“After a break-up people always claim that things will get better, and in fact they do. ( but not because we in fact ARE better but that the pain, has beaten every last ounce of feeling from us. after we are wasted away, because food and drink seems to be like sand being choked down, and sleep is no comfort because you know you'll dream of them, and have to wake with knowing they'll not be there. after all this is accepted, we are what people claim is 'better'.” PeopleKnowsFactsFeelingsDreamSeemsPainLastsSleepBreakKnowingDrinkComfortClaimsDown AndAcceptedGet BetterSandBeatenFood And DrinkAfter Break UpThings Will Get Better Author:Gabriel Macht

“The truth is that trout fishermen scheme and lie and toss in their sleep. They dream of great dripping trout, shapely and elusive as mermaids, and arise cranky and haggard from their fantasies. They are moody and neglectful and all of them a little daft. Moreover they are inclined to drink too much.” LittlesDreamLyingSleepFantasyToo MuchSeaDrinkTruth IsRiversFishesAriseBoatLakesFishingSchemesElusiveFishermanTossMermaidTroutDrippingMoodyCrankyDaftHaggard Author:John D.

“Spirituality is best manifested on the ground, not in the air. Rapturous day-dreams, flights of heavenly fancy, longings to see the Invisible, are less expensive and less expressive than the plain doing of duty. To have bread excite thankfulness and a drink of water send the heart to God is better than sighs for the unattainable. To plow a straight furrow on Monday or dust a room well on Tuesday or kiss a bumped forehead on Wednesday is worth more than the most ecstatic thrill under Sunday eloquence. Spirituality is seeing God in common things, and showing God in common tasks.” WellsHeartDreamSpiritualityWaterRoomsCommonSeeingAirDutyDrinkKissingTasksLongingInvisibleBreadFlightDustFancyExpensiveHeavenlySundayThrillSighMondayThankfulnessEloquenceForeheadsEcstaticTuesdayExpressiveWednesdayUnattainableCommon Things Book:Thoughts for Every-day Living from the Spoken and Written Words of Maltbie Davenport Babcock Source: Thoughts for Every-day Living from the Spoken and Written Words of Maltbie Davenport Babcock
“...As the disparity between the rich and the poor grows, the fight to corner resources is intensifying. To push through their "sweetheart deals," to corporatize the crops we grow, the water we drink, the air we breathe, and the dreams we dream, corporate globalization needs an international confederation of loyal, corrupt, authoritarian governments in poorer countries to push through unpopular reforms and quell the mutinies. Corporate Globalization-or shall we call it by its name?-Imperialism-needs a press that pretends to be free. It needs courts that pretend to dispense justice.” NeedsCountryDreamGovernmentFightingNamesGrowsWaterJusticePoorDealsRichAirDrinkResourcesCourtPressesInternationalCornersBreatheReformCorporateLoyalImperialismGlobalizationCropsSweetheartDisparityMutinyConfederationAuthoritarian Government Author:Arundhati Roy
