Quotes. Some have relevance to our own lives. Others are just simply amusing.
"The price of existence is eternal warfare" - Aleister Crowley (one of my personal favs - not just my quote of the day, but quite possibly my quote for life. The Book of Lies is currently on my 'to read list').

Lady at work after I told her I was not a butcher thus I could not special cut something.

In honor of the memorial being today and the whole thing with Michael Jackson, words from his song "They Dont Care About Us" that always struck a chord with me, especially when he was still alive and having to deal with the problems he had:
"Beat me. Bash me. You can never trash me. Hit me. Kick me. You can never get me...."

More of the Nixon tapes were recently released by the presidential library. Notably, he expresses concern about the Supreme Court's decision on Roe vs. Wade. However, being a man of common sense, he believed that there were exceptions for which abortion should be allowed:
"There are times when an abortion is necessary. I know that. When you have a black and a white. Or a rape."-Richard Nixon

Having gotten so drunk tonight that I slept in my car for 5 hours, this quote comes courtesy of the guy who discovered me when he left the party I was at:
"The fuck are you doing? Did you pass out in your car? I've never seen anyone do that."
Jokes on him cause when I woke up to him talking to me, I was sober and was able to drive home. My plan worked!

Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself - and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be who they really are.

This is life. So go and have a ball. Because the world don't move to the beat of just one drum. What might be right for you may not be right for some. You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and there you have...my opening statement. Sit, Ubu, sit. Good dog.
