“We didn't build our bridges simply to avoid walking on water. Nothing so obvious. A bridge is a meeting place. A neutral place. A casual place. Enemies will choose to meet on a bridge and end their quarrel in that void... For lovers, a bridge is a possibility, a metaphor of their chances. And for the traffic in whispered goods, where else but a bridge in the night?” EndsNightWaterChanceEnemyPossibilityLoversWalkingMeetingsMetaphorObviousBridgesGoodsVoidTrafficQuarrelsCasualWalking On Water Book:The Passion Source: The Passion
“Aesop, that great man, saw his master making water as he walked. "What!" he said, "Must we void ourselves as we run?" Use our timeas best we may, yet a great part of it will still be idly and ill spent.” MenMaySaidStillsUseBodyRunningTimeWaterSawsMastersBehaviorIllGreat MenVoid Author:Michel de Montaigne
“In this uncertain space between birth and death, especially here at the end of the world in Moonlight Bay, we need hope as surely as we need food and water, love and friendship. The trick, however, is to remember that hope is a perilous thing, that it's not a steel and concrete bridge across the void between this moment and a brighter future. Hope is no stronger than tremulous beads of dew strung on a filament of spider web, and it alone can't long support the terrible weight of an anguished mind and a tortured heart.” WorldNeedsMindHeartLongEndsMomentsRememberWaterSpaceSupportBirthTerribleWeightStrongerTricksBridgesVoidConcreteUncertainSteelSpidersEnd Of The WorldMoonlightBrighterDewSpace BetweenLove And FriendshipBeadsBirth And DeathSpider WebBrighter Future Book:Seize the Night: A Novel Source: Seize the Night: A Novel
“Generally, it's not good to be engaged directly with the political system unless you are qualified. It`s a very depressing business, the way politics works. You get stuck into it, but then, at some point, you have to walk away. I had to walk away, because it's like this dark, black energy void. There are some people who have dedicated their lives to living in that energy void, but I can't do it. I just can't go there. It feels like you're treading water too much when you do. It's a crazy thing.” PeopleWayFeelsI CanPoliticalEnergyBlackWaterDarkWalksToo MuchCrazyLike YouStuckEngagedDedicatedVoidDepressingQualifiedPolitical SystemsCrazy ThingsTreadingVery DepressingTreading Water Author:Thom Yorke
