• (Television) rots the senses in the head!
  It kills imagination dead!
  It clogs and clutters up the mind!
  It makes a child so dull and blind
  He can no longer understand
  A fantasy, a fairyland!
  His brain becomes as soft as cheese!
  His powers of thinking rust and freeze!
  He cannot think -he only sees!

  Roald Dahl

• Basic characteristics of an individual organism: to divide, to unite, to merge into the universal, to abide in the particular, to transform itself, to define itself, and as living things tend to appear under a thousand conditions, to arise and vanish, to solidify and melt, to freeze and flow, to expand and contract. Since these effects occur together, any or all may occur at the same moment.

  Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

• Your smile is one that goes on for miles. Your eyes shine like the brightest star in the night sky. When I see the first message you send me in the morning it lights up my day. When our lips touch I feel like I'm the luckiest guy alive. When I hold you in my arms I feel as if time freezes and nothing can tear us apart. You constantly make me smile and there's never a moment that goes by that I don't think of you. You mean the world to me and I don't know what I'd do without you in my life. I truly love you!

  Richard M. Ryan

  Morning, Stars, Love You
