Keep a book of quotes that influence me (a la A Walk to Remember)

Any that got you?

One of my Favs

From : The Life Before Her Eyes

"William James, that most American philosopher, once advised: "begin to be now what you will be hereafter". One might ask how? Our deepest guide in our beginning to be, is our imagination. Our ability to project, and mold our future selves from the myriad possibilities before us. And to imagine takes courage and effort. But it gives us hope too, hope that we can author our own destinies, hope that rightness of the decisions we make now will be borne out in the future. As much as we can be overwhelmed by the world, we can also draw hope from it. From beauty, from promise, from the simple fact that we have the talent to imagine our future selves from all the possible lives that pass before our eyes. We must imagine our lives well. We must engage our conscience. Conscience is the voice of God in the nature and heart of man. "

Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust,and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems,and when you're down,you never think you'll be up again,but life goes on.

I have 2 main themes and they kind of seem to contradict each other but motivate me in the same way.

"In this world..a man by himself..is nothing.." - A Thin Red Line

"What man is a man that does not try to make the world better."- Kingdom of Heaven

" Y'all got on this boat for different reasons, but y'all come to the same place. So now I'm asking more of you than I have before. Maybe all. Sure as I know anything, I know this - they will try again. Maybe on another world, maybe on this very ground swept clean. A year from now, ten? They'll swing back to the belief that they can make people... better. And I do not hold to that. So no more runnin'. I aim to misbehave. " - Love this line.


"Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse... but you take a boat in the air that you don't love... she'll shake you off just as sure as the turn of the worlds. Love keeps her in the air when she ought to fall down... tells you she's hurting before she keels. Makes her a home."


"No. No, no no no. frick you, you don't owe it to yourself man, you owe it to me. Cuz tomorrow I'm gonna wake up and I'll be 50, and I'll still be doin' this shite. And that's all right. That's fine. I mean, you're sittin' on a winnin' lottery ticket. And you're too much of a pussy to cash it in, and that's bullshite. 'Cause I'd do frickin' anything to have what you got. So would any of these frickin' guys. It'd be an insult to us if you're still here in 20 years. Hangin' around here is a frickin' waste of your time."
