Because I've never seen a smiling face that wasn't beautiful....

Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept...

“Yes, my mind was wandering.
I wished I were there with someone
who could bring peace to my heart
someone with whom I could spend a
little time without being afraid that I
would lose her the next day.
With that reassurance, the time would
pass more slowly.
We could be silent for a while
because we’d know we had the rest
of our lives together for conversation.
I wouldn’t have to worry about serious
matters, about difficult decisions and
hard words.”
Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

Derrick Brown, "Full Metal Necklaces"

“I used to tell people, poetry is hidden
in everything.
It isn’t hiding.
It is waiting, just waiting for someone
to call it on a Wednesday night, or ask it
over for chili, or hold it tightly until it
catches its breath.”
Derrick Brown, excerpt from “Full Metal Necklaces

Only artificial things last forever. —Anonymous

~Harvey Fierstein

“And still, after all this time, the Sun has never said to the Earth,
"You owe me."
Look what happens with love like that.
It lights up the sky.”
- Hafez

“Sometimes people are beautiful.
Not in looks.
Not in what they say.
Just in what they are.”

“A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.”

“The best index to a person's character is how he treats people who can't do him any good, and how he treats people who can't fight back.”

Medicine, law, business, engineering, these are all noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life.
But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.

~Dead Poet's Society
