes wars, turns brother against brother and often kills without thought. True beauty is the thing to be most scared of it is the biggest strength and the greatest weakness as it shows the one you reveal yourself to every scar, horror and care you had, to find someone who accepts you scars and all, everything seen and unseen is true love, people are usually shallow which is why true love is so rare.

Quote Left The hardest trial is the finding of true love, it consumes and hardens the hearts of others, it forces one to accept the possibilities of hate and forces one to find the small glimmer of hope that one is loved, when in truth the only person that can love truly in the way people desire is oneself.

Quote Left There are 4 types of terrors; fear, and love, which are often hand in hand. These cousins beget the 3rd, dread. Dread, who in turn, had the 4th procrastination. Of this dark family, the one to fear the most is procrastination, for she seduces the weak with false promises of a life of relaxation and ease with no work, this is a dangerous thought as it leads to deprivation and loss Quote Right
