Love and Dreams - QuotesOn who the flies landed without being chased away by that person, was on her way to death - this was one of the unmistakeable signs. From that time on, I think, dates my obsession with flies. In times of peace, when we all lied still, I made sure to sneak close up to my mother, watching very carefully that no fly would land on her, - I waved my hat over her body, flies don't like wind and movement...

All they have left is cold disdain; that's what marriages live on nowadays. Sometimes I see women who ought to be happy, with whom I could have found companionship, already swallowed up by brutes with as much feeling as an old log.... The Deliriums (contributed by esmerelda) "Just living isn't enough," said the butterfly, "one must also have freedom, sunshine, and a little flower."

(contributed by HWbiolad) Look at my eyes, Faye. One of them is a fake because I lost it in an accident. Since then, I've been seeing the past in one eye and the present in the other. So, I thought I could only see patches of reality, never the whole picture. I felt like I was watching a dream I could never wake up from. Before I knew it... the dream was over.

Jason, the night roars into my ears now... can you hear it?

O You whom I often and silently come where you are, that I may be with you; As I walk by your side, or sit near, or remain in the same room with you, Little you know the subtle electric fire that for your sake is playing within me. O you whom I often and silently come I want to crawl into a world of pillows with you, and just be. (contributed by Megan) The honorary duty of a human being is to love. (contributed by Christine) You said that this is crazy, you're half a world away. And I'm sittin' there and I'm thinkin' but I didn't know what to say.

Tuesdays With Morrie (contributed by Ryan) Regrets are as personal as fingerprints. Music is like painting in sound. You take it into your inner heart and never lose it. It's eternally mysterious. Natasha, to love is to suffer. To avoid suffering, one must not love. But, then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer, to suffer is to suffer.

Love and Death Losing my heart to you is like losing my individuality, but I don't care because I've got you to care about. (contributed by markeijgelsheim@hotmail.com) Dreams and visions are infused into men for their advantage and instruction... Dreams are renewable.
