My Jar Full of Jam
My red is so confident that he flashes trophies of war and ribbons of euphoria. Orange is young, full of daring but very unsteady for the first go around. My yellow in this case is not so mellow. In fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me. And all of these emotions of mine keep holding me from giving my life to a rainbow like you. - Jimi Hendrix
The gifted novelist was the man who retained the amazing imagination of a boy. - Frank Norris
We used to linger a long while over our coffee in that sunny corner. Lena was never so pretty as in the morning; she wakened fresh with the world everyday, and her eyes had a deep colour then, like the blue flowers that are never so blue as when they first open. I could sit idle all through a Sunday morning and look at her. -Willa Cather
The key to a woman's heart, is an unexpected gift, at an unexpected time. - Finding Forrester
"She's so pretty, I just forgot how to talk," Hood told me. I loved him for that. What man has not stood in lumpen torment before the face of beauty? - Leif Enger
I believe that my life's gonna' see, the love I give, return to me. - John Mayer
If I can see clear enough to realize that I am good because God has willed me to be good, I will at the same time be able to see more clearly the goodness of other men and of God. And I will be more aware of my own failings. I cannot be humble unless I first know that I am good, and know that what is good in me is not my own, and know how easy it is for me to substitute an evil of my own choice for the good that is God's gift to me. - Thomas Merton
Dont let your dreams be dreams. - Jack Johnson
