here's one i think most people will recognize and appreciate. it's from led zeppelin's stairway to heaven:

There's still time to change the road you're on."

And you better pick yourself up from the ground
Before they bring the curtain down" - Eric Clapton "Badge"

"I wish I never learned, the water is polluted with germs" - Brad Noel "Badfish"

I love quotes... Mark Twain is an awesome source of them and same with Catcher in the Rye.... just be careful you don't misinterpret them! That really kills them
 
If addiction is judged by how long a dumb animal will sit pressing a lever to get a 'fix' of something, to its own detriment, then I would conclude that netnews(bluelight) is far more addictive than cocaine. ~Rob Stampfli
 
I've saved so many of these, thanks guys. One that I made up is-

"People with problems don't talk about them. People who want attention talk about their problems."
 
"Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today." James Dean

I don't take drugs as an escape trick, like some cheap magician on a cruise ship. I take drugs to find gold, like a greedy prospector in the backcountry. There are those who take drugs to be cool and those who take drugs to expand. I am not James Dean. I'm a balloon. And god has a mouth on my hole. And is blowing. And filling me up. And filling me up. One day I will explode. And then I will be free.
~ Robert Sedlack, "The African Safari Papers"

"See I think drugs have done some good things for us. If you don't think drugs have done good things for us then do me a favor. Go home tonight and take all of your records,tapes and all your CD's and burn them. Because, you know all those musicians who made all that great music that's enhanced your lives throughout the years? Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreal fucking high on drugs, man."

not true, just my opinion

What do you mean it's not true? When was the last time someone with DEEP problems came around and just talked to whoever listened?

Also, when was the last time someone that just wanted everyone's sympathy cried about their "problems"?

"There comes a point when a dream becomes reality and reality becomes a dream." -frances farmer
 
people with deep problems do talk about them just not as openly or readily, i thought you meant they didnt talk about them ever with anyone.. they do.
but some with deep problems find it easier to talk 2 people they dont know as well, as they wont be afraid of them judging them etc

I like to think of life that way.


Rollerskating around the ring dancing with the occasional slip and fall but overall well worth it.
 
"You buy furniture, you tell yourself, this is the last sofa I will ever need in my life. buy the sofa, then for a couple of years you're satisfied that no matter what goes wrong, at least you've got your sofa issue handled, then the right set of dishes, then the perfect bed. The drapes. The rug.
Then you're trapped in your lovely nest, and the things that you used to own, now they own you." from the Fight Club book :)
