"you're gonna need yourself to get thru life"
- Sarahlee, my sister and all-time hero
i speak without reservation from what i know and who i am. i do so with the understanding that all people should have the right to offer their voice to the chorus whether the result is harmony or dissonance, the worldsong is a colorless dirge without the differences that distinguish us, and it is that difference which should be celebrated not condemned.
- Ani Difranco
"Risk! Risk anything! Care no more for the opinions of others, for those voices. Do the hardest thing on earth for you. Act for yourself. Face the truth."
"The more sand that has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it."
"The world is like a mirror; frown at it, and it frowns at you. Smile and it smiles, too."
"The true test of character is...how we behave when we don't know what to do."
"So live that you can look any man in the eye and tell him to go to hell."
"If it's a good idea . . . go ahead and do it. It is much easier to apologize than it is to get permission." "Fear less, hope more; Whine less, breathe more; Talk less, say more; Hate less, love more; And all good things are yours." "Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as it nothing had happened" "I had a linguistics professor who said that it's man's ability to use language that makes him the dominant species on the planet. That may be. But I think there's one other thing that separates us from animals. We aren't afraid of vacuum cleaners." "Anyone who robs peter to pay paul, can always depend on the support of paul" "All I want is a warm bed a kind word and ultimate power over the entire world" "It takes a very strong-willed aetheist to shout "out-moded-concepts-on-a-crutch" when they stub their toe" "If Life hands you lemons today, smile and give thanks. Then when Life isn't looking, give him a quick knee to the groin. That'll learn him." "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man." Freedom lies in being bold.
If you do not find peace in yourself, you will never find it
anywhere else.
Live so that your friends can defend you, but never have to.
Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
There is no revenge so complete as forgiveness.
Rule No. 1 is, don't sweat the small stuff. Rule No. 2 is,
it's all small stuff.
It is enough that I am of value to somebody today.

always the problem of finding the solution."
