Well??

love is a wonderful thing, and its not all the sugery good stuff that makes it great, its fighting for what you want and making it thru the bad stuff that makes love wonderful

"And if there were only some way of contriving that a state or an army should be made up of lovers and their loves, they would be the very best governors of their own city, abstaining from all dishonour, and emulating one another in honour; and when fighting at each other's side, although a mere handful, they would overcome the world."

~Plato, Symposium

Book: It was inevitable that she should accept any inconsistency and cruelty from her deity as all good worshippers do from theirs. All gods who receive homage are cruel. All gods dispense suffering without reason. Otherwise they would not be worshipped. Through indiscriminate suffering men know fear and fear is the most divine emotion. It is the stones for altars and the beginning of wisdom. Half gods are worshipped in wine and flowers. Real gods require blood.

Yay for this thread!!! I love quotes. I have a quote book that I have been filling for years. The pages are literally falling out because I've read it and re-read it so much. My favorite quote of the moment is:
"Obstacles are put in your way to see if what you want is worth fighting for."

Out comes the quote book. You ladies gave me some new ones to write down. Thanks!!!

My favorite literary quote (it is long but worth it!):

Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate, or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such. - Henry Miller

ohhhh that is a good one Aurora. It's going in the book! :)

"Absense is to love as wind is to fire, it extinguishes the small and enkindles the great" - Comte De Bussy Rabutin
