Things People Said: And be grateful. Our scars have the power to remind us that the past was real.

Things People Said

A collection of quotes I've kept for a while now. I add new ones fairly regularly, generally once or twice every week. Topics will be anything I find interesting that day, from famous writers, online forums, and everyone in between. Mail me quotes you find interesting, or leave them in comments.

• This, then, is love
• The Gift of Paying Attention
• Demand of Life
• Deepen The Mystery
• Time To Go?
• Perfection
• This is the way

A tremendous debt is owed to the following:

They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country. But in modern war, there is nothing sweet nor fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason.

-- Ernest Hemingway
