Here is where I place any cool quotes, poetry, etc, that I run across and have the time to type in. If you have any you would like to share, then email Bryan (me).
"Around the sun we go,
the moon goes round the Earth,
we do not die of
death...we die of vertigo!"
--from The Crow comic book.
"Creature kissing in the rain
Shapeless in the dark again
In the hanging garden
No one sleeps"
-- The Cure/Pornography
THE TIDES OF SIN DRAW TIGHTER AND TIGHTER AND BRIGHTER
THE HOURS BECOME HEAVIER AND HEAVIER AND WEIGHTED
AND THE SHADOWS SMILE, DARK AND WILD
THIS IS WHEN HOPE AND DESIRE COLLAPSE,
THE ARC OF THE DREAM DESCENDS INTO DESPAIR,
WHEN INNOCENT LOVERS DANCE
LIKE ANGELS ON FIRE.
THIS IS WHEN THE NIGHT COMES DOWN,
A HAMMER ON AN ANVIL,
AND THE ONLY ABSOLUTION ACCEPTED
IS A LEGACY OF BRUTALITY.
A SINGLE NOT RINGS ON AND ON AND ON.
-from The Crow comic book.
HERE DWELLS A SNAKE, ONE THOUSAND MILES LONG
COILED, ONE THOUSAND MILES DEEP
EYES LIKE CANDY, IT HAS EYES LIKE CANDY
HARD AND BLUE, BUT SOFT AS KITTENS FEET
OUT OF SIGHT OR IN THE ELEMENT OF LIGHT
IT COULD BE A DEVIL, IT COULD BE AN ANGEL
WITH SPIDERS INSIDE A VISION FROM HELL
ITS SPINE IS A VERTICAL SCREAM
SLOW AS CONCRETE, BLURRED AS A DREAM
IT SPINS ROUND AND DOWN ON AN AXIS OF ATROCITY
FUELED BY INERTIA, DEPTH, RADIUS, AND VELOCITY,
ITS SOUL - A TWISTED WRECKAGE OF DESPAIR AND PAIN
AND THE SPIDERS INSIDE ARE JUST PRAYING FOR RAIN
KILLING TIME KILLING TIME
AND PRAYING FOR RAIN
ONE THOUSAND MILES DEEP
-from The Crow comic book.
IT'S NOT DEATH IF YOU REFUSE IT...
IT IS IF YOU ACCEPT IT.
-from The Crow comic book.
"One owes respect to the living.
To the dead one owes only the truth."
-Voltaire
"Don't let your dreams be clouded,
Aim your sights high,
Search your true feelings--
And Reach For the Sky.
-RATT, Reach for the Sky, 1988.
"Let me savor this time. Let me capture this moment.
We've come this far to find that without a wind in the fire, the burning
can smolder.
Don't let this feeling die, I don't ever want to lose it..."
-Amy Grant, Heart in Motion, 1991.
Hear me speak what's on my mind
Let me give this testimony
Reaffirm that you will find
That you are my one and only.
...
...
Classic case of boy meets girl
Moving in the same direction
You're not asking for the world
I'm not asking for perfection
Just a love that's well designed
For passing the test of time
I'm here to tell you
I'm here to stay
Every hour, every day
Every heartbeat bears your name
Loud and clear they stake my claim
Ask anyone and they'll tell you it's true
Every heartbeat belongs to you
-Amy Grant, Every Heartbeat, Heart in Motion, 1991
Yeah. I know...the last couple REALLY clash with most quotes here. But, as cynical as I am...I am a die hard, dreamy eyed romantic. Stupid things, un-macho things, are what matter to me. Candle-lit dinners, walks in the moonlight, slow dances, stupid little cards, getting somebody flowers for no reason (till she's tired of them), hugs, kisses, a warm smile from the one I love, and companionship...with same, all of these things are important to me. Much like my homepage, which is a clash with the image most people have of me, I am a contradiction unto myself.
LOOK AROUND ME ALL I SEE
THOUSANDS OF FACES WANTING ME
HOW CAN I LEAD?
HOW CAN I RULE?
WHEN I'M KING, KING OF THE FOOLS
WHAT KIND OF KINGDOM HAS NO THRONE?
NO CROWN OR CASTLE DO I OWN
I DON'T HAVE SILVER, GOLD, OR JEWELS
YET I'M A KING, KING OF THE FOOLS
-Twisted Sister, King of the Fools, Come Out and Play,
1985.
