"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms



"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."
~ Salman Rushdie, The Ground Beneath Her Feet

The Journey...

"If I listened long enough to you
I'd find a way to believe that it's all true
Knowing that you lied straight-faced while I cried
Still I look to find a reason to believe..."

"Ever seen a blind man cross the road
tryna' to make the other side
Ever seen a young girl growing old
tryna' to make herself a bride
So what becomes of you my love
When they have finally stripped you of
The handbags and the gladrags
that your poor Grandad had to sweat so he could buy..."

    "Let us thank God when true love comes then your
    heart will be awakened from its sleep, a
    miracle will be revealed.
    And you will know that love from your past was
    but a counterfeit." Elizabeth Barrett Browning
