Your Smile On Fire

...from the song Xavia

some future posts and lots of quotes

     First order of business: sent out the cds to Jocelyn and Erika. Hopefully you get them soon!!

 

      Second order of business: saw the movie "I'm Reed Fish" and oh boy I loved it! Mich was totally right.

 

     Third order of business.

     I don't feel like talking in specifics (ha - not like I ever do anyways), so just some quotes that I find particularly nice right about now, and maybe later I'll write about the following subjects: awkwardness, people coming into your life at just the right moment, needing people (which ties into the previous subject nicely), and the power of songs. Oh! And possibly something else but I'm not even sure how to word it. For now though, quotes.

 

Sitting there that day, I knew that the only thing I could do was keep putting one foot in front of the other, hoping none of the secrets on my shoulders would make me lose my balance.

-- I'D TELL YOU I LOVE YOU BUT THEN I'D HAVE TO KILL YOU

 

     As an aside, has anyone else heard 'The Funeral' by Band of Horses? I loves this song.

 

"Okay, so if your dad's not Aquaman, is he The Flash?"

Translation: Please think I'm funny, because my self-esteem is fairly low, and humor may be all I have going for me.

-- I'D TELL YOU I LOVE YOU BUT THEN I'D HAVE TO KILL YOU

 

No matter what, that friendship is real. No matter how much you dissect it, or talk about it, or analyze it, it'll always be real.

-- TELL IT TO NAOMI (Also, an apology if I've already given you guys this quote again. Oh, and a plug for the book which I recently reread and rediscovered the wonderfulness of.)

 

"People find a way through just about anything."

-- THE CITY OF EMBER

 

Crushes hurt.

-- RED (This from Jocelyn's essay and I wondered why I never remembered seeing it put in quite that exact way before.)

 

When people say they love you, you just have to decide to believe them, because you'll never know for sure.

-- ZIG ZAG

 

I'm the most terrific liar you ever saw in your life. It's awful.

-- THE CATCHER IN THE RYE

 

     Oyy how I heart quotes. I have a total of... 144 quotes in my quotebook so far. And that's since I started it in June.

I'm honored to be quoted! I love your quotes. Keep posting them. The only non-love I feel is for Catcher in the Rye; I hate that book. Holden is whiny and annoying and I just wish he'd shut up.
