"If you actually have faith, if you believe that there's more to life in a positive sense, then of course it's a wonderful thing. I can't bring myself to do it. If I'm sitting next to a guy and he has true belief, I look at him and think, ‘poor thing, you really are deluded'." -Woody Allen

"There was even going to be a party for you. A big party that all your friends were invited to. I even invited your best friend the Companion Cube. Of course he couldn't come because you murdered him. All your other friends couldn't come either because you don't have any other friends because of how unlikable you are. ... It says so right here in your personnel file; 'Unlikable. Liked by no one. A bitter unlikable loner whose passing shall not be mourned.' SHALL NOT BE MOURNED. That's exactly what it says. Very formal. Very official. It also says you were adopted. So that's funny too."

-GLaDOS

Brendon: I didn't know you went to college.
Coach McGuirk: A couple of days I did. Alright, and I ran with a gang. The gang was called the Feelgoods. It wasn't the toughest gang in the world... it was more like running with the cast of a Broadway musical. Very annoying. A lot of freaky interpretive dance stuff - beads, makeup - in other words *drugs*, Brendon.

Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader", every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam. -Carl Sagan

spending an entire night watching documentaries about ridiculous subjects.

in between the thinking and the saying
threw away what i can't believe
tell me how you lose this feeling
all moods have been dealt and played
tell me how you lose this feeling
all hands have been cut and waved

The solar panel's shining face
Is smiling back on me
Twisting off into the sun
It's okay to be lonely

All my missions float away
I never trained too hard
I'm so caught up in the tree of stars
Falling in my backyard

She'll always be what i can't find
She'll always be where i break down
She'll always hide behind a star
I'll always dream she can't be far

I've got no houston to whine down to
I've got no protocol
Gravity's so far away
Wrapped on that shrinking ball

I eclipsed my memories
Sleeping inside this pod
Patient time will carry me
On her back without a sigh

And i won't let her down
My soul is celestial-bound
And if i'm never found
She'll always be

You can't reason yourself back into cheerfulness any more than you can reason yourself into an extra six inches in height. -Stephen Fry

thanking god i'm an atheist.

i also think about how much i want a new kitten. kittens are full of win.

i'm wondering why people think change has come to america in the form of a major political party, but i'm a cynic.

trying to drown out the sound of my upstairs neighbor fucking.

i despise capital letters and i rarely keep my front door locked.
