Harry: “Tell me one last thing, Is this real? Or has this been happening inside my head?”

Dumbledore: “Of course it’s happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?”

I love this…

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

My all time favorite lyric

The Riot Before – You Can’t Sexy Dance to Punk Rock

“A scientist a golden age
Impending finitude of progression made
And the doom of knowing knowing’s limits
That they could come any day
A selfish wish apply a brake
Slow the with which we fill up the page
Cause the closing of the covers colors life in inescapable gray
We have found once the friction is lifted
Inertia becomes our sworn enemy”

“you cant hug a photograph or kiss a melody but you can still relive memories. im encased in tattered transparencies and worn out grooves smoothed out by use from a needle tracing impressions of direction. you can pick up my broken body, dust me off, remember that i tried, remember that we all tried. maybe this time the words will make sense. is it so hard to lose your thoughts like mine? it balms the mind with painless numbing novacaine neverminds.”

@downtherabbithole, Love it, good one.

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see.
It’s getting hard to be someone but it all works out.
It doesn’t matter much to me.

Always know sometimes think it’s me, but you know I know and it’s a dream.
I think I know of thee, ah yes, but it’s all wrong.
That is I think I disagree.

I will give your heart a place to rest when everything you had has turned and left.

“Look around and you’ll see that at times it feels like no one really cares.
It gets me down but I’m still gonna try to do what’s right, I know that there’s a difference between sleight of hand, and giving everything you have.
There’s a line drawn in the sand, I’m working up the will to cross it.”
Thrice – “The Artist in the Ambulance”

“People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that’s bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they’re afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they’re wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It’s all in how you carry it. That’s what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you’re letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain.”

Jim Morrison

All the art of living lies in a fine mingling of letting go and holding on (Henry Ellis)
