    From The Ballad of Reading Gaol by Oscar Wilde :

    Each man kills the thing he loves
    By each let this be heard,
    Some do it with a bitter look,
    Some with a flattering word,
    The coward does it with a kiss,
    The brave man with a sword!

    A few on Friendship............

    As your best friend I'll always pick you up when you fall,...... after I finish laughing.

    My friend, remember that without stupidity there wouldn't be intelligence, and without ugliness there wouldn't be beauty, so the world needs you after all.

    True friendship is when you walk into their house and your WiFi connects automatically.

    ^ :)) :)) :))

    From jfk:
    For we are opposed around the world
    By a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy
    That relies primarily on covert means
    For expanding its sphere of influence
    On infiltration instead of invasion
    On subversion instead of elections
    On intimidation instead of free choice
    On guerrillas by night instead of armies by day
    It is a system which has conscripted
    Vast human and material resources
    Into the building of a tightly knit
    Highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic
    Intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations
    Its preparations are concealed, not published
    Its mistakes are buried, not headlined
    Its dissenters are silenced, not praised

    I wonder if he was inspired by Tennyson?
    It was either that.....or the priesthood

    "I wish I could set you free... but your prison is in there."
    (Camille, Quantum Of Solace)
    Sometimes I can't break free from my own mind and enjoy some moments as they are or were. I overthink and play things back on my head, beating myself up for things I have no control of now. It eventually goes away but at my many lows it comes back, back to the hole I've created for myself. My own, personal prison. That line truly touched me on my most recent viewing of Quantum.
    I don't have anywhere or anyone where I can be myself and express my own feelings and emotions and feel free, nor do (or will for a long time) have someone to share them with.
    That's what keeps me alone.
    This is as close as I'll ever get to getting it out.
    I couldn't hold it, Barbel. I'm sorry in advance for being so damned miserable on my last few posts. At least I had the decency of putting up a spoiler.
