A place for me to work stuff out and to post things that interest me.
Most of us can, if we choose,
make this world either a palace or a prison.
~Lord Avebury
I choose a palace.

Do not let your fire go out,
spark by irreplaceable spark,
in the hopeless swamps of the approximate,
the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all.
Do not let the hero in your soul perish,
in lonely frustration for the life you deserved,
but have never been able to reach.
Check your road and the nature of your battle.
The world you desired can be won.
It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.
~Ayn Rand
The democratic society's mythology of equality with its
attendant erasure of difference is an impossibility
in an actual, lived sense.
Therefore, according to this view, this
imaginary erasure cannot achieve an
actual democracy, because a sense of
community can only come with the recognition of difference.
~Slavoj Zizek, as paraphrased by Catherine M. Soussloff

I thought the place was very cool. Oh, and all you Alias fans, you can find a very nice wallpaper there--
or rather, here--and a gorgeous Evanescence one, too!

Beyond the Invisible
| 
The tale of the world is like a tree.
...
Sturdily rooted in the past, the tale's branches spread out through the days that come. The many stories that make up its substance
unfold from bud to leaf to dry memory and back again, event connecting event like the threadwork of a spider's web, so that each creature of the world plays its part, understanding only aspects of the overall narrative, and perceiving, each with its particular talents, only glimpses
of the Great Mystery that underlies it all.
~Charles de Lint, Moonheart

HAPPY 4th of JULY!!!
It's a little early, but since I'm leaving right after work and probably won't have much internet access this weekend, I probably won't have the opportunity to post this then. Wish me luck that my 4th is better than last year's (the only really good part was a day at the lake--the rest of the time consisted mostly of him sniping at me constantly and I wasn't extremely thrilled with the party that I lovingly refer to as "The Redneck 4th of July of the Year").
Meanwhile, to all of you celebrating the holiday (or at least getting an extra day off), have a great one. And for everyone who are simply looking forward to another weekend, I hope it's good for you, too! (Jewels, I know you'll probably have to work, so if you smite any of the rude or obnoxious people at the movie theater, just make sure you hide the bodies really well! *kiss*)
