Words

...a single word properly placed is so powerful...

-- Obert Skye

World Falling Apart

We'll worry about the world falling apart 

when we get to that point.

-- Tim

Nothing

"I said nothing," Rast whispered.

"Exactly," Reed replied.

"That's what scares me most."

Possibilities

"And I did nothing," she mourned.

"Yet...that's the thing about possibilities.

They are always around."

-- Janet the Whisp and Osck

Hearing and Listening

I just don't want to hear what I want.

Sometimes the words you needed to hear 

are the hardest to listen to.

-- Tim

Mistakes

It's one thing to make mistakes that hurt only me,

but it's a whole other thing to embark on something

that might change or destroy another person's existence.

-- Tim 

Dying

There's no such thing as dying beautiful.

-- Okuru

Cool

I just think that long hair and a bad attitude 

doesn't necessarily make you cool.

-- Clover Ernest

Choices

There are times in a person's life 

when he or she must make a choice to believe.

-- Obert Skye

Guessing

Don't speak of prophecy...

What stability does guessing at the future bring?

-- The Twit

Disappointment

Don't predict disappointment

while hope is an option.

-- Geth

Impatience

There are many impatient people in the world.

It seems everyone wants something this second.

We don't want to wait in lines,

we get fidgety when our food takes too long to cook,

and we have no tolerance whatsoever for anyone

who holds us up from doing anything we want to do

the moment we want to do it.

-- Obert Skye

Being

We can be only what we give ourselves the power to be.

-- Geth

Life

My pathetic life is flashing before my eyes...

And I'm embarrassed by how pointless it is.

-- Ardus

Age

Age isn't a punishment.

It's a reward.

You have changed from a child to a woman

who has the power to correct all of this.

-- Geth

Fate

Fate has set the course, 

and it's up to us to appreciate the ride despite razors or rewards. 

I've been a seed and a toothpick. 

I can think of a few things smaller, 

but those were some 

of the biggest moments of my existence. 

And if fate can take a seed and work with it, 

then fate can do anything.

-- Geth

Standing Still

How can you discover what lies ahead 

by simply standing still?

-- The Want

Patterns

There is a pattern and consequence to everything.

-- The Want

Death

As if death were the end.

It's a border one crosses.

-- The Want

Hurt and Pain

Pain is not something most people seek out.

Worse than pain, however, is hurt.

While pain usually bites and fades, 

hurt can hang around forever.

-- Obert Skye
