- Impact Over Intent
Many people don't understand that impact always matters more than intent. What you meant to do or say holds much less weight than how your actions or words were perceived. I was just talking to someone about this a few nights ago, and it really does seem to me that common sense might not be that common. What you did had a specific impact on me regardless of how you intended it to. Not everyone has the ability to take responsibility for their actions, that's clear.

- Corporate-Centric National Security
The president operates effectively as head of the national security state as long as he stays within the parameters of its primary dedication-which is to advance the interests of corporate investors and protect the overall global capital accumulation process.
Big Thief
- Vampire Empire
Well, I walked into your dagger for the last time. It's like trying to start a fire with matches in the snow. Where you can't seem to hold me, can't seem to let me go, so I can't find surrender and I can't keep control. You turn me inside out, then you want me outside in. You spin me all around, and then you ask me not to spin. You say you wanna be alone and you want children. You wanna be with me and you wanna be with him.

- Affirmations - Alex Hormozi
You don't become confident by shouting affirmations in the mirror, but by having a stack of undeniable proof that you are who you say you are. Outwork your self doubt.
Charles Manson
- Death Grips - Beware
I don't want to take my time going to work, I got a motorcycle and a sleeping bag and ten or fifteen girls! What the hell I wanna go off into - and go to work for? Work for what, money? I got all the money in the world! I'm the king, man, I run the underworld, guy! I decide whose does what, and where they do it at! What am I, gonna run around and act like I'm some teenybopper somewhere, for somebody else's money? I make the money, man, I roll the nickels, the game is mine!

- Favourite love story
My favourite love story has to be about a man who loved the world so much, but wasn't even promised that this world would love him back. Took the wage of the sins of this world on his back, and died on the cross for their sins so that they could be forgiven and have a relationship with his father. These people beat him and tortured him. On his last final breath, he prayed to God and asked to forgive these people because they didn't know what they were doing.
Vast Error
- White Noise, on the Genesis Frog
THE giant frog, if you will. That's the aforementioned Solitary Universe, where Repiton once resided. It's empty now, of course. Nothing but dying stars and countless barren worlds that should have been teeming with life. The weight that you feel on your back is, in part, empathy. A terminal condition for those of us who carry bleeding hearts. I'm afraid that ache never goes away.

Be thankful for the blood... You are not allowed to spill even a single drop on the ground... for if you do... your torso and head shall have a sorrowful parting.

- Random Thoughts
From time to time I find myself drifting off into my own mind, playing different scenarios over and over. I've meticulously dreamed every detail in each scenario. "How different everything would be right in this moment had the events taken the slightest detour," I'd think to myself. It makes me realize just how fragile life is, and how each and every single experience- if changed even just a little- could have an entirely different impact than it originally would have had. That's terrifying.

Wouldn't it be strange to just post an odd arrangement of made up words that don't really form a sentence. Can you type as quickly when it doesn't make sense? Let's try. Dag friend bowl lamp giving runs skywardly innards and overlers just cantaloupe the realm if quintuplets farming socks. How'd you do?
Ashley Kutcher
- Love You From A Distance
I still see your face when I go to sleep. I'll always love you, will you always love me? I hate that all these memories are so persistent. But now I know. I know how hard it is to move on with my life. When all of these daydreams come back to me at night. I hate that it'll take time to forget this, but now I know. It's better to love you from a distance. To love you from a distance.

- Isn't this so meta
I log onto this website to type quotes from various books, some from movies or music, and every time I find 50 quotes saying "Hello person typing on your keyboard! Isn't it so cool that I'm talking directly to you about using this website, exactly what you're doing right now?" It isn't cool, it drives me insane, please stop I swear to god.
Pierce Brown, Red Rising
- People of Song and Dance
I look at him for a moment. Words are a weapon stronger than he knows. And songs are even greater. The words wake the mind. The melody wakes the heart. I come from a people of song and dance. I don't need him to tell me the power of words. But I smile nonetheless.
Andrew Hussie
- Rose's Walkthrough - Caveats and Condolences
But don't beat yourself up about it. There was never anything you could have done to prevent it. The end is happening right now, as I type, and as you read. I have come to understand that we were always doomed through our collective ignorance, and now further doomed by those few who know, and struggle to flee. If you're lucky, you'll be among the smaller subset of the latter who are successful.

- Skeleton Appreciation Day - Everything Is a Lot
To cut down on my silhouette, my favorite foods are smoke and hearts. My leftovers fret, forget stiletto self-vendettas, while my cracking backbone lacks but backs up my false starts. All nightmares start as dreams, and I hear my subconscious screaming. They say that beauty's just skin deep, so, naturally, please show me your bones...

- Time Doesn't Heal All Wounds
Have you ever heard the saying that "time heals all wounds." Well that I just simply not true. Time doesn't heal all wounds. It only covers them with scar tissue. It's still there just not as noticeable or seen. There is a change that you will forget about it but the second that someone starts to mess with it. The wound will open back up again. Therefore, time does not heal all wounds.

Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty, and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds. I suppose we all thought that one way or another.

- Money Game Part 2
Strange times we're living in; panic and hysteria. Poor man, learn the rich man don't care for ya. Narcissist mindset spread like malaria. Sit back and watch the show, America. Britain split through fickle shit, a government of hypocrites, these counterfeit politicians sit in parliament, not adequate. Needlessly bleeding resources all dry, turn a blind eye if it means a pay rise. "Oh, what a shame it would be, I would die" If Number 10 Downing Street burned in a fire.
Typer
- Take a break.
Recently, I have been struggling to increase my typing score and have felt frustrated and defeated. In my frustration, I decided to stop typing all together and find other hobbies until I got my motivation back. To my surprise, when I returned to typing, I found that I'm much faster, and my accuracy was boosted too. In conclusion, if you feel stuck, take a break, and then come back. There is no shame in it.

- Truth hurts but lie kills
I'm telling you, it is okay to tell me the truth and hurt me a thousand ways, rather than to lie and hurt me a million more. Trust strengthens with every necessary pain but weakens with unnecessary ones. You will be hurt no matter who you are with; you just need to know for whom the pain is worth it.
