Words To Remember

"It's hard to find original thoughts these days, that aren't someone else's original thoughts. People are terrified of utilizing their own brain as if they will be burned at the stake.

If man has an opinion, he stakes his reputation on being ridiculed, but his conviction must be able to withstand the slings and arrows of those who 'no no' better. He must stick by his guns and be ready to shoot."

Love Should Never Hurt

>> 10.21.2009 – Alexys Fairfield, Love, Quotes, War

"Love should never hurt. It shouldn’t compromise our principles. When it becomes war, then it is not love. Many people feel that they have to fight for love or they won’t get love, but love is not like that. It’s an inventory of our will and desires as they are matched against someone else’s will and desires."
