quotes.

I found these while going through old notebooks.

"Only those who still have hope can benefit from tears."
"It is hard to laugh at the need for beauty and romance, no matter how tasteless, even horrible, the results of that need are. but it is easy to sigh. few things are sadder than the truly monstrous."- West. Day of The Locust

"The cell phones in the pockets of the dead students were still ringing when we were told that it was wrong to ask why. As police cleared the bodies from the Virginia Tech engineering building, the cell phones rang, in the eccentric varieties of ring tones, as parents kept trying to see if their children were ok"- Adam Gopnik "the New Yorker" April, 2007.

"Les grandes personnes ne comprennent jamais rien toutes seules, et c'est fatigant, pout les enfants, de toujours et toujours leur donner des explications." - Le Petit Prince. Antoine de Saint-Exupery.
something along the lines of: adults do not understand anything, and it is tiring for children to be forever explaining things to them. (Better in french, duh.)

"People sometimes say that the way things happen in the movies is unreal, but actually it's the way things happen to you in life that's unreal. The movies make emotions look so strong and real, whereas when things really do happen to you, it's like watching television-- you dont feel anything." - Andy Warhol. one of my favorites.

"We live in an age when the serious middle brow idiot craves for a literature of ideas for the novel of social comments." Nabokov, Act III of Lolita: A Screenplay

"You Ache with the need to convince yourself that you do exist in the real world." - Invisible Man.

From the last entries in Mayakovsky's notebook:
"I.
She loves me? She loves me not?

I wring
my hands and scatter the broken-off fingers
like petals you pluck from some
white little flower along your way.
You hold them up to the breeze,
they've told your fortune,
they drift off into May."

KERMIT SEEKS PIGGY

"For the longest time, I have admired the dynamic between this cross species couple. But then, sometime during the 80s, a commercial for the Muppets: Live on Stage added a new dimension. In it, a stretch limousine was pulling up in front of a theater. A footman opened the door, and a shapely, rather thick leg stepped onto the red carpet. As the rest of the form followed, it was revealed that it belonged to a woman wearing a full bodied Miss Piggy costume under an alluring evening dress. AND I WANTED HER. And, to be quite honest, I've never stopped.

Some time ago, I found an original full head rubber Miss Piggy mask, circa 1977, complete with a full head of long blond hair. I am looking for a tall, sexy BBW, preferably over 300 pounds, to wear this mask to bed. She should also be open to playing with plastic wrap and liquid latex. Blonde is best, I suppose, but not necessary. Who knows – for the right woman I might just get a green rubber suit and a Kermit mask. "

Now all I want to do is talk to you.
RIP.


Who is going to tell me I have funky madonna style now?
When I pierced my ears in the downstairs bathroom with a safety pin it was with her. The holes closed up and now all I have in my right ear is some scar tissue.
I'm glad I had someone to share my bad music taste with in middle school. We borrowed each others cds. I guess I should be listening to alkaline trio and placebo. It was so cool how you were a bitch to ellie in ceramics.
She showed me a bollywood movie for the first time.
I guess we won't be running into each other anymore. Just turned 19.
