"Maybe I'll go where I can see stars, he said to himself as the car gained velocity and altitude; it headed away from San Francisco, toward the uninhabited desolation to the north. To the place where no living thing would go. Not unless it felt that the end had come."


Philip K. Dick

"There was another silence. I felt, above all, tired. Tiredness: if there was a constant symptom of the disease in our lives at this time, it was tiredness. At work we were unflagging; at home the smallest gesture of liveliness was beyond us. Mornings we awoke into a malign weariness that seemed only to have refreshed itself overnight."
Joseph O'Neill
"A schoolboy's tale the wonder of an hour."
Lord Byron
"He had his choice, and he liked the worst."
John Ciardi
"His head was pounding and his vision skewed in some way and he was vaguely amazed at being alive and not sure that it was worth it."

"The things that are priceless to my heart carry no currency where we are going."
Suzanne Elizabeth Anderson
"She’d sworn she wouldn’t end up like her little brother, but loneliness didn’t arrive with flashing bulbs and a warning label. The descent was as simple and complex as a faked smile, white lies about being “okay,” and the nod and acceptance as her own peers didn’t delve deeper, shutting the coffin lid for her."
Katherine McIntyre
"Look around you. Everything changes. Everything on this earth is in a continuous state of evolving, refining, improving, adapting, enhancing…changing. You were not put on this earth to remain stagnant."
Steve Maraboli
"Abel. I can’t let you…sell your body.”“The transaction is closer to a rental."

"There is a latent energy in each of us, in all areas of our lives."
Sunday Adelaja
"Man has places in his heart which do not yet exist, and into them enters suffering, in order that they may have existence."
Léon Bloy
"He ached for creation. For life to somehow rise from the drawings in his sketching book. For his own energy, his own impressions to swirl and spin on a canvas. For a dream city he had tacked above his bed."
C.S. Richardson
"It is easy to think of potatoes, and fortunately for men who have not much money it is easy to think of them with a certain safety. Potatoes are one of the last things to disappear, in times of war, which is probably why they should not be forgotten in times of peace."
M.F.K. Fisher
"One of the things you learn in football is that you're only as good as your last outing. I don't like to reflect on what we've done in the past. I'm not a very good storyteller, for one thing. I'd disappoint you. When it's time, I'll talk about the good old days. But it's a sign of old age, reveling in the past."
Chuck Noll
