“We real cool. We
Left school. We

Lurk late. We
Strike straight. We

Sing sin. We
Thin gin. We

Jazz June. We
Die soon.”
― Gwendolyn Brooks, Selected Poems

“Don't Just

Don't just learn, experience.
Don't just read, absorb.
Don't just change, transform.
Don't just relate, advocate.
Don't just promise, prove.
Don't just criticize, encourage.
Don't just think, ponder.
Don't just take, give.
Don't just see, feel.
Don’t just dream, do.
Don't just hear, listen.
Don't just talk, act.
Don't just tell, show.
Don't just exist, live.”
― Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

“Nesvarbu, - sako Taileris. -Jeigu kandidatas jaunas, mes jam sakom, kad jis per jaunas. Jeigu jis storas - tada jis per storas. Jeigu senas - tada per senas. Liesas - vadinasi, per liesas. Baltasis, - vadinasi, per daug baltas. Juodasis - vadinasi, per juodas.
-Būtent taip budistų šventovėse tikrindavo kandidatus prieš "n" milijoną metų, - sako Taileris.- Liepi kandidatui eiti atgal, ir jeigu jo ryžtas toks stiprus, kad jis vis tiek laukia prie įėjimo be maisto, pastogės ar padrąsinimo tris dienas, tada, tik tada jis gali žengt vidun ir pradėti mokslus.”
― Chuck Palahniuk

“I don't care about truth. I want some happiness.”
