Echoing Words

Good friends, good books and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

Mark Twain

You can’t stay in your corner of the forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.

Winnie the Pooh

You know I think I need a prison
In order to dream of being free

Blues Traveler
Go Outside & Drive

You must be the change you want to see in the world.

Mahatma Gandhi

I know that I shall meet my fate
Somewhere among the clouds above;
Those that I fight I do not hate
Those that I guard I do not love;
My country is Kiltartan Cross,
My countrymen Kiltartan’s poor,
No likely end could bring them loss
Or leave them happier than before.
Nor law, nor duty bade me fight,
Nor public man, nor cheering crowds,
A lonely impulse of delight
Drove to this tumult in the clouds;
I balanced all, brought all to mind,
The years to come seemed waste of breath,
A waste of breath the years behind
In balance with this life, this death.

William Butler Yeats
An Irish Airman Foresees His Death

I sing myself to sleep at night
I sing myself to sleep

Cracker
Another Song About the Rain

To me, there is no greater act of courage than being the one who kisses first.

Mabel
“Mad About You”

An intelligent hell would be better than a stupid paradise.

Victor Hugo

I am fortune’s fool!

William Shakespeare
Romeo And Juliet

Everybody knows that it’s now or never
Everybody knows that it’s me or you

Leonard Cohen
Everybody Knows
