# About me
"When you stand in front of me and look at me, what do you know of the griefs that are in me and what do I know of yours. And if I were to cast myself down before you and tell you, what more would you know about me than you know about hell when someone tells you it is hot and dreadful? For that reason alone we human beings ought to stand before one another as reverently, as reflectively, as lovingly, as we would before the entrance of hell." - Franz Kafka"Many people would sooner die than think; in fact, they do so." - Bertrand Russell
"The demand for certainty is one which is natural to man, but is nevertheless an intellectual vice." – Bertrand Russel
"Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom, in the pursuit of truth as in the endeavour after a worthy manner of life." - Bertrand Russell
"Many people are too well-educated to speak with a full mouth, they have no qualms however to speak with an empty head." - Oscar Wilde
"If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; however if I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you become that." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance." - Oscar Wilde
"Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves." - Henry David Thoreau
"Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old." - Franz Kafka
"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind." - Bertrand Russell
"There is no worse death than the end of hope." - Pelagius
"Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain but it takes character and self control to be understanding and forgiving." - Dale Carnegie
"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein
"In Germany they came first for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time no one was left to speak up." – Martin Niemoeller
"I have lived in the pursuit of a vision, both personal and social. Personal: to care for what is noble, for what is beautiful, for what is gentle; to allow moments of insight to give wisdom at more mundane times. Social: to see in imagination the society that is to be created, where individuals grow freely, and where hate and greed and envy die because there is nothing to nourish them. These things I believe, and the world, for all its horrors, has left me unshaken." – Bertrand Russell
"The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts." – Bertrand Russell
"Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones. I am not afraid." – Marcus Aurelius

All your quotes are from pretentious assholes who don't give a damn for anyone else! They don't care, they have their own success!!! To them, more suicides are of no concern!!!!! But then again, nobody gives a flying fuck1!!! They're all too busy living their ignorant, happy lives to give a damn for anyone else!!!!!! Nope, no care at all1!!!!! It's all just bullshit lies!

I'm okay, I suppose. It isn't raining any harder than usual. How about you?

Winter is back. It's been snowing today and we had no electricity for 4 1/2 hours. It's amazing how everything stands still when there's no electricity.

You have my sympathies. It is an interesting observance - your world bereft of electricity. It's as if by draining the artificial power from the air, a different kind takes hold, and makes for an eerie atmosphere.

Well, my standards are pretty low now since 2011 sucked so bad.

BaalSoulslayer In reply to xAntithesis5 [2012-01-03 20:43:46 +0000 UTC]
So are mine. 2011 was pretty awful for me too. It's motivating though, because I want to do everything I can so 2012 won't suck just as badly.

I'm going to try to be more proactive as well. I have a story I want to write, I want to lose some weight, and I want to be more social. I hope your resolutions stick!

BaalSoulslayer In reply to xAntithesis5 [2012-01-06 20:01:52 +0000 UTC]
It seems being proactive is the only way to do something good with your life. I used to think things would just evolve on their own somehow, but... well, they don't. Now I'm very intent on grasping my life by the forelock. ^^

I used to think that way too; I'm still outgrowing it, to be honest. But I've been exercising regularly and reading and writing more. So, I guess it's something.
