As the fly bangs against the window attempting freedom while the door stands open, so we bang against death ignoring heaven.
Boring people are a reflection of boring people.
To hit bottom is to fall from grace.
Born a saint, die a sinner - born a sinner, die a saint.
Born to be wild - live to outgrow it.
Happiness in the present is only shattered by comparison with the past.[only if the past was better...if it was worse then you feel good that life is getting better]
Burning desire is the eternal flame.
To buy happiness is to sell soul.
Seeing the light is a choice, not seeing the light is no choice.
Live to learn, learn to live, then teach others.
Thought precedes action, action does not always precede thought.
Buying a lie is one thing, giving it away for free is quite another.
Money is good, love is wealth.
Death is feared as birth is forgotten.
