better-person persons
You don’t just go to somebody and say, ‘I’m a better person because you’re in my head.
should sporks
Whoever invented the spork should be killed.
color shoes hair
I'm against solutions that are worse than the problem. Like old women who want their hair dyed the color of shoe polish to hide the gray.
cheer people moments
People would cheer throw confetti and then go about breaking the resolutions they had made only moments before.
wind written corporate
History is written by the victors--and when there is no victors, it all winds up in the corporate shredders.
wall fall effort
Walls don't fall without effort.
pain waiting littles
The thing was, if I had found a way to escape- even for just a little while- I knew the pain would be there waiting for me when I got back.
beautiful mean i-can
I can't destroy things so beautiful." "Time will destroy them if you don't. Time destroys everything. But if you destroy them, it will mean something.
drinking people denial
Sometimes, though, you make a pact with yourself. I'll pretend there's nothing wrong if you pretend there's nothing wrong. It's called denial, and it's one of the strongest pacts in the world. Just ask all those people who were still drinking champagne while the Titanic went down.

hands names doe
How easy is murder when one calls it by a different name? How much easier is it for the conscience to condone "reaping" than "killing"-and when one knows that death isn't the end, does it stop the killing hand for fear of retribution, or does it simply make it easier to kill, because, if life continues, how can murder be murder at all?
annoying revelations convenient
Revelations are never convenient, and always annoying.
