"Who knows how to make love stay?.....
Tell love you want a momento of it and obtain a lock of its hair.
Burn the hair in a dime-store incense burner with yin/yang symbols on three sides.
Face southwest.
Talk fast over the burning hair in a convincingly exotic language. Remove the ashes of the burnt hair and use them to paint a moustache on your face.
Find love.
Tell it you are someone new.
It will stay....."

Tom Robbins.

“Love is the ultimate outlaw.
It just won't adhere to any rules.
The most any of us can do is to sign on as its accomplice.
Instead of vowing to honour and obey, maybe we should swear to aid and abet.
That would mean that security is out of the question.
The words "make" and "stay" become inappropriate.
My love for you has no strings attached.
I love you for free.”

Tom Robbins

"It occurred to her that despite the failure of her marriage, the failure of her career, despite her hangover and chronic horniness, she suddenly was feeling rather light and giddy.
She couldn't understand it.
Was she simply too shallow to suffer indefinitely, or was she too wise to become attached to her suffering, too feisty to permit it to rule her life?
She voted for wise and feisty, and walked on, kicking leaves."

"Just because you've got the cutest arse west of Chicago and north of L.A. doesn't mean you have to go around with your head up it.
Leaves no room for me." - Half Asleep In Frog Pajamas- Tom Robbins

"If you believe in peace, act peacefully; if you believe in love, acting lovingly; if you believe every which way, then act every which way, that's perfectly valid - but don't go out trying to sell your beliefs to the system.
You end up contradicting what you profess to believe in, and you set a bum example.
If you want to change the world, change yourself."

Tom Robbins

“The decision to kiss for the first time is the most crucial in any love story.
It changes the relationship of two people much more strongly than even the final surrender; because this kiss already has within it that surrender.”

Tom Robbins.

“When two people meet and fall in love, there's a sudden rush of magic. Magic is just naturally present then.
We tend to feed on that gratuitous magic without striving to make any more.
One day we wake up and find that the magic is gone.
We hustle to get it back, but by then it's usually too late, we've used it up.
What we have to do is work like hell at making additional magic right from the start.
It's hard work, but if we can remember to do it, we greatly improve our chances of making love stay.”

“When they tell you to grow up, they mean stop growing.”

Tom Robbins

“There's always the same amount of good luck and bad luck in the world. If one person doesn't get the bad luck, somebody else will have to get it in their place.
There's always the same amount of good and evil, too.
We can't eradicate evil, we can only evict it, force it to move across town.
And when evil moves, some good always goes with it.
But we can never alter the ratio of good to evil.
All we can do is keep things stirred up so neither good nor evil solidifies.
That's when things get scary.
Life is like a stew, you have to stir it frequently, or all the scum rises to the top.”

wonderful thread {{{Jesse}}}.. wanted to stop by and drop off some hugs & blessings for ya

“We waste time looking for the perfect lover, instead of creating the perfect love.”

Tom Robbins

“When we're incomplete, we're always searching for somebody to complete us.
When, after a few years or a few months of a relationship, we find that we're still unfulfilled, we blame our partners and take up with somebody more promising.
This can go on and on--series polygamy--until we admit that while a partner can add sweet dimensions to our lives, we, each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment.
Nobody else can provide it for us, and to believe otherwise is to delude ourselves dangerously and to program for eventual failure every relationship we enter.”

Tom Robbins
