"I heard dumb bitch. I assumed you were talking to me." ~ The Truth About Cats & Dogs
" You know how someone's appearance can change the longer you know them? How a really attractive person, if you don't like them, can become more and more ugly, whereas someont you might not have even noticed...that you wouldn't look at more than once, if you love them, can become the most beautiful thing you've ever seen.

"It doesn't actually kill you. Like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says 'I never loved you,' it should kill you instantly. You shouldn't have to wake up day after day after that, trying to understand how in the world you didn't know. The light just never went on, you know. I must have known, of course, but I was too scared to see the truth. Then fear just makes you so stupid." ~ Under the Tuscan Sun
"People don't know how to love. They bite rather than kiss. They slap rather than stroke. Maybe it's because they recognize how easy it is for love to go bad, to become suddenly impossible...unworkable, an exercise of futility. So they avoid it and seek solace in angst, and fear, and aggression, which are always there and readily available. Or maybe sometimes...they just don't have all the facts." ~ The Upside of Anger
"All I can think is when someone is that lonely or that angry they can learn to hide it. But inside, it never dies. It just stays there. Eats away at you. Until one day, you have to do something about it." ~ Valentine
"My dreams are a cruel joke. They taunt me. Even in my dreams I'm an idiot...who knows she's about to wake up to reality. If I could only avoid sleep. But I can't. I try to tell myself what to dream. I try to dream that I am flying. Something free. It never works." ~ Vanilla Sky
"We knew the girls were really women in disguise, that they understood love, and even death, and that our job was merely to create the noise that seemed to fascinate them." ~ The Virgin Suicides
"Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful or conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and is not resentful." ~ A Walk To Remember

Build you a fire if the furnace breaks. Oh it could be so nice, growing old with you. I'll miss you, kiss you, give you my coat when you are cold. Need you, feed you. I'll even let you hold the remote control. So let me do the dishes in the kitchen sink. Put you to bed when you've had too much to drink. Oh I could be the man to grow old with you. I wanna grow old with you." ~ The Wedding Singer
"Is that a kind of occupational hazard of soul mates? One's not much without the other?" ~ What Dreams May Come

"All I'm saying is that somewhere out there is the man you are supposed to marry. And if you don't get him first, somebody else will, and you'll have to spend the rest of your life knowing that somebody else is married to your husband." ~ When Harry Met Sally
"Do you believe in love at first sight? Nah, I betcha don't, you're probably too sensible for that. Or have you ever like, seen somebody? And you knew that, if only that person really knew you, they would, well, they would of course dump the perfect model that they were with, and realize that you were the one that they wanted to, just grow old with. Have you ever fallen in love with someone you haven't even talked to? Have you ever been so alone you spend the night confusing a man in a coma?" ~ While You Were Sleeping

Is it any wonder, then, I failed to recognize you? You, who brought it to me for the first time. Is there any way that I can tell you how my life has changed? Any way at all to let you know what sweetness you have given me? There is so much to say. I cannot find the words. Except for these: I love you.'

Quotes Vol. 10
"When a girl is quiet, millions of things are running through her mind. When a girl is not arguing, she is thinking deeply. When a girl looks at you with eyes full of questions, she is wondering how long you will be around. When a girl stares at you, she is wondering why you are so wonderful. When a girl lies on your chest, she is wishing for you to be hers forever. When a girl calls you everyday, she is seeking for your attention. When a girl wants to see you everyday, she wants to be pampered. When a girl says, 'I'll love you forever' she means it. When a girl says that she can't live without you, she has made up her mind that you are her future. When a girl says 'I miss you" no one in this world can miss you more than that."
"Life's funny like that, once you let go of the wheel, you might end up right where you belong." ~ Little Black Book

"I think very few people are happy. They wait all their lives for something to happen to them--something great and wonderful. They don't know what it is but they wait for it. Sometimes it never happens. What they want is the kind of spirit I found in those letters. A spirit that makes life beautiful. I love that man. I loved him more than my own life. I still love him." ~ Love Letters
"I tell you what I envy about people in love--I'd love it if someone knew me, I mean really knew me. What I like, what I'm afraid of, what kind of toothpaste I use." ~ The Mirror Has Two Faces
"I've love you for nine years, I've just been too arrogant and scared to realize it, and...well, now I'm just scared. So, I realize this comes at a very inopportune time but I really have this gigantic favor to ask of you. Choose me. Marry me. Let me make you happy." ~ My Best Friend's Wedding
"Weeping willow with your tears running down, why do you always weep and frown? Is it because he left you one day? Is it because he could not stay? On your branches he would swing, do you long for the happiness that day would bring? He found shelter in your shade. You thought his laughter would never fade. Weeping willow, stop your tears. There is something to calm your fears. You think death has ripped you forever apart. But I know he'll always be in your heart." ~ My Girl
"That thing, that moment, when you kiss someone and everything around you becomes hazy and the only thing in focus is you and this person and you realize that that person is the only person that you're supposed to kiss for the rest of your life, and for one moment you get this amazing gift and you want to laugh and you want to cry because you feel so lucky that you found it and so scared that it will go away all at the same time." ~ Never Been Kissed
"I couldn't sleep last night because I know that it's over between us. I'm not bitter anymore, because I know that what we had was real. And if in some distant place in the future we see each other in our new lives, I'll smile at you with joy and remember how we spent the summer beneath the trees, learning from each other and growing in love. The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds, and that's what you've given me. That's what I hope to give to you forever. I love you. I'll be seeing you." ~ The Notebook

"I do doodle, you too, you do doodle too." ~ Buffy the Vampire Slayer
"You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both. You'll fight, you'll shag, you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends. Love isn't brains, children, its blood, its blood screaming inside you to work it's will. I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it." ~ Buffy the Vampire Slayer
"My life happens to, on occasion, suck beyond the telling of it. Sometimes more than I can handle. And it's not just mine. Every single person down there is ignoring your pain because they're too busy with their own. The beautiful ones. The popular ones. The guys that pick on you. Everyone. If you could hear what they were feeling. The loneliness. The confusion. It looks quiet down there. It's not. It's deafening." ~ Buffy the Vampire Slayer

"You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both. You'll fight, you'll shag, you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends. Love isn't brains, children, its blood, its blood screaming inside you to work it's will. I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it." ~ Buffy the Vampire Slayer
"My life happens to, on occasion, suck beyond the telling of it. Sometimes more than I can handle. And it's not just mine. Every single person down there is ignoring your pain because they're too busy with their own. The beautiful ones. The popular ones. The guys that pick on you. Everyone. If you could hear what they were feeling. The loneliness. The confusion. It looks quiet down there. It's not. It's deafening." ~ Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Quotes Vol. 9
"You are everything I never knew I always wanted." ~ Fools Rush In
"I'm not asking you to forgive me. I'll never understand or forgive myself. And if a bullet gets me, so help me, I'll laugh at myself for being an idiot. There's one thing I do know...and that is that I love you. In spite of you and me and the whole silly world going to pieces around us, I love you. Because we're alike. Bad lots, both of us. Selfish and shrewd. But able to look things in the eyes as we call them by their right names." ~ Gone With The Wind
"Real loss is only possible when you love something more than you love yourself." ~ Good Will Hunting
"Sometimes I wish I had never met you. Because then I could go to sleep at night not knowing there was someone like you out there." ~ Good Will Hunting
"At some point, you have to make a decision. Boundaries don't keep other people out. They fence you in. Life is messy. That's how we're made. So, you can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them. But there are some lines... that are way too dangerous to cross." ~ Grey's Anatomy
"You know how when you were a little kid and you believed in fairy tales, that fantasy of what your life would be, white dress, prince charming who would carry you away to a castle on a hill. You would lie in bed at night and close your eyes and you had complete and utter faith. But eventually you grow up, one day you open your eyes and the fairy tale disappears. Most people turn to the things and people they can trust. But the thing is it's hard to let go of that fairy tale entirely cause almost everyone has that smallest bit of hope, of faith, that one day they will open their eyes and it will come true." ~ Grey's Anatomy
"At the end of the day faith is a funny thing. It turns up when you don't really expect it. It's like one day you realize that the fairy tale may be slightly different than you dreamed. The castle, well, it may not be a castle. And it's not so important happy ever after, just that it's happy right now. See once in a while, once in a blue moon, people will surprise you, and once in a while people may even take your breath away." ~ Grey's Anatomy
"Intimacy is a four syllable word for, 'Here's my heart and soul, please grind them into hamburger, and enjoy.' It's both desired, and feared. Difficult to live with, and impossible to live without." ~ Grey's Anatomy
"I just need something to happen. I need a sign that things are going to change. I need a reason to go on. I need some hope! And in the absence of hope, I need to stay in bed and feel like I'm going to die today." ~ Grey's Anatomy
"I know I'm not a lot of things that you've gone for in the past--I know, but I would never leave you. I would never hurt you. And I will never stop loving you." ~ Grey's Anatomy
"Pain, you just have to ride it out, hope it goes away on its own, hope the wound that caused it heals. There are no solutions, no easy answers, you just breathe deep and wait for it to subside. Most of the time pain can be managed but sometimes the pain gets you where you least expect it. Hits way below the belt and doesn't let up. Pain, you just have to fight through, because the truth is you can't outrun it and life always makes more." ~ Grey's Anatomy
"I love you in a really, really big pretend to like your taste in music, let you eat the last piece of cheesecake, hold a radio over my head outside your window, unfortunate way that makes me hate you, love you. So pick me, choose me, love me." ~ Grey's Anatomy
"Some people live their whole lives and never fall in love. I lived my life...I fell in love." ~ Here On Earth
"Well, I've been listening to my gut since I was 14 years old, and frankly speaking, I've come to the conclusion that my guts have shit for brains." ~ High Fidelity
"We were frightened of being left alone for the rest of our lives. Only people of a certain disposition are frightened of being alone for the rest of their lives at the age of 26, and we were of that disposition." ~ High Fidelity

"So how does it happen, great love? Nobody knows...but what I can tell you is that it happens in the blink of an eye. One moment you're enjoying your life, and the next you're wondering how you ever lived without them." ~ Hitch
"You know what it's like getting up every morning? Feeling hopeless, feeling like the love of your life is waking up with the wrong woman. But, at the same time hoping that he still finds happiness, even if it's never going to be with you." ~ Hitch
"Strange isn't it? Each man's life touches so many other lives. When he isn't around he leaves an awful hole, doesn't he?" ~ It's A Wonderful Life
"And...it's a great thing to get what you want. It's a really good thing, unless what you thought you wanted wasn't really what you wanted...because what you really wanted you couldn't imagine or you didn't think it was possible but what if someone came along who knew exactly what you wanted without asking they just knew...like they could hear your heart beating or listen to your thoughts and what if they were sure of themselves and they didn't have to take a poll and they loved you...but you hesitated." ~ Kate & Leopold
"I'm not asking you to forgive me. I'll never understand or forgive myself. And if a bullet gets me, so help me, I'll laugh at myself for being an idiot. There's one thing I do know...and that is that I love you. In spite of you and me and the whole silly world going to pieces around us, I love you. Because we're alike. Bad lots, both of us.

Because what the world needs now is love, sweet love. And I know that love is a battlefield, but boogie on reggae woman because you're gonna make it after all. So celebrate good times, come on. I've gotta stop I've gotta come to my senses I've been out riding fences for so long...oops I did it again...um...What I'm trying to say is, if you leave tonight and you don't remember anything else that I've said, leave here and remember this: Procrastinate now, don't put it off." ~ Ellen DeGeneres

Why Is Everyone So Angry?: A Philadelphia Story
I recently took a trip to Philadelphia to see my bff Sara who lives in Delaware. When I took my seat on the plane I noticed they were loading the luggage into the plane, so I watched to make sure that my suitcase (which was missing my luggage tags that my cousin stole) got into the cargo hold safely. Well, I didn’t see it get loaded so hence my worrying started. When I landed and went to baggage claim my suitcase had arrived…but not quite safely. At some point it must have been thrown so hard that it bent the hard plastic tube on the backside where the pull-along handle comes out. So there I am waiting by myself in an airport, digging my knee into the top of the suitcase while pulling on the handle… to no avail. So I proceeded to crouch over and pull my suitcase outside to wait for Sara on the sidewalk. There I had my first encounter with Philadelphia hospitality. Across the lanes where cars and buses come to pick up passengers, is the parking garage. I suddenly hear someone laying on their horn for at least 2 minutes. Thinking that a car alarm was going off I look up to see a 70-80 year old woman walking through the parking garage being closely followed by the car with said horn blowing. The lady turned around and looked at them like they were nuts. Well, she got out of the way and the car goes past her…slowly…they obviously weren’t in a hurry…just rude. Sara picked me up soon after as I regaled her with this story and we made our way to Newark. We were both starving, so after dropping off my bent luggage we went to a local sub shop (Capriotti’s I believe) which Sara claimed had the most amazing sandwich ever…. it was a concoction of turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce. A whole Thanksgiving dinner on a bun. Since I am way too picky to attempt that kind of fare…I settled for an Italian…figuring that I should like it since I am Italian after all. And at least I was right, it was amazing and highly recommended. But I had to take a picture of the lumpy mess that Sara got…so here it is…
After picking up the subs, we stopped at the farmer’s market (run by mostly Mexican and Chinese people I believe) which had amazing prices and every type of odd food that you could possibly think of. I wish I had more time to explore the aisles. I did find some frozen octopus and a bag of tiny baby octopuses…very disturbing.
Friday we went to Philadelphia to tour many of the historical sites. We started out on South Street (which was supposed to have lots of cool stores) and we parked as soon as we pulled onto the street (in the ghetto accompanied with many cat calls), thinking that the stores couldn’t be too far away…. 20 blocks later we arrived at the stores…which really weren’t that exciting. And FYI everyone under 25 dresses like a streetwalker from the 80s, in various neon colored skinny jeans (boys and girls that is) and they walk in big bunches and practically push you into the street and won’t let you through. In the meantime we had to park at a meter with a 2-hour limit…because there is NO FREE PARKING anywhere in Philly. So we were running these 20 blocks looking for a bathroom because Sara has to pee every 5 minutes…literally.
After surviving the very under whelming South Street, we went to see the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall. We searched for parking through all of the crazy narrow streets and angry drivers then settled for parking in the garage under the Liberty Bell. We raced upstairs, skipped all of the introductory hoopla and went straight to the bell. Once again, not very exciting. We went outside took a couple of pics of the Independence Hall from across the street and ran back inside to eat a VERY HOT hotdog. When I picked it up, I immediately dropped it back down because it burnt my hand. Then we went back to see how much we owed for parking…. $8.00!!! We were there for 45 minutes and didn’t even get to see anything really. This would never happen in St. Louis…historical sites should be free people!!!
We then made our way to the good part of the trip…. the East State Penitentiary…the world’s first penitentiary…which I’m pretty sure was on an episode of Ghost Hunters. I could have stayed there all day if it wasn’t so cold. Here are some pics…
We had parked down the hill from the penitentiary (in a miraculously free spot I found) near the Philadelphia Museum of Art…which cost $18!!! Pay? For an art museum?? They’re all free in St. Louis!! Insane. So I walked (Sara ran) to the museum to see some of the costume exhibits we wanted to see. Here are some pics from there…
After we were done with the museum, we were both so tired, sore, and sick of life that we decided to skip the ghost tour we were supposed to go on 3 hours later at the Liberty Bell. And it was raining anyway, so we went back to the car and headed back to Newark. The steak place that Sara wanted to go to was apparently out of business, and we were starving. So we went to Outback down the road and waited 30 minutes for a table. We were bored, so we both texted Ryan and told him that Sara left me in Philly cause we were fighting. So he was calling us back and forth, trying to get us to make up…he’s so gullible.
So we went home and went to sleep, but not before Sara’s next door neighbor stunk up the room with his pot smoke coming through the walls…lovely. Saturday we went to Lancaster to see the Amish and go to the Tanger outlet. Well, we drove right past all of the Amish stores to go to downtown Lancaster. Sara insisted on parking at a meter, because she thinks that you HAVE to pay to park everywhere in Pennsylvania, but it was free parking as we found out. So we went through the stores down Queen Street and ate at a crepe shop…which was delicious. Then it started raining as we explored all of the vintage stores. In one store, Sara found a costume diamond ring from the 50s before I got to it. It’s way too big for her and fits me perfectly. Here’s the pic to prove it….
Well, I couldn’t find another cool ring…but I did get some cat-eye sunglasses from the 50s…
When we finally decided to leave it was pouring down…like seriously a monsoon!! We were completely soaked and stopped at Tanger outlet to get clothes and slippers to change into in the car. Here are the pics of the flash flood we had to drive through to get back to Delaware…
We stopped at Taco Bell because we couldn’t go to a restaurant dressed like we were and we didn’t want to get wet again. So Cody came over and we carved pumpkins (very sticky and gross) that turned out awesome!! Here they are…
Sunday, we stopped at Main Street in Newark so I could get some Sweet and Sassy Cupcakes to bring home for me and my mom. They didn’t exactly survive the plane ride even though I made sure they stayed upright and didn’t get jostled the whole trip…mine still tasted good anyway. Now I’m going to peruse local vintage stores to find a ring better than the one Sara stole from me….

We stopped at Taco Bell because we couldn’t go to a restaurant dressed like we were and we didn’t want to get wet again. So Cody came over and we carved pumpkins (very sticky and gross) that turned out awesome!! Here they are…
Sunday, we stopped at Main Street in Newark so I could get some Sweet and Sassy Cupcakes to bring home for me and my mom. They didn’t exactly survive the plane ride even though I made sure they stayed upright and didn’t get jostled the whole trip…mine still tasted good anyway. Now I’m going to peruse local vintage stores to find a ring better than the one Sara stole from me….Wednesday, October 28, 2009

"How we feel lonely, sometimes to the point of tears, but we don't let those tears come because we are not supposed to cry. Or how we feel a surge of love for a partner but we don't say anything because we're frozen with the fear of what those words might do to the relationship." ~ Tuesdays With Morrie
"Rush headlong and hard at life. Or just sit at home and wait. All things good and all the wrong will come right to you: it's fate. Hear the music, dance if you can. Dress in rags or wear your jewels. Drink your choice, nurse your fear in this old honky tonk of fools." ~ The Book of Counted Sorrows

On the road that I have taken, one day, walking, I awaken. One day, walking, I awaken, on the road that I have taken." ~ The Book of Counted Sorrows

"Passion is the source of our finest moments. The joy of love, the clarity of hatred, and the ecstasy of grief." ~ Buffy the Vampire Slayer
"It hurts sometimes more than we can bear. If we could live without passion, maybe we'd know some kind of peace. But we would be hollow. Empty rooms, shuttered and dark. Without passion we'd be truly dead." ~ Buffy the Vampire Slayer

I hate this paper under my hand because it isn't you. I even hate this letter because it's not the whole truth. Because the whole truth is so much more than a letter can even say. If you want to hate me, go ahead. If you want to burn this letter, do it. You could burn the whole world down, you could tell me to go to hell. I'd go, if you wanted me to. And I'd send you a letter from there." ~ My So Called Life
"What's amazing is when you can feel your life going somewhere. Like your life just figured out how to get good. Like, that second." ~ My So Called Life

"Beware the fury of a patient man." ~ John Dryden
"By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth, I sought him but I found him not." ~ Song of Solomon 3:1
"To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a little better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition, to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is the meaning of success." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
"Mine eye trickleth down and ceaseth not without any intermission." ~ Lamentations 3:49
"The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them-words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out. But it's more than that, isn't it? The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you've said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried while you were saying it. That's the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller but for want of an understanding ear." ~ The Body by Steven King

Williams
"I'm here but I'm really gone." ~ Alanis Morrissette
"Happiness fades, sadness is forever." ~ Johanna Schmitz

"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 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 when 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." ~ 10 Things I Hate About You

First Blog Ever--start of quotes
Well I just decided to start blogging on here because facebook and myspace will only save my last 10 blogs. So I've lost all the quotes I started putting up years ago.
