"To you alone it is given to know the truth about the gods and deities of the sky...The innermost groves of far-off forests are your abodes.And it is you who say that the shades of the dead seek not the silent land of Erebus and the pale halls of pluto;rather,you tell us that the same spirit has a body again elsewhere,and that death,if what you sing is true,is but the mid-point of long life. ~Lucan Pharsalia - c.60CE~We talked like warrior poets,and we fought for scotland(BraveHeart) IP: Logged |

“Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires courage.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson YOU HAVE TO BE READY FOR RIDICULE
Leonardo packing up the Mona Lisa in 1516 to live near the King of France
You have to be ready for ridicule The plane plops on the beach in 1903 after just a minute You have to be ready for ridicule You silkscreen Marilyn Monroe all in gold in the fall of '62 You have to be ready for ridicule You get an idea that the continents are all adrift on thick plates of the earth You have to be ready for ridicule You saw a saucer on the high sands of time You have to be ready for ridicule You don't think a mall should be built on a meadow You have to be ready for ridicule You'd like a nation wide, affordable non-profit health care system You have to be ready for ridicule — Ed Sanders IP: Logged |

"To some, an awakening to the greater channels of power; to others, more spirituality than materiality. To others, the karmic influences have reached their changing point, that the vibrations may be brought one to another. In transformation comes a light for those that look for same."

"I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day." ~ Vincent Van Gogh"Night, the beloved. Night, when words fade and things come alive. When the destructive analysis of day is done, and all that is truly important becomes whole and sound again. When man reassembles his fragmentary self and grows with the calm of a tree." ~ Antoine de Saint-Exupéry "I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night." ~ Sarah Williams (1837-1868) "The stars hang bright above, silent, as if they watched the sleeping earth." ~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834) "Be humble for you are made of earth. Be noble for you are made of stars." ~ Serbian proverb IP: Logged |
