The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places.
But those that will not break it kills.
It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially.
If you are none of these you can be sure that it will kill you too
but there will be no special hurry.

love is self deception. i am a living creature. hate is only self love. i am a double feature.
sometimes the only thing that is amazing to me is my ability to disappoint myself. to think so much and and try so hard and get almost all the way there and then feel myself falling backwards to where i was before. the lump rising in my throat as i realize that i am all the things i hate i must like it. that i really am set in my ways and going to be a loner all my life. that there will be no intervention by someone else. that all the love songs were written by people who never lived them. i like to listen to them because i can always turn them off. i like the idea of someone else's love safely sealed in a song or a book. i know that mine will always be rooted in hatred, contempt and fear. it's been years since i had a dream that didn't involve work or some level of panic. i see my ultimate failure mirrored back in the eyes of those i know. in their expectation of me.in their honest love for me. it makes me want to warn them to get away because i will disappoint. i will betray. i will turn vicious and not remember why or when. i will never be able to tear myself away from the dark, violent sickness of my life because it's the only thing i know. it is what defines me. i associate it with my parents and all the pain and horror of youth. i only feel safe in my solitary sickness where the only one getting hurt is me. i know that i will eventually hate them and do my best to make sure they feel the same way about me.they saw potential in my and they are going to make me deliver and i just can't face that. so sure am i of my ability to fail that when someone tells me i can do something else, i can't hear it. tonight i am alone thinking about your tears and pleading. when i said i never wanted to see you again, you clung to me and your crying made you convulse. i could feel your tears on my neck and your hot breath on my shirt. i knew that i would never be able to say aloud what i just wrote. i know it would've come out mean and wrong. i knew that nothing i said would ever get it right because who would believe it? if you felt the same way you would have seen me in yourself as soon as we met and you would have avoided me. that's why i cut you off before i started in with the sick undoing of your ego. the nonstop manipulation and dependence. it's what i know. it's what i like. i'm only going to tell you this once.

THE WOLF & THE CRANE.
a Wolf who had a bone stuck in his throat hired a Crane, for a large sum, to put her head into his mouth and draw out the bone.

when the Crane had extracted the bone and demanded the promised payment, the Wolf, grinning and grinding his teeth, exclaimed:

"why, you have surely already had a sufficient recompense, in having been permitted to draw out your head in safety from the mouth and jaws of a wolf."

in serving the wicked, expect no reward, and be thankful if you escape injury for your pains.

Never love a wild thing, Mr.Bell,
That was Doc's mistake. He was always lugging home wild things.
A hawk with a hurt wing.One time it was a full-grown bobcat with a broken leg.
But you can't give your heart to a wild thing: the more you do, the stronger they get.
Until they're strong enough to run into the woods.
Or fly into a tree. Then a taller tree. Then the sky.

Thats how you'll end up Mr.Bell.
If you let yourself love a wild thing.
You'll end up looking at the sky.

Let's wish the Doc luck,too,
Good luck: and believe me , dearest Doc-
it's better to look at the sky than to live there.
Such an empty place; so vague.
Just a country where the thunder goes and things disappear.




-Miss Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's

I must tell you that i was always afraid of the fury with which i loved you.
It overwhelmed me.
I thought it beyond comprehension, therefore my silence.

Sex is full of lies. The body tries to tell the truth.
But, it's usually too battered with rules to be heard, and bound with pretenses so it can hardly move. We cripple ourselves with lies.


-Jim Morrison
