Some of my favorite things said by the vlogbrothers:
"French the llama!" - John Green
"We're nerdfighters. We fight world suck. What is world suck? World suck is kind of exactly what world suck sounds like. It's hard to quantify exactly but it's like the amount of suck in the world." - Hank Green
"DFTBA - Don't Forget To Be Awesome" - vlogbrothers
"So today I was googling myself..." - John Green

AND MY PERSONAL FAVORITE:
"Fun is the most important thing out there except for trying to make the world a better place." - Hank Green

Never drink and drive and shoot your gun off at the same time. You could probably hurt someone or worse....yourself!

Never take a knife to a gunfight if at all possible. Guns in gunfights are preferable. Take heed in my warning.....I have seen it happen all too often.

at the moment it is : " Only peace can save us now... :roll: "

need to remind myself of that from time to time... like couple of times a day.
no need to say that my famous calmness has been challenged quite a few times recently, but I somehow always managed to keep the dark side of Iv on a leash :twisted:

Current favorites:

"The value of an opinion can be measured by the person standing behind it."

"You now have the choice between conscious decision and failure by forfeit."

"If you are winning too easily, beware; it's a trap."

...and the one I use most: "We've done so much with so little for so long that we're now capable of doing anything with nothing." :oops:

"if you think positively, you attract positive things" - The Law of Attraction.
This helped me a lot. I was always sad and i hated everything. I was mad and really annoying. Then I read about the Law of Attraction and I decided to chance my sight of life. I started to think positively and I feel much better now. It can be really difficult, especially when everyone around are fucking stupid, but you don't get really far being negative :)

Well, call it a long saying, but:

“Advice? I don’t have advice. Stop aspiring and start writing. If you’re writing, you’re a writer. Write like you’re a goddamn death row inmate and the governor is out of the country and there’s no chance for a pardon. Write like you’re clinging to the edge of a cliff, white knuckles, on your last breath, and you’ve got just one last thing to say, like you’re a bird flying over us and you can see everything, and please, for God’s sake, tell us something that will save us from ourselves. Take a deep breath and tell us your deepest, darkest secret, so we can wipe our brow and know that we’re not alone. Write like you have a message from the king. Or don’t. Who knows, maybe you’re one of the lucky ones who doesn’t have to.”

A poet's work is to name the unnameable, to point at frauds, to take sides, start arguments, shape the world, and stop it going to sleep.
