Xerxes: There will be no glory in your sacrifice. I will erase even the memory of Sparta from the histories! Every piece of Greek parchment shall be burned. Every Greek historian, and every scribe shall have their eyes pulled out, and their tongues cut from their mouths. Why, uttering the very name of Sparta, or Leonidas, will be punishable by death! The world will never know you existed at all!

Most anything out of the mouth or from the tip of the pen of Mark Twain.

You never forget how to fight! It's like beating up a bicycle. ~ Stan Smith

I'm not even being sarcastic even though I would not suggest taking a lot of advice from Stan Smith. I like applying it to my ability to survive even when I get my wires crossed sometimes.

Explanations are such cheap poetry.

Pretty is not a rent I pay to occupy a space marked female.

Pain is inexhaustible, it's only people that get exhausted.

Reality is an illusion, all be it a persistent one.

Believe the praiser & dismiss the praise.

I don't like to be this guy and I'm not trying to be rude. I think that the 'all be it' you have there should be "albeit". I apologize cuz in the post I've written correcting you, I probably have... CERTAINLY have...mistakes that need correcting.

Ok, no prob. There's dyslexia in the fam, I have a touch. In comparison to other relatives it's very slight, so I rarely mention it. Used to drive my Mum (who wrote beautifully btw) & teachers nuts that I eat books, am very articulate but can't write 4 shit. It don't bother me either way, I appreciate & admire talented writers but also appreciate real peep who write like they talk/live. Me personally, growing up in london, going to shit "inner city" state schools & the whole historical/present class system here...it has nt been my experience that those who don't speak/write in the queens english are automatically of lower intelligence/social status. I also (maybe due to not being from here) don't suffer frm the english class inferiority/superiority complex. I love the books but ain't ashamed of the street talk, far frm it.

morningsong

just an FYI: There are 2 kinds of people in the world — those who divide everybody into 2 kinds of people & those who don’t.



When I look up at the night sky, and I know that, yes, we are part of this Universe, we are in this Universe, but perhaps more important than both of those facts is that the Universe is in us.

When I reflect on that fact, I look up — many people feel small, ’cause they’re small and the Universe is big, but I feel big, because my atoms came from those stars.
