I happened across this quote in a bookstore the other day...
"Where do I get my ideas from? You might as well have asked that of Beethoven. He was goofing around in Germany like everybody else, and all of a sudden this stuff came gushing out of him. It was music. I was goofing around like everybody else in Indiana, and all of a sudden stuff came gushing out. It was disgust with civilization."
— Kurt Vonnegut
Oooooooooo... found a few more!
"If I should ever die, God forbid, let this be my epitaph:
THE ONLY PROOF HE NEEDED
FOR THE EXISTENCE OF GOD
WAS MUSIC"
— Kurt Vonnegut
"I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all the kinds of things you can't see from the center. "
— Kurt Vonnegut
...
With me, if it's not as deep as it goes, I won't even feel like swimming. But when I know it's deep, I can do some really amazing dives.
One more. =)
"And so it goes..."
— Kurt Vonnegut

If a girl really wants to wear the pants, why wasn't she just born as a man? Without honest masculinity and femininity, I couldn't picture passion being anything to write home about. That would be playing, more than it would be passion.
And the quote I posted, that I think I got wrong... was to show that a woman would be like, 'WTF???', if her man actually figured somethin' out in life... :devil:
Hehe. I needed to go back to the Kurt Vonnegut Jr. quotes page I found the other day, to put this one in tonight:
"We have to continually be jumping off cliffs and developing our wings on the way down."
— Kurt Vonnegut
One of my friends was rocking a giant slab of bedrock that was resting on the rest of the bedrock, and he was putting all of his 210 lbs into rocking it completely back and forth, and up and down, about maybe two to three feet up on each side. It was slamming down really hard, with a thock and a crunch every time he shifted his weight back to the other side. And I'd say this slab weighs over a ton, easily... it was just balanced in the right way to be able to teeter...
So, after throwing a can inside and watching it get chewed by the machine of the stomping rock, I promptly slipped on the damp stone as I was going around the corner of this rock, and slid my left foot squarely and neatly in between the two boulders, as it was making it's upswing crunch. I made it to the ER today, and the x-rays showed I have a compound fracture, right in the center of my foot, although, it didn't really much at all other than when I put weight on it or until the doctor asked, "according to the x-rays... does it hurt, here? Ahh. Yeah, cause it's fractured right there..."
The cliffs and wings quote was so fresh in my head, I got a chance to recite it to someone I was with, before they went back to get a car to drive me out of there.
Amazing quote though. It's very true in life. We have to constantly take the damage, just to learn to survive it. It's just what the human experience consists of. My wings won't have feathers, white or black. They get to be leathery and dark, and sleek and strong. They'll fit justttttt right, by the time I'm done building them too. It'll be a good look for me. =0]
Okay, I’ll give you that. It wasn’t exactly the point I was trying to make.Quote:

I suppose that I mistook the intention of the quote and was confused so I think I’ll just shut up now.:oo::laugh::rofl:
