Things are...a bit rough around here at the moment. If you're interested, my normal xanga will keep you up to speed. Until then, let's have a contest. What movie does the following quote come from?

"You have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have been found wanting. Come back when you're worthy."

It'd really help if everyone who visited dropped me a comment. Until next time I have a chance to update, I'm outta here.

HAPPY 2005, EVERYONE! Thank y'all for the comments - I'm glad to know my random hobby is appreciated.

New Year's...

"An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in.  A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves." - Bill Vaughan

Many people look forward to the new year for a new start on old habits.

"Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true."
- Alfred, Lord Tennyson, 1850

A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other.

"The new year begins in a snow-storm of white vows." - George William Curtis

"New Year's eve is like every other night; there is no pause in the march of the universe, no breathless moment of silence among created things that the passage of another twelve months may be noted; and yet no man has quite the same thoughts this evening that come with the coming of darkness on other nights." - Hamilton Wright Mabie

Dreams...

"Each of us has an inner dream that we can unfold if we will just have the courage to admit what it is. And the faith to trust our own admission. The admitting is often very difficult." - Julia Cameron

"You block your dream when you allow your fear to grow bigger than your faith." - Mary Manin Morrissey

"I think we dream so we don't have to be apart so long. If we're in each other's dreams, we can be together all the time." - Calvin & Hobbes
 
"You know somebody, and they cry for you. They stay awake at night and dream of you. I bet you never even know they do, but somebody's crying for you." - Anon

"Dream as if you'll live forever, and live as if you'll die tomorrow." - James Dean

"If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces, never be afraid to pick one of those pieces up and begin again." - Flavia Weedn
 
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -  Mark Twain
 
"Follow your dreams, for as you dream you shall become." - Anon

*deep breath* I am officially back. I couldn't post any quotes this past month due to some unfortunate circumstances, but for the most part things in my life are running smoothly again now. I appreciate all of the comments I recieved on the last entry - thank you guys. Let's see about setting a new record for this post, shall we? And now for some quotes...

Love...

"My night has become a sunny dawn because of you." - Ibn Abbad

"Thou art to me a delicious torment." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"My heart is ever at your service." - William Shakespeare

I'll give you an ocean of love; with a kiss on every wave.

"Love has given me wings so I must fly." - William, A Knight's Tale

Once in awhile, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale.

"I can feel you breathing and it's keeping me awake." - Breathing by Yellowcard

"The most eloquent silence; that of two mouths meeting in a kiss." - Unknown

"I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare. I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind. I hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme. I hate it, I hate the way you're always right. I hate it when you lie. I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry. I hate it that you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call. But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you. Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all." - Kat

"Kiss me and you will see stars; love me and I will give them to you." - Unknown

"Love is the master key that opens the gates of happiness." - Oliver Wendell Holmes
