| 2d88055 | Love, a promise delivered already broken. | Lisa Unger | ||
| 673d7fe | When someone we love dies suddenly and tragically, it's like seeing the curvature of the earth. You always knew it was round, a contained sphere floating in space. But when you see the bend in the horizon line, it changes your perspective on everything else. | Lisa Unger | ||
| f4fd923 | Ralph Waldo Emerson thought of weeds as plants "whose virtues had not yet been discovered." | Lisa Unger | ||
| ec37729 | When they're small, they're part of you, on you in bed, showering with you, climbing onto your lap, holding on to your leg. Slowly, slowly, they start to move away, and if you love them, if you want them to feel safe and free to explore the world, you have to let them go. Mostly. | Lisa Unger | ||
| 7977c04 | The human mind, with all its mystery, bears endless study. Doesn't it? | Lisa Unger | ||
| 0ee926f | There is no external refuge." Meaning, you cannot look into the outer world to feel safe, to feel at peace. You cannot look without for understanding, or for justice. You must look within. I" | Lisa Unger | ||
| 0173902 | I think we draw people into our lives...It's as though we broadcast our deepest needs...For better or worse, we attract our teachers, our allies, and sometimes even our own nightmares. | Lisa Unger | ||
| 8a0b77a | Choices turned to consequences, opinions turned to judgments, and admiration turned to envy. Envy curdled everything, like lemon in milk. | Lisa Unger | ||
| 6ab24df | Honestly, I tried not to think about my sister much. Or my mother. I have been guilty of doing what it takes to bury most of my memories when it comes to that- from junk food to booze to drugs, there are few poisons with which I haven't experimented. I've found a million ways to keep the demons in a comfortable, quiet stupor, lazing around on my inner couches. | Lisa Unger | ||
| 531d8af | You know," he said. He paused a minute, as though picking his words carefully. "It's okay to disappoint people sometimes. It's okay for us to say no simply because we don't want to do something." Intellectually," | Lisa Unger | ||
| 196de06 | It was human nature to see only what you want to see, and nothing would change that, no matter what tools people had at their disposal. The truth is only what you think it is. | Lisa Unger | ||
| eeb0cf9 | Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only change form. | Lisa Unger | ||
| d26323b | things disappear and are never found simply because there's too much ground to cover. | Lisa Unger | ||
| 5d05cd8 | I feel that familiar niggle of not wanting to disappoint anyone, ever, for any reason. Another female quirk, isn't it? Always be polite, meet expectations, smile when you don't want to, cry instead of getting angry. Be pleasing. | Lisa Unger | ||
| a05a8c1 | The girl with the pictures on her skin | Lisa Unger | ||
| 9ca37a1 | Ah, gym class. Remember it? Institutionally sanctioned torture for society's misfits. | Lisa Unger | ||
| 8692379 | Give up, she wanted to tell them. You lost. The world is crap, and no amount of communicating is going to change it. | Lisa Unger | ||
| 7f76d79 | Having love in your heart for someone is its own reward. Or punishment, depending on the circumstances. | Lisa Unger | ||
| b63c5aa | He didn't seem like the sharpest tool in the shed. | Lisa Unger | ||
| c825928 | I have started taking the pills and I pray that everyone is right, that I have been sabotaged by my own brain chemicals. And that the little blue pill is going to put things right again. | Lisa Unger | ||
| 0ea44ce | I liked how she never offered any physical comfort. I appreciate people who have a healthy respect for personal boundaries. Our culture is too touchy-feely; everyone wants a hug these days. But Dr. Cooper just sat and was present. | Lisa Unger | ||
| d5ae581 | Ignorance and fear were responsible for so much horror in the world. All the most heinous acts throughout history could be linked to those demons. | Lisa Unger | ||
| e062a5f | It was so much simpler to see other people's wrongs and make them pay. It was so much harder to have compassion, to see yourself in others and find forgiveness. | Lisa Unger | ||
| e4a3dc3 | We are dealing with three types of phenomena in these cases. The first is the winged man; the second is a giant bird, so huge it is a biological impossibility; third, we have a monstrous demon with red eyes, bat's wings, and a body closely human in form. All three are probably interrelated. | John A. Keel | ||
| db6b0d3 | The standard definition of God, "God is light," is just a simple way of saying that God is energy. Electromagnetic energy. He is not a He but an It; a field of energy that permeates the entire universe and, perhaps, feeds off the energy generated by its component parts." | John A. Keel | ||
| e0d33a2 | The concept of a supermind running the universe objectively, without compassion, is not new. Several religions are built around it. Thinking of God in these terms is not heresy but is advanced theology. The old-time God--the big bearded man sitting on a throne in the sky--is dead. | John A. Keel | ||
| bc3c5cb | They are not from outer space. There is no need for them to be. They have always been here. | John A. Keel | ||
| b94a749 | Hell was a translation of sheol, which meant "invisible world" or "the land of the dead." | John A. Keel | ||
| 9f7679d | The widespread use of gold in religious artifacts may be of special significance. Gold is a useless metal. It is too soft to be used in tools or cookware. It is also rare and difficult to mine and extract, especially for primitive peoples. But from the earliest times gold was regarded as a sacred metal, and men who encountered gods were ordered to supply it. Over and over again the Bible tells us how men were instructed to create solid gold.. | John A. Keel | ||
| a86c38f | The earth's magnetic field is probably the culprit in many cases of seemingly inexplicable phenomena. Our planet is pockmarked with magnetic anomalies and aberrations. | John A. Keel | ||
| 26a1cb3 | Ancient priests and builders must have known about the earth's magnetism and its strange fluctuations. They located their temples, mounds, and pyramids in the dead center of magnetic anomalies. And they laid out long, arrow-straight tracks or "leys" between these magnetic points." | John A. Keel | ||
| 41b0770 | Prop 87 out here in California is about lessening our dependence on oil by using alternative fuels, and Bill Clinton comes on at the end of the ad and says, "If Brazil can do it, America can, too!" Since when did America have to buck itself up by saying we could catch up to Brazil? We invented the airplane and the lightbulb, they invented the bikini wax, and now they're ahead?" | Bill Maher | ||
| 99871f7 | say that evil happens when good men do nothing. And the Democrats prove it also happens when mediocre people do nothing. | Bill Maher | ||
| 8162c56 | If somebody asks if you tweeted your penis and your answer is anything other than "No," you tweeted your penis." | Bill Maher | ||
| 71d3825 | New Rule: Stop talking about "the gas prices under Obama." As if he's the guy out there changing the numbers on the sign with that long pole. And while they're at the gas station, Republicans who still think human activity doesn't affect air quality should poke their heads in the men's room." | gas gas-prices humor obama oil | Bill Maher | |
| ad76617 | According to voluminous Twitter postings the day of the shooting by Caitie Parker, one of Loughner's friends since high school, he was "left wing," "a political radical," "quite liberal," and "a pot head."2 If any public figure influenced this guy, my money's on Bill Maher." | Ann Coulter | ||
| a829370 | Suicide is a man's way of telling God, you can't fire me, I quit." -Bill Maher" | Angela Roquet | ||
| caf6c0e | Suicide is man's way of telling god, you can't fire me, I quit." -Bill Maher" | Angela Roquet | ||
| d083f4a | New Rule: Apple's next device must be a computer that you control with your tongue. Thanks for eliminating the keyboard and the mouse, but pointing and pushing at things already seems too complicated and tiring. We're Americans--and until you free our hands from the computer entirely, we can never attain our ultimate goal: Web surfing while eating and masturbating. | humor laziness technology | Bill Maher | |
| a9bb942 | New Rule: It's okay for the president to play ball in the house. It's easy to judge and say this scene detracts from the dignity of the White House--until you consider the end zone is between Clinton's semen stain and where Bush OD'd on a pretzel. | politics | Bill Maher | |
| 372dc01 | Bill Maher, Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens have all been frustrated by this question: Why is the Left refusing to lift a finger against the most radical, dangerous, socially conservative and oppressive religion on earth? Author | Milo Yiannopoulos | ||
| b50e193 | bewildering feeling of being rushed, things are happening too quick. Too fast. I figured I couldn't get into any worse trouble than murder. Johnny and I would be hiding for the rest of our lives. Nobody but Dally would know where we were, and he couldn't tell anyone because he'd get jailed again for giving us that gun. If Johnny got caught, they'd give him the electric chair, and if they caught me, I'd be sent to a reformatory. I'd heard ab.. | S.E. Hinton | ||
| 17c4564 | I could never understand people being scared of things they didn't know nothing about. | S.E. Hinton | ||
| 2171c08 | Your back was in flames, that's why!" I was surprised. "It was? Golly, I didn't feel it! It don't hurt." | S.E. Hinton |
