- Peanut butters and tears
Sunday morning karaoke Forgot my bills on the stove I left home so long ago That my tooth's been wigglin' for years My peanut butter and your tears Oh, why the sad face, dear? I can't control all of my fears.
Hank Aaron
My motto was always to keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging.
Sabrina Carpenter
- Slim Pickins
Jesus, what's a girl to do? This boy doesn't even know the difference between there, their, and they are. Yet, he's naked in my room. Missing all the things he's missing, God knows that he isn't living large; a boy who's nice that breathes. I swear, he's nowhere to be seen. It's slim pickins.
Pierce, Ren
- the selfishness of her
It's a delicious dichotomy to be looked at like I've stolen the very light from the heavens and yet still have you gravitate towards me like a moth to a flame. Perhaps that's what makes every stolen moment feel like I'm a thief in the night, stealing you from the world because a selfish part of me can't bear to share you with anyone else.
Dr. Suess
- Oh! The Places You'll Go!
There is fun to be done! There are points to be scored. There are games to be won. And the magical things you can do with that ball will make you the winning-est winner of all. Fame! You'll be as famous as famous can be, with the whole wide world watching you win on TV. Except when they don't. Because, sometimes they won't. I'm afraid that sometimes you'll play lonely games too. Games you can't win 'cause you'll play against you.
Joey Esposito
The Ultimate Discovery, the YouTube channel that created the video, describes itself as a "reliable source for totally engaging and transformative content, never ending, aw-inspiring discovery, and binge-worthy entertainment." However, content on its page is more in line with tabloid magazines that focus on fantastical embellishments of news stories presented as fact.
Me, myself, and I
- Predicting my future (I challenge you to predict yours)
I will finish college, but will struggle to find a job in zoology. I will eventually end up in a career as a professional cellist and play in a well-known symphony orchestra (at the back). I will stay afloat working side jobs in a mom-and-pop cafe and composing my own music. I will not have any children and will live alone except for a sheep dog that I take on hikes every other day. By the time I am 60 or 70, I will be diagnosed with a hoarding disorder and sent to live in an old people's home.
Seraphim Rose
- Nihilism: The Root of the Revolution of the Modern Age
It is all too easy, in the atmosphere of intellectual fog that pervades Humanist circles today, to allow sympathy for an unfortunate person to pass over into receptivity to his ideas. The Nihilist, to be sure, is in some sense "sick," and his sickness is a testimony to the sickness of an age whose best, as well as worst, elements turn to Nihilism, but sickness is not cured, nor even properly diagnosed by "sympathy." In any case, there is no such thing as an entirely "innocent victim."
Anilaphat
- Fabric of Love
The feelings I have for her is like fabric woven from gold and silver thread with exceptionally delicate and exquisite design. I have spent more than half of my life weaving it faithfully and untiringly, yet you are about to tear such precious fabric into pieces and even throw it on the floor and stomp on it with your own feet!
American Football
- My Instincts Are the Enemy
I wanna taste a little bit of everything. But it gets me in trouble. To fill my plate with the vacant and obscene. With my nerves exposed, I can't say no.
Darren Aronofsky - The Fountain (2006)
Our bodies are prisons for our souls. Our skin and blood, the iron bars of confinement. But fear now. All flesh decays. Death turns all to ash. And thus, death frees every soul. You, the condemned, you have confessed. You admit to protecting a queen who twists the word of God and drowns all Spain in sin. Your queen seeks immortality on Earth. A false paradise. This is heresy. She leads you towards vanity away from the Spirit. But this is foolishness for death exists.
Sara M
- Lies, Lies, Lies, Yeah!
Oh, and get this: she wants RevCam to ask God to "slow things down" so that they'll get to New York before Mary gives birth. Which means that she wants to prolong poor Mary's labor, which has already been going on for about fifteen hours now. My God, but Annie is the most selfish person who ever lived. RevCam says he just asked God to make Mary not too angry with them for totally disrespecting her wishes. I hope she throws them out of the hospital and they get run over by a taxi and then mugged.
A H Hadley
- Children are not punishment
Children are not punishment. They aren't repercussions or duties. Children are people, who come with all the complications of a small person who is completely reliant on another.
Midnight Burger
- Four Souls
In year four of our mission, we had come upon a binary star system. I looked upon these two stars rotating around their barycenter and my thoughts turned to my wife. We were like these two stars, locked into an eternal dance only due to chance and gravity, unable to recall a moment where we chose each other and unable to escape this rotation. Knowing that to move closer would obliterate us both.
Tyler, The Creator
- Darling, I
I drive my Bimmer in the summer when I'm ready to drift, LaFerrari handle better and it's pretty as shit, feel safe in the Rolls, big boy when I drive, love em all for different reasons at the same damn time.
Gym Class Heroes
- "Taxi Driver"
Oh, my, and the funny way the ceiling tastes so high, but no chance. My little chemical romance left a bad taste in my mouth. But I approached her, like, "Hey, Mercedes, why the long face? Why you crying? No need; just put on this Coheed and fall out." Boy meets girl; Jimmy eat world, but Schlep eats pills till he's all out.
taylor swift
- The 1 by Taylor Swift
I'm doing good, I'm on some new shit Been saying "yes" instead of "no" I thought I saw you at the bus stop, I didn't though I hit the ground running each night I hit the Sunday matinée You know the greatest films of all time were never made I guess you never know, never know And if you wanted me, you really should've showed And if you never bleed, you're never gonna grow And it's alright now But we were something, don't you think so? Roaring 20s, tossing pennies in the pool.
Stephen Crane
- The Red Badge of Courage
After a time he aroused, for some part, and the things about him began to take form. He saw that the ground in the deep shadows was cluttered with men, sprawling in every conceivable posture. Glancing narrowly into the more distant darkness, he caught occasional glimpses of visages that loomed pallid and ghostly, lit with a phosphorescent glow. These faces expressed in their lines the deep stupor of the tired soldiers. They made them appear like men drunk with wine.
Jordan B. Peterson
- Take Aim, Even Badly
Perhaps there's no shortage of backtracking, but it doesn't matter because as you stumble forward you illuminate and inform yourself and perhaps that's partly because the world is made of information and if you encounter it and tangle with it then it informs you and then you become informed and then you're in formation, and then you're ready.
Baboom
- Baboon was already taken so Baboom it is.
Einstein once said things should be made as cheap as possible but not cheaper than that. Don't quote me on that. I am just doing a little word play on what he actually said, and now that should be enough words for my first quote.
