My favorite quotes

"I can believe things that are true and I can believe
things that aren't true and I can believe things where
nobody knows if they're true or not. I can believe in
Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny and Marilyn Monroe and
the Beatles and Elvis and Mister Ed. Listen- i believe
that people are perfectible, that knowledge is infinite,
that the world is run by secret banking cartels and is
visited by aliens on a regular basis, nice ones that look
like wrinkledy lemurs and bad ones who mutilate cattle and
want our water and women. I believe that the future sucks
and I believe that the future rocks and I believe that one
day White Buffalo Woman is going to come back and kick
everyone's ass. I believe that all men are just overgrown
boys with deep problems communicating and that the decline
in good sex in America is coincident with the decline in
drive-in movie theaters from state to state. I believe
that all politicians are unprincipled crooks and I still
believe that they are better than the alternative. I
believe that California is going to sink into the sea
when the big one comes and, while Florida is going to
dissolve into madness and alligators and toxic waste. I
believe tat antibacterial soap is destroying our
resistance to dirt and disease so that one day we'll all
be wiped out by the common cold like the martians in "War
of the Worlds." I believe that the greatest poets of the
last century were Edith Sitwell and Don Marquis, that jade
is dried dragon sperm, and that thousands of years ago in
a former life I was a one_armed Siberian shaman. I believe
that mankind's destiny lies in the stars. I believe that
candy eally did taste better when I was a kid, that it's
aerodynamically impossible for a bumblebee to fly, that
light is a wave and a particle, that there's a cat in a
box somewhere who's alive and dead at the same time
(although if they don't ever open the box to feed it it'll
eventually just be two different kinds of dead), and that
there are stars in the unvierse billions of years older
than the universe itself. I believe in a personal god who
cares about me and worries and oversees everything I do. I
believe in an imperosnal god who set the universe in
motion and went off to hang with her girlfriends and
doesn't even know that I'm alive. I believe in an empty
and godless universe of casual chaos, background noise,
and sheer blind luck. I believe that anyone who says that
sex is overrated just hasn't done it properly. I believe
that anyone who claims to know what's going on will lie
about the little things too. I believe in absolute honesty
and sensible lies. I believe in a woman's right to choose,
a baby's right to live, that while all human life is
sacred there's nothing wrong with the death penalty if you
can trust the legal system implicity, and that no one but
a moron would ever trust the legal system. I believe that
life is a game, that life is a cruel joke, and that life
is what happens when you're alive and that you might as
well lie back and enjoy it."

This is my favorite book quote. It comes from the
book "American Gods" and I wanted to share it with
people... It made me think so hopefully it made you think
too.

My other favorite quote is:
You can complain because roses have thorns or you can
rejoice because thorns have roses.
