Keep your eyes on the stars and your paws on the ground.
You can't chase two mice at the same time.
People are to be taken in very small doses.
A coward dies a thousand deaths, the brave just nine.
Hasty climbers have sudden falls.
Beauty is only fur deep.

Keep your words kind, soft and sweet, for tomorrow you may have to eat them.
Even a tombstone says good things about a fellow who's down.
Kindness is like jam. You can't spread any without getting some on yourself.
Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.
Remember, when opportunity knocks, you still have to get off the couch and open the door.

"You are not your job.
You are not how much you have in the bank.
You are not the contents of your wallet.
You are not your *friggin'* Khakis.
You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake.
You are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world."
~Tyler~
"Our generation has had no Great Depression, no Great War.
Our war is spiritual. Our depression is our lives."

"That famous "revival of religion," about which so many people have been talking for so long, will not come about as the result of evangelistic mass meetings or the television appearances of photogenic clergymen. It will come about as the result of biochemical discoveries that will make it possible for large numbers of men and women to achieve a radical self-transcendence and a deeper understanding of the nature of things. And this revival of religion will be at the same time a revolution. From being an activity mainly concerned with symbols, religion will be transformed into an activity concerned mainly with experience and intuition – an everyday mysticism underlying and giving significance to everyday rationality, everyday tasks and duties, everyday human relationships." - Aldous Huxley

"We are all our own graveyards I believe; we squat amongst the tombs of the people we were. If we're healthy, every day is a celebration, a Day of the Dead, in which we give thanks for the lives that we lived; and if we are neurotic we brood and mourn and wish that the past was still present." --Clive Barker

Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind. Withering my intuition, missing opportunities and I must feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines.
With my feet upon the ground I lose myself between the sounds and open wide to suck it in and feel it move across my skin. I'm reaching up and reaching out. I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me. And following our will and wind we may just go where no one's been. We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one's been.

I recently finished collecting the Andromeda series. I very much enjoyed the quotes that started the shows.
"Worlds governed by artificial intelligence often learned a hard lesson: Logic Doesn't Care."
"Here is the price of freedom: your every drop of courage, ounce of pain,
pint of blood. Paid in advance.
"The true quarry of any great adventurer is the undiscovered territory of their own soul."
