John Steinbeck...
“It always seemed strange to me that the things we admire in men, kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we detest, sharpness, greed, aquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and selfinterest are the traits of sucess. And while men admire the quality of the first, they love the produce of the second.”
Charles Bukowski...
“If you’re losing your soul and you know it, then you’ve still got a soul left to lose”

I’ve been gone for a minute, now I’m back with the jump off.
Prometheus Brown...
Right now I want to thank God for being me My soul won’t rest until the colony is free 1896 revolution incomplete Silence is defeat my solution is to speak Resurrect a legacy of martyrs I beseech Time to choose a side it’s the might vs. the meek My big brother Free brought the word from the East Where the bullet in the middle of the belly of the beast.

Wild overgrown vines crept over the walls of the stone gardens, stretching their green fingers out into the unkempt yard. Sitting in a deck chair Mara Hallow took a quick drag off the cigarette pinched between her long white fingers. She stared out into the yard idly wondering how many unique shades of green were out there. Everything grew so quickly in the fertile Tennessee soil. Putting out...

“The World is run by one million evil men, ten million stupid men and a hundred million cowards. There are only one million of them, the truly evil men, in the whole world. The very rich and the very powerful, whose decisions really count - they only number one million. The stupid men, who number ten million, are the soldiers and policemen who enforce the rule of the evil men. They are...

Charles Bukowski...
There’s a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out but I’m too tough for him, I say, stay in there, I’m not going to let anybody see you.
We are like roses that have never bothered to bloom when we should have bloomed and it is as if the sun has become disgusted with waiting
C.S. Lewis...
“Your soul has a curious shape because it is made to fit a particular swelling in the infinite contours of the divine substance…Your place in heaven will seem to be made for you and you alone, because you were made for it…”
Blue Scholars, good for your ears, give it a try.

For real – talk of “let’s build,” but materials are concrete Ideals are ethereal I process thoughts outside the ‘cattle run’ To provide you with a ride when the battlins’ done But some reply “no thanks” and attempt to use against me My proximity to the city Devout by choice, but providentially Baha’I by chance I make the most of an unusual circumstance For a Cause I discovered in another...
John Steinbeck...
Our species is the only creative species, and it has only one creative instrument, the individual mind and spirit of a man. Nothing good was ever created by two men. There are no good collaborations, whether in music, in art, in poetry, in mathematics, in philosophy. Once the miracle of creation has taken place, the group can build and extend it, but the group never invents anything. The...

Wait for me, and I’ll return, Wait, and I will come. Wait when heavy yellow rains Try to bring you down. Wait through summer’s wasting heat, Wait through falling snow, Wait when others still repeat Not to stay alone. Wait with hope when letters stop, Strong and tough just be… Turn away from those who’re stern, From their grief stay free. Wait for me, and I’ll return...

Walt Whitman...
WE two boys together clinging, One the other never leaving, Up and down the roads going, North and South excursions making, Power enjoying, elbows stretching, fingers clutching, Arm’d and fearless, eating, drinking, sleeping, loving. No law less than ourselves owning, sailing, soldiering, thieving, threatening, Misers, menials, priests alarming, air breathing, water drinking, on the...
