“If the young are not initiated into the tribe they will burn down the village just to feel its warmth.”

(African Proverb)

“People think a soul mate is your perfect fit, and that’s what everyone wants. But a true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

A true soul mate is probably the most important person you’ll ever meet, because they tear down your walls and smack you awake. But to live with a soul mate forever? Nah. Too painful. Soul mates, they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave.

A soul mates purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, then introduce you to your spiritual master…”

Elizabeth Gilbert, ”Eat, Pray, Love”

“The actuality that the heart does not want to feel, doesn’t negate the certitude that it once felt and will still feel.”

Itohan Eghide, ”The Book of Maxims, Poems and Anecdotes”

“Torture?” she asked with a laugh. “My first piece of information I’ll divulge to you? I wouldn’t recommend trying to torture me. I dislike it and grow sulky under pincers. It’s a fault.”

Kresley Cole, ”The Warlord Wants Forever”

”Plara, în schimb, îşi revenise. Trăise clipa cea mai îngrozitoare în luminoasa substanţă portocalie a globului carnivor, când i se păruse că o putere ce nu concepea împotrivire punea stăpânire pe raţiunea ei.
Nu era ceva asemănător unei descărcări electrice, ci altceva, o forţă pe care o intuise vie, înzestrată cu voinţă, senzaţia că se află în puterea cuiva (poate că aşa se simte musca în pânza păianjenului sau şoarecele sub privirea hipnotică a şarpelui) şi teama că tensiunea insuportabilă va atinge o limită pe care mintea nu e în stare s-o îndure, teama că va înnebuni.”

Vladimir Colin, ”A zecea lume”

”Înaintez cu grijă, încet,
Pe un drum
Pe care îl tai eu însămi
Pășind:
Ca să știu să mă întorc,
Presar în urmă
Fărâme de litere și de cuvinte.
Sunt pornită de mult,
Mi s-au terminat
Puținele silabe pe care le avusesem
Merinde de drum,
Din fericire, am descoperit
Că totul
Poate fi transformat în cuvinte
Și am continuat să înaintez
Presărând
Vorbele în care mă destram
Cum se destramă un pulovăr vechi
În capetele de lână-ncrețită de atâta purtare…”

Ana Blandiana, ”Poveste”

“You’re going to make it;
You’re going to be at peace;
You’re going to create, and love, and laugh, and live;
You’re going to do great things.”

Germany Kent

“I await your sentence with less fear than you pass it. The time will come when all will see what I see.”

Giordano Bruno

I know it’s hard to reach you
I know it’s hard to breathe
I know it’s hard to be you sometimes
I can’t imagine what that means

This must be someone else’s story
I can’t follow what you’ve planned
How can this be about me
Am I supposed to understand

Like a ship on the ocean
Heading out to sea
You can hardly see it now
It’s a lot like you
Lost like me

You’re still looking for redemption
Still can’t find a trace
If there is nothing after
There’ll be no saving grace

I’m giving you control now
I need some kind of sign
Come take away this sorrow now
I gave you all that’s mine

Like a ship on the ocean
Heading out to sea
You can hardly see it now
It’s a lot like you

Like a ship on the ocean
Heading out to sea
You can hardly see it now
It’s a lot like you
Lost like me

”Nu vorbi repede, căci asta-i semn de sminteală. Ia-ţi ce ţi se cuvine prin convingere, nu prin forţă. Atribuie zeilor faptele tale bune. Fă-ţi provizii de înţelepciune pentru călătoria de la tinereţe la bătrâneţe, căci aceasta e mai sigură decât toate celelalte bunuri.”

Confucius, ”Pilde și cugetări din înțelepciunea popoarelor” (despre Bias)

“Lipsa iubirii naște monștri, iar apoi prezența ei îi face nemuritori.”

Roberto Kuzmanovic

“Iubirea fără onestitate nu merită să fie numită iubire.”

Alex Michaelides, ”The Silent Patient”

“Am vrut să te smulg din suflet
şi să te arunc în vidul ăsta care ne desparte.
În zadar,
în zadar…
Da, iubitul meu,
Stă neantul între noi.”

Aimée, ”Strălucind mai mult decât niciodată”

“We have sentiment; we have emotionality, sensuality, sexuality; we have remembrances of something which we have thought as love. But actually, brutally, we have no love.”

Jiddu Krishnamurti

Melodie de: Interpol

You make me lose my buttons, oh yeah, you make me spit
I don’t like my clothes anymore
We’re spending time and money, yeah, you’re colder than yourself
Now we’re moving, now we’re taking control

You make me lose my buttons, oh yeah, you make me spit
I don’t like my clothes anymore
You take me to New Orleans, yeah, you put me to the test
I know what my heart is for

You reach out for a blanket, I said, girl, you’ve got something
I love how you wear it
Now we’re spending time and money, yeah, you’re colder than yourself
Now we’re moving, now we’re taking control

Love will get you down

My love’s a laboratory, I set all my pets free
So, baby, you should sleep with me
I make trips to the bathroom and my friends all have true grit
I am speckled like a leopard

Put a lid on Shirley Temple, yeah, you make sleek kills
Yeah, you travel, you travel
You park me in your Buick, you sing songs into my lips
Well, I am speckled like a leopard, just like a leopard

Trust will get you down

I love the way
You put me in the big house
I love the way
You put me in the big house

If I get there early, will it be the right time?
Our heaven is just waiting so put your hand into mine
If I get too surly, will you take that in stride?
Our boat is just there waiting, so put that little hand in mine

And speak when you’re spoken of
Catch up on your sleep, girl, when you wear that body glove
You’re acting on initiative, you’re spelling out your love
You shouldn’t be alone in there, you could be above ground

All I want is to be the very best for you
All I want is to do the very best by you
Oh, this time
There’ll be no life of crime

Circle around me now, baby, it’ll be okay
‘Cause we all go downtown sometimes
Somehow, baby, we’ll beat this mess
It’s the time, fuck the surface, to meet the specialist

That time away from me will get you down

I love the way
You put me in the big house
I love the way
You put me in the big house

If I get there early, will it be the right time?
Our heaven is just waiting so put that hand into mine
If I get too surly, will you take that in stride?
Our boat is just there waiting, so put your little hand in mine

And speak when you’re spoken of
Catch up on your sleep when you wear that body glove
You’re acting on initiative, you’re spelling out your love
You shouldn’t be alone in there, you could be above ground

You’re frustrated, then go
You’re frustrated, then go

Honey bee, we should be through with this
Your packaged eyes, your vicious lips
You could be young, but you’re out of touch
If this love’s been done, then what’s the rush?

I’m a specialist in hope and I’m not registered to vote
Won’t you come into my barrio? We’ll see if you can float
I’m a specialist in hope and I’m not registered to vote
Won’t you come into my barrio? We’ll see if you can float
