“Passion, it lies in all of us, sleeping... waiting... and though unwanted... unbidden... it will stir... open its jaws and howl. It speaks to us... guides us... passion rules us all, and we obey. What other choice do we have? Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love... the clarity of hatred... and the ecstasy of grief. It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion maybe we'd know some kind of peace... but we would be hollow... Empty rooms shuttered and dank. Without passion we'd be truly dead.”
Joss Whedon
“In the virtual world, lives and feelings are measured not by the distance of miles but by the reality of our desires.”

“The way we speak of our parents teaches our children the way they will speak of us to our grandchildren.”
Gene Crawford
“Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it's cracked up to be. That's why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more.”
Erica Jong
“I love you, and because I love you, I would sooner have you hate me for telling you the truth than adore me for telling you lies.”
Pietro Aretino
“I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“love life, engage in it, give it all you've got. love it with a passion, because life truly does give back, many times over, what you put into it”
