Prompts for 8/23-8/29
Quotes:
1. "And there are other memories, still looking for
something to bite,
like fierce, unsatisfied teeth.
They gnaw us to the last bone, devouring
the long silence of all that lies behind us."
-Pablo Neruda
2. "The question is not why fools fall in love. It is expected of them. When smart people fall in love - that's the problem."
-Jessica Zafra
3. "...You know when you pray, you are heard, if not by God, then by yourself. When you pray, you tell yourself what you truly want, what you really need. And once you know these things, you can do nothing but go after them."
-Helen Oyeyemi.
4. It's not
what goes into
your mouth that defiles you but
what comes out of it.

5. …But why is desire suffering?
Because want leaves a world in tatters?
How else but in tatters should a world be?
Maria Elena Cruz Varela
6. “A year, ten years from now, I'll remember this; not why, only that we were here like this, together.”
- Adrienne Rich
7. "Revenge is never a straight line. It's a forest, And like a forest it's easy to lose your way... To get lost... To forget where you came in."
-Kill Bill
8. "There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it."
-- Wilde
9. "Few tragedies can be more extensive than the stunting of life, few injustices deeper than the denial of an opportunity to strive or even to hope, by a limit imposed from without, but falsely identified as lying within."
-- Stephen Jay Gould
10. "Only barbarians forget about their fallen."
-Aleksey Shelvakh.
