“If you don’t mind my asking, why would a demon be concerned about appearances? Aren’t you all about killing, maiming, and torturing?”

“Together let us hold the intention that all aspects of this living planet come together in love, acceptance, and celebration of both our diversities and commonalities. Let us possess the common purpose that we heal from our hearts into compassion and forgiveness for ourselves. Together let us own the belief that we will no longer unite with blame and judgement, but come to accept that we all carry the same wounds. In acknowledging this, the hope is for the whole planet in its jubilant diversity to be healed from any and all woundings so that we come together on equal footing, living in peace and joy and setting the tone for a future of harmony within and on this planet.
Peace to all and healing to all.”
― Wendy E. Slater, Of the Flame, Poems - Volume 15

Just try to be who you are consistently and let those closest to you see your best, along with those you work with. People around you should not be the cause of change in your personal character.”
― Gaylan D. Wright, Slave to the Dream: Everyone’s Dream

“È folle. Folle è vivere la tua vita secondo un libro scritto da qualcuno che non poteva immaginare come sarebbe stata la tua vita. [...] Guardati intorno. Questo mondo non è quel mondo. Quel mondo è morto. Quei libri furono scritti per quel mondo. Quei libri sono morti. Dovrebbero essere portati via da ogni chiesa della terra e riciclati, così almeno potrebbero fare un po’ di bene in questo mondo. Le copie più antiche e più belle sono curiosità storiche e dovrebbero essere messe nei musei.”
― James Frey, The Final Testament of the Holy Bible

“Books. Cats. Life is good.”
