"The best stories are those where the end is not apparent from where it begins. Revel in unpredictability, embrace ambiguity, be patient with uncertainly, and forgive freely. This is your chance. This is your journey. Don't give it up to fear."

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
there is a rapture on the lonely shore.
There is society, where none intrudes,
by the deep sea, and music in its roar.

Poetry is not the turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

In stories of suicide, I’m no sure who plans harder, the one intending to die, or the one who has to survive their loved one’s death.

The horrible truth is that the worst for us often holds the most power, for it will not let go.

When you are at the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on and pray for a hand.

(flipside) When you see somone hanging at the end of their rope reach down and give them a hand, before they can't hang on any longer.

-Tainted Mikochan

"Progress takes away, what forever took to find."

"Nature;s first greeen is gold.
Her hardest hue to hold
Her early leaf's a flower
But only so an hour
So leaf subsides to leaf
So Eden sank to grief
So dawn goes down to day
Nothing gold can stay."

"Life is a journey, not a desination."

Never forget that only dead fish swim with the stream"
