• ""Maybe they're finding momentary relief from the existential terror of existence." Will the krill from Happy Feet 2 "My darling girl, when will you understand that normal isn't necessarily a virtue. It rather denotes a lack of courage" Alice Hoffman “People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and redeemed; never throw out anyone.” Audrey Hepburn "When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace." -Jimi Hendrix "I reject your reality and substitute my own"- Adam Savage "A day without laughter is a day wasted." - Charlie Chaplin "Somewhere, something incredible is waiting." - Carl Sagan "Never let your sense of morals get in the way of doing what's right." - Isaac Asimov "The only true currency in this bankrupt world is what we share with each other when we're uncool." ~ Lester Bangs (Philip Seymour Hoffman), "Almost Famous" "Well, see, that's my whole point. I mean you could've been born a single cell organism on the planet Zortex. In fact, given the odds, it's probably more likely, but you weren't. You were born a human being. And not just any human being in the history of human beings, but a human being that gets to be alive today. That gets to listen to all kinds of music, that gets to eat food from every culture, that gets to download porn off the internet. So really, you have everything to live for." ~ Gustin Nash writing for the character Charlie Bartlett “Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it. Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many. Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books. Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders. Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations. But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.” -Buddha "Now, what are you going to do when they try to 'fix' your face and make it all 'pretty'? What are you going to do when they ask you to go against everything you believe in just to make a dollar? What are you going to do when they come for you? When they try to clean you up? Are you going to say 'f*** you!"? NO! You gonna throw a brick? NO! You gonna throw a fist? NO! You're gonna sing about it! I wanna hear you sing about it!" - Gerard Way"
