welcome to the jungle: September 2011

Aprendan a soñar, los que se contentan con sacar la lotería.

You can have my isolation; you can have the hate that it brings.

Being good isn't always easy,

no matter how hard I try.

The past is a grotesque animal
And in its eyes you see
How completely wrong you can be.

I wish I could drink like a lady,
I can take one or two at the most.
Three and I’m under the table,
Four and I’m under the host.

-Dorothy Parker-

I'm going to disappear again.

And now my heart stumbles on things I don't know.
This weakness I feel I must finally show.

"When the tides of life turn against you and the current upsets your boat, don't waste those tears on what might have been, just lie on your back and float."

SOMOS FICCIÓN.

in control now

with my defeat,

with bad mistakes

that we're bond to repeat.

And you lean in for your last kiss,

Who in this world can ask me to resist?

Your hands cold as they find my neck,

Oh this love I have found, I detest.

If you carry your childhood with you, you never become older

~Tom Stoppard.

NOT IN KANSAS ANYMORE.

There are never enough hours in the days of a queen, and her nights have too many.

Be reasonable; demand the impossible.

Keep your head high, and your middle finger higher.

Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité, ou la Mort.

While they’re washing their sins, she sings, I do evil things.

"Whatever happened to chivalry? Does it only exist in 80's movies? I want John Cusack holding a boombox outside my window. I wanna ride off on a lawnmower with Patrick Dempsey. I want Jake from Sixteen Candles waiting outside the church for me. I want Judd Nelson thrusting his fist into the air because he knows he got me. Just once I want my life to be like an 80's movie, preferably one with a really awesome musical number for no apparent reason. But no, no, John Hughes did not direct my life."

"To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable."
— C.S. Lewis,

"What if a demon were to creep after you one night, in your loneliest loneliness, and say, ‘This life which you live must be lived by you once again and innumerable times more; and every pain and joy and thought and sigh must come again to you, all in the same sequence. The eternal hourglass will again and again be turned and you with it, dust of the dust!’ Would you throw yourself down and gnash your teeth and curse that demon? Or would you answer, ‘Never have I heard anything more divine’?"

— Friedrich Nietzsche
