"What do you do when your foundation falls apart? I don't know. They don't teach you that in school." Stevo, "SLC Punk".
"Our crusade was so stupid that only an idealist could have thought it up." Jöns, "The Seventh Seal" "Is it so hard to conceive God with one's senses? Why must He hide in a midst of vague promises and invisible miracles? How are we to believe the believers when we don't believe ourselves? What will become of us who want to believe but cannot? And what of those who neither will nor can believe? Why can I not kill God within me? Why does He go on living in a painful, humiliating way? I want to tear Him out of my heart, but He remains a mocking reality which I cannot get rid of. Do you hear me?" Jöns, "The Seventh Seal "Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy **** we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off." Tyler Durden, "Fight Club" "Never shall innocent blood be shed, yet the blood of the wicked shall flow like a river. The Three shall spread their blackened wings and be the vengeful striking hammer of God." Il Duce, "Boondock Saints". |

"Be formless... shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle; it becomes the bottle. You put it into a teapot; it becomes the teapot. Water can flow, or it can crash. Be water, my friend..."
"All kind of knowledge, eventually becomes self knowledge" "Use only that which works, and take it from any place you can find it." "Do not deny the classical approach, simply as a reaction, or you will have created another pattern and trapped yourself there." "A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough." "Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it." "It's not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential." ~Bruce Lee |

"What? i lost my tolerance for the ******** baggage that comes with eating girls out! whats the big deal?" "If you say the smell, so help me i'm gonna slug you." "Not the smell, the smell is good. I'm talking about not being able to do it properly, and my mother brought me up to believe if i cant do something right, i shouldnt do it at all... ofcourse my father told me she gave lousy head." "Atleast you blame yourself for your sexual inadequecies." "No, I blame them. Chicks never help you out, never tell you what to do, right? And most of them are all caught up on the smell factor and so most of the time they just lay there like a deer in headlights. I mean, not for nothing, when a chick goes down on me, I let her know where to go, and what the status is. You gotta handle it like CNN on the weather channel.... constant updates." -(Chasing Amy, 1997) |

" All the stars are gone but one, morning breaks, here comes the Sun. Cross the sky, now sinking fast, show me something built to last."
" There comes a redeemer and he slowly to fades away. There follows a wagon behind him that's loaded with clay. The seeds that are sighed are bursting to bloom and decay.

And I left his dead a** there by the side of the road." All courtesy of Robert Hunter, songwriter of the Grateful Dead |
