My Interests |

|
"The saddest thing is if at the end of your life you say 'I wish I did' or 'Why didn't I?' You have to go after it with full gusto in life, whatever it is, go after the stupidest whim, because you pass by once." - Gene Simmons Some of my favorite quotes: "I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me." -Hunter S. Thompson "Life consists of what a man is thinking of all day."-Ralph Waldo Emerson "If we are facing in the right direction, all we have to do is keep on walking.” -Buddhist Proverb "Taking joy in living is a woman's best cosmetic." ~Rosalind Russell "Most men pursue pleasure with such breathless haste that they hurry past it." -Soren Kierkegaard "I am not interested in money. I just want to be wonderful."-Marilyn Monroe "In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different." -Coco Chanel "A successful person is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks others throw at him."- David Brinkley "It's not who wants to sleep with you. It's who wants to sleep with you again - David Lee Roth "I don't want to fight anymore. I just want to lay in the grass and be cool. " The Evil Wizard Glick, last episode of The Monkees "People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own soul. -Carl Gustav Jung "Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much." - Oscar Wilde "Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself."-Henry Miller "Boys may come and boys may go/ And that’s all right you see/ Experience has made me rich/ And now they’re after me" - Madonna, Material Girl "I'm never gonna dance again the way I danced with you..."George Michael, Careless Whisper When Tug McGraw was asked whether he preferred artificial turf or grass, he replied: "I don't know, I never smoked Astroturf." "People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful you will win some false friends and true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the end, it is between you and God; It was never between you and them anyway." -Mother Teresa "Cast your pearls before swine/leaves you nothing every time..." "Savin'All My Jam Just For You" -Honcho Wonko
