Do these reflect your true self?

If there is one door in the castle
you have been told not to go through, you must.
Otherwise you'll just be arranging furniture
in rooms you've already been in.

One's philosophy is not best expressed in words;
it is expressed in the choices one makes.
In the long run, we shape our lives and we shape ourselves.
The process never ends until we die.
And, the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.

To live in this world, you must be able to do three things:
to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones

You are built to pull a cart,
to lift a heavy load and bear it,

The most sublime truth of all
has never been stated or written or sung.
Not because it is far away and can not be reached,
but because it is so intimately close,
closer than anything that can be spoken.

too close to be described, too close to be objectified,
too close to be known in the usual way of knowledge.
The truth of who you are is yours already.
It is already present...

Even in the running away from hurting, there is hurting.

Listen to my story
and everything
will come out true

I was never happy as a child, so it wasn't something I took for granted.
i did'nt grow up as an average, american child.
An average child grows up with an expectation of being happy.

The sad bitter child who grew up too fast,
is hardly ever out of my heart.
With succes all around me, I can still feel
her scared eyes looking out of mine.

which can become a watered-down, occasional hope
that you'll get to tomorrow. Intention without action is useless.

all the things I couldn't afford.
Then I want to move in with them."

but my errors are portals of discovery
and there are times
when a little madness sets me free.

Men, their rights, and nothing more; women, their rights, and nothing less.

If women are supposed to be less rational and more emotional at the beginning of our menstrual cycle when the female hormone is at its lowest level, then why isn't it logical to say that, in those few days, women behave the most like the way men behave all month long?

We've got a generation now who were born with semiequality. They don't know how it was before, so they think, this isn't too bad. We're working. We have our attache' cases and our three piece suits. I get very disgusted with the younger generation of women. We had a torch to pass, and they are just sitting there. They don't realize it can be taken away. Things are going to have to get worse before they join in fighting the battle.
