Quote Left Much have I travell'd in the realms of gold, And many goodly states and kingdoms seen; Round many western islands have I been Which bards in fealty to Apollo hold. Oft of one wide expanse had I been told That deep-brow'd Homer ruled as his demesne; Yet did I never breathe its pure serene Till I heard Chapman speak out loud and bold: Then felt I like some watcher of the skies When a new planet swims into his ken; Or like stout Cortez when with eagle eyes He star'd at the Pacific--and all his men Look'd at each other with a wild surmise-- Silent, upon a peak in Darien.

Quote Left I am one of those who believe that spiritual progress is a rule of human life, but the approach to perfection is slow and painful.

Quote Left Let the heart speak! knowing its mind and own place, knowing its opulent space -- knowing our lies and truths, the shallow or depth of window-eyes, the soul that records our breaks and ties... the heart, a poet’s lexicon Quote Right
Quote Left I believe God has a plan...and all will work-out in His way and time. I don't believe that He wants animals to destroy one another in order to survive. We are missing something in our understanding of creation and Divine Purpose. Free Will is not interpreted correctly, speaking of man's profound relationship to his social and physical environments. We have far more control over things, than mankind sees, and when he does, is willing to consciously admit to his soul. Quote Right

Quote Left What is given needs time to illuminate the world. Effortlessly, nothing gives birth to a greater truth and understanding. We are of the same blood but yet so distant and different. We need to speak and listen. Reinvent ourselves and connect. Illuminate this dark world. Quote Right
Quote Left There are not many who really know the meaning of the word love, but those who do neither try to explain nor force it nor let it speak their language but only its own. Quote Right

Quote Left p.s. what's more beautiful than a smile that is new...when midnight speaks let your soul sing... Quote Right
Quote Left Pornography is deeper than sex on a screen. just like any content pornography speaks to some truths about who we are, fears hopes and dreams. I can make this argument that pornography offers a true moment of honesty to ourselves. Because why the hell is a video titled Horny BBW Step Mom Gets Fucked Like a Slut By Her Young Stepson have 1.6 million views. Quote Right
Quote Left Kindness is a language understood by all, transcending all barriers; speak it often and fluently. - Aloo Denish Obiero Quote Right
Quote Left Majestic heralds in form of misty fog silently convey the roar of yearning mountains. The eternal silence of sea giggling n tickling the feet, display the clamor of a child. Dancing rainbows over restless waves invite for ballad. Silently pouring rain wipes off the tears n fears, silent mentor calls on the terrace to show how quietly it washes off what's not desired. Dense forests, gorgeous moon, twinkling stars......silence speaks Quote Right

Quote Left Hail fellow, speak what you believe and watch your deeds, lest you deceive by conduct, values you profess. Caprice, says spider, spins in stress a whimsy-web, not worth the weave. from my poem WHAT WHIMSY WEBS WE WEAVE, posted at Poetry Soup Reason A. Poteet Quote Right
Quote Left "My hand is the pen to write words. My mouth is the pen to speak words. A writer must write. So write on." Quote Right
Quote Left I have learned more from Silence than anything I have ever read nor heard preached. Quieting myself from the chatter of the world, from egoistic, pompous platforms, the many scientific podiums raucously orating -- God is always speaking to us positively within the Silence, while the Devil, a voluminous orchestra of brassy-pride, doubts and fears rattling our physical senses, negatively affecting our thought processing. Silence is our larger ear, wax free:) Quote Right
Quote Left The less one speaks,the more one hears. Quote Right

Quote Left God gave to man free will, carrying with it the power of choice, leading to differing views becoming the common framework of mankind. Nowhere in this creation, did it speak of imposing one's will upon another ( that was man's alone ), thus destroying the origin and ideal. The challenge lies with gathering these strands of diversity that can be woven into a tapestry that endures beyond a single thread. This fabric of humanity is the remnant to survive. Quote Right
Quote Left Foolish people have an imprudent mentality, putting at risk their life once they have reached the peak of their madness. Quote Right
