Va mai amintiti senzatia asta? Cand am simtit oare ultima oara asa? Cantecul asta e fenomenal; exprima atat de simplu mai mult decat ar putea-o face 1000 de cuvinte, 80 de fotografii, 50 de filme, 70 de tablouri, 300 de poezii, 400 de coregrafii, 20 de sculpturi, 12 de carti, 100 de kilograme de iarba...
I'm back in baby's arms; How I missed those loving arms. I'm back where I belong, Back in baby's arms...
Don't know why we quarreled, We never did before. Since we found out how it hurts, I bet we never quarrel any more.
Thought I didn't need his love, 'Til he took it away. Now I'm back where I belong, And in my baby's arms I'm gonna stay
Dance me to the children who are asking to be born Dance me through the curtains that our kisses have outworn Raise a tent of shelter now, though every thread is torn Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin Dance me through the panic till I'm gathered safely in Touch me with your naked hand or touch me with your glove Dance me to the end of love

Sunt un om. N-am patrie, sunt cetatean al Pamantului; sunt, cum bine spunea un prieten, cetatean universal. Cetatean femeie sau cetatean barbat? Cetatean. O fiinta. Sunt fara sex sau cu doua sexe. Nu-mi place sa ma raportez la mine ca la fata/femeie sau baiat/barbat, desi as fi mai mult din prima categorie dupa uzantele sociale si "comerciale" :). Dar ma simt in egala masura femeie si barbat. Mintea mea vede diferentele, insa inima nu le recunoaste. Pot fi extrem de sensibila, vulnerabila si fermecatoare uneori, la fel cum pot sa fiu o adevarata bruta, rece, indiferenta, cruda, fara sentimente - uneori as extermina intreaga specie umana, daca as avea optiunea asta, si as lasa doar animalele sa traiasca, nestanjenite.
Ador barbatii si iubesc femeile, desi aici situatia e mai delicata...daca am gasit destui barbati buni de iubit, "corespunzatori", aducatori de satisfactii diverse, in ce priveste femeile de iubit problema e mai spinoasa; e un "teren minat" si standardele mele sunt, cred, mult mai ridicate. Ma uit si mi se pare tot mai greu sa gasesc o femeie adevarata, interesanta, fermecatoare, magica...sa raman uitandu-ma la ea si sa ma pierd...probabil din cauza asta am ramas la barbati. Si stiu despre ce vorbesc, sunt obiectiv(a): nu uitati, nu sunt nici femeie, nici barbat - sunt ambele; sunt impartial(a). As putea numara pe degetele de la o mana femeile care mi-ar putea oferi un astfel de extaz si probabil, daca m-as apropia mai mult, s-ar spulbera si iluzia ca mai exista astfel de gratii...
Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats. Howard Aiken Economic depression cannot be cured by legislative action or executive pronouncement. Economic wounds must be healed by the action of the cells of the economic body - the producers and consumers themselves. Herbert Hoover
"Every man dies, not every man truly lives" William Ross Wallace "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you" Maya Angelou "My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return" Maya Angelou "Dreams are illustrations...from the book your soul is writing about you" Marsha Norman "Dreams have only one owner at a time. That's why dreamers are lonely" Erma Bombeck "One isn't necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest" Maya Angelou "You were once wild here, don't let them tame you" Isadora Duncan "The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned" Maya Angelou "A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn in no other way" Mark Twain "Good judgment comes from experience, and often experience comes from bad judgment" Rita Mae Brown "Few people even scratch the surface, much less exhaust the contemplation of their own experience" Randolph Bourne "All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent" Thomas Jefferson "Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean" Maya Angelou "Be polite to all, but intimate with few" Thomas Jefferson "A man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams" John Barrymore "Dreams are true while they last, and do we not live in dreams?" Alfred Lord Tennyson "There is nothing so pitiful as a young cynic because he has gone from knowing nothing to believing nothing" Maya Angelou
"Here's my definition: Faith is daring to do something, daring to believe regardless of the consequences. It's the hand that guides people to be stronger than they think they are and do the things they dream are possible. It has the power to ward off debilitating doubt, complacent indifference, pessimism. It keeps us looking for love, creating children, and adopting causes.
Faith gives us hope; it's the knowing that there is something more than what we see in the mirror." Jennifer Haupt
