Friendship doubles your joys, and divides your sorrows.

Friends are like credit cards, we need them forever...
- Dorothy Taylor -

Many people will walk in
and out of your life,
but only true friends will leave

Trust no one unless you have eaten much salt with him.

Trust him not with your secrets, who, when left alone in your room, turns over your papers.

Luck is not something you can mention in the presence of self-made men.

The winds and waves are always on the side of the ablest navigators.

Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.

some quotes i like that came to me at random
"life is (so) short, so love the one ya got. cuz ya might get run over or ya might get shot"-(sublime)

"i'm holding here a book
notable, but not the greatest
stolen for me by the latest
in a long line of thieves
and i'm just about to drop it
down that manhole of memories
when i realize it doesn't bother me
and heartache not so dire
cuz i looked up to see integrity
finally won over desire" (Ani Difranco)

"I am thinking it's a sign
that the freckles in our eyes are mirror images
and when we kiss they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate
that God himself did make
us into corresponding shapes
like puzzle pieces from the clay
....
It's true, it may seem like a stretch
but its thoughts like this that catch
my troubled head when you're away
when I am missing you to death" infact the entire Postal Service song (such great heights) is quotable

"i'll feed you fruit that dont exsist...ill leave graffitti where you've never been kissed" (becK)

then theres some Bjork....
"Let's unite tonight
We shouldn't fight
Embrace you tight
Let's unite tonight"

I'm a tree that grows hearts
One for each that you take
You're the intruder hand
I'm the branch that you break


Hope u like at least one of these
