&quot;happiness is like a butterfly. the more you chase it, the more it will elude you. but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder...&quot;<br /> -henery david therau.<br /> <br /> &quot;ive paid the price of solitude, but at least &quot;the duty of youth is to challenge corruption.&quot;<br /> -Kurt Cobain<br /> <br /> &quot;The noblest pleasure is the joy of understanding.&quot; <br /> -Leonardo da Vinci<br /> <br /> <br /> &quot;Silence is very important. The silence between the notes is as important as the notes themselves.&quot;<br /> -Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart<br /> <br /> <br /> &quot;Use what talents you possess: the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best.&quot; <br /> -Henry Van Dyke

&quot;In our endeavors to recall to memory something long forgotten, we often find ourselves upon the very verge of remembrance, without being able, in the end, to remember.&quot; ~ Edgar Allan Poe<br /> <br /> &quot;But as in ethics, evil is a consequence of good, so in fact, out of joy is sorrow born. Either the memory of past bliss is the anguish of today, or the agonies which are have their origin in the ecstasies which might have been.&quot; ~ Edgar Allan Poe<br /> <br /> It was night, and the rain fell; and falling, it was rain, but, having fallen, it was blood ~ Edgar Allan Poe<br /> <br /> <br /> A sombre yet beautiful and peaceful gloom here pervaded all things ... the shade of the trees fell heavily upon the water, and seemed to bury itself therein, impregnating the depths of the element with darkness.&quot; ~Edgar Allan Poe<br /> <br /> They who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.&quot;~Edgar Allan Poe<br /> <br /> <br /> &quot;And then there stole into my fancy, like a rich musical note, the thought of what sweet rest there must be in the grave.&quot; ~ Edgar Allan Poe

&quot;Life is like a pen, you can&#039;t erase it&quot; <br /> &quot;You don&#039;t always get what you want.&quot; <br /> &quot;You can&#039;t put a price on love&quot;<br /> &quot;Don&#039;t judge a book by its&#039; cover&quot; (You can use this saying for people too!)
