BioI'm just me, no pretenses.
I know life isn't always a preety picture, but I still dream.
I love to write just about everything, I'm into politics, creative writing, singing, and all the wonderful arts. Music is a part of my soul. I really apreciate honesty. I know what's it's like to really be hurt and because of that I'm sometimes an introvert.
I love being brainy with literature, but am absolutely dim witted when it comes to math. (though I respect it)
I love witt and sarcasm and doing things completely unexpected,
I love animals though I am not a true vegitarian....I think we need to be concerned with our own kind, and the lack of humanity around the world. (Between a starving cat and a starving child, I would pick the starving child)
When I grow up I plan on making great changes in this world.
(Quotes of the true philosopher)
A man receives only what he is ready to receive... The phenomenon or fact that cannot in any wise be linked with the rest of what he has observed, he does not observe.
-Henry David THoreau
Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.
-Henry David THoreau
The heroic actions are performed by such as are oppressed by the meanness of their lives. As in thickest darkness the stars shine brightest.
-Henry David THoreau
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.
-Emily Dickenson
If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.
-Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Tell me not in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream
For the soul is dead that slumbers
And things are not what they seem
Life is real. Life is earnest
And the grave is not it's goal
Dust thou art, to dust returnest
Was not spoken of the soul
Not enjoyment, and not sorrow
Is our destined end or way
But to act that each tomorrow
Find us farther than today
Art is long and time is fleeting
And our hearts though stout and brave
Still like muffled drums are beating
Funeral marches to the grave
In the world's broad field of battle
In the bivouac of Life
Be not like dumb, driven cattle
Be a hero in the strife
Trust no future, howe'er pleasant
Let the dead past bury its dead
Act, act in the living present
Heart within and God o'erhead
Life of great men all remind us
We can make our lives sublime
And departing leave behind us
Footprints on the sands of time
Footprints that perhaps another
Sailing o'er life's solemn main
A forlorn and shipwrecked brother
Seeing shall take heart again
Let us then be up and doing
With a heart for any fate
Still achieving, still pursuing
Learn to labor and to wait
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind. Absolve you to yourself, and you shall have the suffrage of the world.
-Ralph waldo Emerson
Family quarrels are bitter things. They don't go according to any rules. They're not like aches or wounds; they're more like splits in the skin that won't heal because there's not enough material.
The Crack-Up, 'Notebook O' (ed. by Edmund Wilson, 1945)
-John.F. Fitzergerald
I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving: To reach the port of heaven, we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it, -but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor.
-Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.
Where we love is home, home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts.
-Oliver Wendell Holmes Sr.
(Mean but funny,Quotes for the fatally pesimestic heart)
The scenery was beautiful, but the actors got in front of it.
-Alexander Woolcott (drama critic)
I wonder if it can be possible that, behind this poor mask of disgust and under a steady barrage of abuse, I have ever really succeeded in concealing from you the fact that I look on you as one of the most enjoyable companions and the most admirable human beings it is my good fortune to know.
-Alexander Woolcott (THis one very much describes my English Teacher)
Blessed is the man who, having nothing to say, abstains from giving us wordy evidence of the fact.
-George Elliot
(Quotes for the grevious/dissapointed or just plain emo)
Success is counted sweetest
By those who ne'er succeed.
To comprehend a nectar
Requires sorest need.
Not one of all the purple Host
Who took the Flag today
Can tell the definition
So clear of Victory
As he defeated - dying -
On whose forbidden ear
The distant strains of triumph
Burst agonized and clear!
-Emily Dickenson
(For those we just don't get along with)
"Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far"
-Theodore Rosevelt
"Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go."
-Oscar Wilde
"My words for you, no one can tell, except for maybe,go to hell!"
-A.A. Antonio

People see sadness in your eyes. You seem to be
hurt deeply. You may be unhappy because you are
alone or feel like no one cares about you. Or
it may be because something very awful has
happened to you. Whatever the cause, you go
through each day just waiting for night to come
with sweet relief in the form of your dreams.
But you may have even lost hope in your dreams.
Chin up. Things should get better for you and
there is always at least one person who cares
about you. Have hope.(Image copyrighted to

brought to you by Quizilla
You wish for....a way out
You're tired of having to deal with one day after
another, always the same rutine, never anything
new.
You wish for a way out, a way to escape this place
you call hell.
How you got here, you don't even remember, you've
been here so long.
So long....you're almost afraid to leave.
You've been here so long, what if things have
changed sense then?
Don't be afraid of the unknown.
Sooner or later, someone will take you away from
this place.
But until then, you'll just have to tough it out.
Tough shit, huh?
Element: Time
Positive or Negative: Positive
Elements You Do Get Along With: Fire, Air
Element You Do Not Get Along With: Shadow
You are a "time" person. You are
generally a happy person, and very protective.
You often like to help out "nerds"
being bullied, or anyone for that matter. You
like to keep people positive. You think that
death will never happen to you; in fact, you
don't even realize it exists sometimes. Love to
you is something that is a great power, and you
would like to challenge it and get to know it
better. You have a handful of close friends,
and other than that, you're friendly to just
about everybody. Your difficulty is realizing
that not everyone can be dependent on you, and
that you have to teach others how to defend
themselves instead of you taking all the glory.
