How come the moon falls from the sky?

Thom Yorke  - Quotes

 Are you such a dreamer

To put the world to rights?

I'll stay home forever

Where two and two always makes a five



I'll lay down the tracks

Sandbag and hide

January has April's showers

And two and two always makes a five



It's the devil's way now

There is no way out

You can SCREAM and you can shout

It is too late now



Because...

You have not been

Payin' attention!

Payin' attention!

Payin' attention!

Payin' attention!

You have not been paying attention!

Thom Yorke  - Quotes

 And if the world does turn, and if London burns, I'll be standing on the beach with my guitar. I want to be in a band, when I get to Heaven. Anyone can play guitar, and they won't be a nothing anymore...

Martin Gardner  - Quotes

 Her constant orders for beheading are shocking to those modern critics of children's literature who feel that juvenile fiction should be free of all violence and especially violence with Freudian undertones. Even the Oz books of L. Frank Baum, so singularly free of the horrors to be found in Grimm and Andersen, contain many scenes of decapitation. As far as I know, there have been no empirical studies of how children react to such scenes and what harm if any is done to their psyche. My guess is that the normal child finds it all very amusing and is not damaged in the least, but that books like Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and The Wizard of Oz should not be allowed to circulate indiscriminately among adults who are undergoing analysis.

 Won't let the creeping ivy

Won't let the nervous bury me

Our veins are thin

Our rivers poisoned

We want the sweet meat

We want the young blood

Ayn Rand  - Quotes

 Degrees of ability vary, but the basic principle remains the same: the degree of a man's independence, initiative and personal love for his work determines his talent as a worker and his worth as a man. Independence is the only gauge of human virtue and value. What a man is and makes of himself; not what he has or hasn't done for others. There is no substitute for personal dignity. There is no standard of personal dignity except independence.

 Limb by limb and tooth by tooth,

Tearing up inside of me,

Every day, every hour, just wish that I...

 That, they never could lay their heads upon their pillows; that, they could never tolerate the idea of their wives laying their heads upon their pillows; that, they could never endure the notion of their children laying their heads on their pillows; in short , that there never more could be , for them or theirs , any laying of heads upon pillows at all , unless the prisioner's head was taken off.

Max Brooks  - Quotes

 If your Soviet neighbor is trying to set fire to your house, you can't be worrying about the Arab down the block. If suddenly it's the Arab in your backyard , you can't be worrying about the People's Republic of China and if one day the ChiComs show up at your front door with an eviction notice in one hand and a Molotov cocktail in the other, then the last thing you're going do is look over his shoulder for a walking corpse.

 This was the start of a period that blurs as I try to recall it. Incidents seem to cascade and merge. Events become feelings, fellings become events. Head and heart are contrary historians.

Ayn Rand  - Quotes

 There's so much nonsense about human inconstancy and the transience of all emotions. I've always thought that a feeling which changes never existed in the first place.
