You are beautiful like demolition. Just the thought of you draws my knuckles white. I don't need a god. I have you and your beautiful mouth, your hands holding onto me, the nails leaving unfelt wounds, your hot breath on my neck. The taste of your saliva. The darkness is ours. The nights belong to us. Everything we do is secret. Nothing we do will ever be understood; we will be feared and kept well away from. It will be the stuff of legend, endless discussion and limitless inspiration for the brave of heart. It's you and me in this room, on this floor. Beyond life, beyond morality. We are gleaming animals painted in moonlit sweat glow. Our eyes turn to jewels and everything we do is an example of spontaneous perfection. I have been waiting all my life to be with you. My heart slams against my ribs when I think of the slaughtered nights I spent all over the world waiting to feel your touch. The time I annihilated while I waited like a man doing a life sentence. Now you're here and everything we touch explodes, bursts into bloom or burns to ash. History atomizes and negates itself with our every shared breath. I need you like life needs life. I want you bad like a natural disaster. You are all I see. You are the only one I want to know.

If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman.

Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!

What you do today can improve all your tomorrows.

You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.

You can't help getting older, but you don't have to get old.

If you obey all the rules you miss all the fun.

Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them.

Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.

To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you.

It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see.

If you want to shine like a sun, first burn like a sun.

One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.

What lies behind you and what lies in front of you, pales in comparison to what lies inside of you.

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.

If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

Be at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let every new year find you a better man.

If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.

Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.

Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.
