Quote Left I think it ticks God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don’t notice it. Quote Right
Quote Left I loathe the expression 'What makes him tick.' It is the American mind, looking for simple and singular solution, that uses the foolish expression. A person not only ticks, he also chimes and strikes the hour, falls and breaks and has to be put together again, and sometimes stops like an electric clock in a thunderstorm. Quote Right

Quote Left We all run on two clocks. One is the outside clock, which ticks away our decades and brings us ceaselessly to the dry season. The other is the inside clock, where you are your own timekeeper and determine your own chronology, your own internal weather and your own rate of living. Sometimes the inner clock runs itself out long before the outer one, and you see a dead man going through the motions of living. Quote Right

Member Quotes About Ticks

Quote Left The heart is feeling organ more than a reasoning organ. I would be willing to bet, that on a subatomic level, the ticks and tocks are always disagreeing. Quote Right
Quote Left When I say the word 'trolls' I don't mean just the people in public who chuck bricks at windows. Also talking about the ones who do it when you turn around. They have a pencil sharpened that says 'empathetic oath' - it becomes a shiv if you catch them throwing rocks. Turns out sticks and stones absolutely will hurt you, if they're lies about you told to everyone else and they are ignorant enough to believe it. That fades, along with your responsibilities. Liberation through betrayal. Quote Right
Quote Left The nature of Nature is bitter survival, from Winter’s bleak fury till Spring’s brief revival.
