I am listing quotes.
These have impacted me, whether I relate to them, or was frightened to death.
Every moment of one's existence one is growing into more or retreating into less. One is always living a little more or dying a little bit.
Norman Mailer
I would say a lot of the emotion in what I do is a sort of a thankfulness for those energies being around, because there's been points in my life when they weren't around, and it's a real sort of miserable existence.
John Frusciante
“The great thing is, if one can, to stop regarding all the unpleasant things as interruptions in one's "own" or "real" life. The truth is, of course, that what one regards as interruptions are precisely one's life.”
CS. Lewis
Just because everything is different doesn't mean anything has changed. ~Irene Peter
Because things are the way they are, things will not stay the way they are. ~Bertold Brecht
“For if I try to seize this self of which I feel sure, if I try to define and to summarize it , it is nothing but water slipping through my fingers...This very heart which is mine will forever remain indefinable to me.”
Albert camus
In the last analysis, the individual person is responsible for living his own life and for "finding himself." If he persists in shifting his responsibility to somebody else, he fails to find out the meaning of his own existence.
Thomas Merton
Man's love is of man's life a part; it is a woman's whole existence. In her first passion, a woman loves her lover, in all the others all she loves is love.
Lord Byron
Self-control means wanting to be effective at some random point in the infinite radiations of my spiritual existence.
Franz Kafka
::Edit:: I never thought of myself as masochistic until the day I repeated behavior I knew was bad for me. Was I expecting it to change?
I give up.
