"Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it. The love of fairplay is a spec tator ' s virtue, not a principal' s. Beware of the man who does not return your blow : he neither forgives you nor allows you to forgive yourself. Take care to get what you like or you will be forced to like what you get. He who can , does. He who cannot , teaches . Marriage is popular because it combines the maximum of temptation with the maximum of opportunity. " - Shaw

Brooke Mal<-ler

Every day is the same Drives me gently insane Like the wind and the rain . But I don't feel anything What is it to belong? To be different is wrong Have I been here too long? Still! don't feel anything But soon I'll be gone I shan't linger on Is there nothing beyond? Still! don 't feel anything

John Schalow

Alan Carr I get by with a little help from my friends I get high with a little help from my friends And it really doesn't matter if I'm wrong I'm right Where I belong I'm right Where I belong -Lennon

Nancy Murdock a stone, a leaf, an unfound door; of a stone, a leaf, a door. And of all the forgotten faces. Naked and alone we carne into exile. Remembering speechlessly we seek the great forgotten language, the lost lane-end into heaven, 0 lost, and by the wind grieved, ghost come back again. " -Wolfe

Dominique Perrier Vous, je ne vous regarde pas rna vie non plus ne vous regarde pas J'aime ce que j 'aime et cela seul me regarde et me voit J'aime ceux que j'aime. je les regarde ils m 'en donnent droit. Prevert

David Biddle Day after day alone on a hill the man with a foolish grin is keeping perfect! y still. But nobody ever hears him , or the sound he appears to make, and he never seems to notice, But the fool on the hill sees the sun going down, And the eyes in his head see the world going round. Lennon

You've been so long at the beach you even taste like the sun but ·the sun is much too warm even for love. I mean - I want you but night is only inches away and I can wait. Meanwhile watch the indolent butterfly playing on the tall flower in the yard and think about the sun's going down. It always does you know.

"Pour la premiere fois me voila, moi aussi, sur le chemin de l'aventure. Ce ne sont plus des coquilles abandonn~es par les eaux que je cherche, sous la direction de M. Seurel, ni des orchis que le mafue d 'ecole ne connaisse pas, ni meme, comme cela nous arrivait souvent dans le champ du p~re Martin, cette fontaine profonde et tarie, couverte d 'un grillage enfouie so us tant d 'herbes folles qu 'il fallait chaque fois plus de temps pour la retrouver ... Je cherche quelque chose de plus mywfrieux encore. C'est le passage dont il est question dans les livres, !'ancien chemin obstru~. celui dont le prince harasse de fatigue n'a pu trouver l'entre'e. Et soudain, en e'cartant, dans le feuillage profond, les branches, avec I . ce geste hesitant des mains hauteur du visage im{galement e'cartles, on l'aper~oit comme une longue avenue sombre dont la sortie est un rond de lumi'ere tout petit."

- Alain-Fournier

"Pour moi, j'ai r~solu de ne me point masquer et d'gtre moi-meme jusqu'a la fin, d'~couter, en tout, mon coeur dans ses epanchements comme dans ses indignations, et de me r~signer l bien accomplir rna loi. On me trahit de tout c~te', je le vois, et me laisse tramper par de'dain de . moi-m~me, par ennui de prendre rna d~fense. J'envie quelques hommes en voyant le plaisir qu 'ils trouvent ~ triompher de moi par des ruses grossi~res. Je suis d'ailleurs , assez venge par leur abaissement, qui m·Ueve ames yeux, et i1 me semble que la Providence ne peut laisser aller longtemps les choses de la sorte. . , N'avan-elle pas son but en me creant? Ai- je le droit de me roidir contre elle pour rerormer la nature?" - Vigny

Brian Bonner

Linda Ovedoff "Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. . . Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer." - Bertrand Russell

Bob Gassel

"Man is born to live, not to prepare for life. "1. He is here to reach out for that glorious ideal known as fulfillment , and use it as a tool for ·engraving his mark in this world. For if a man dies, knowing he has left nothing, then he really had no life to lose at all. 1. Boris Pasternak, Dr. Zhivago

"And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed . " - Gibran

Susan Wright

Bruce Sager

To little girls caught in patterns eternal; Keeping the beat of the Inner Clock and not knowing it; Mindlessly repeating as their mothers before them, yet thinking themselves unique on the winding , narrow road, timelessly followed, which ends in maturity : Time, immutable , passes all too quickly; The outlines of childhood carelessly sloughed , replaced too soon by fresh bloom' d maidenhood, and innocence forever flown . ..

Mia Lindquist A cheerful rider She watches life with a half smile Of bits of doubt and slight amusement; Then steps in with a sparkle of light And an infectious laugh That brightens the room.

Larry Draper Two roads diverged in the yellow woods, and I - I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Frost

"Life is no brief candle for me. lt is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for a moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations. " - George Bernard Shaw

Joe Ludwig

Merry Murtagh "The smallest package in the world is a man wrapped up in himself!"

Neil Brown

The nearer blood The nearer bloody . - Shakespeare

Bob Martin

"There are some which cannot be learned quickly, and time, which is all we have, must be paid heavily for their acquiring. They are the very simplest things, and because it takes a man's life to know them, the little new that each man gets from life is very costly and the only heritage he has to leave." Hemingway

Karen Wermuth 64

Sally Settlage

Life is divided into three terms -that which was, which is, and which will be, Let us learn from the past to profit by the present , and from the present to live better for the future.

Sylvia Sorter

1 celebrate myself and sing myself And what I assume you shall assume For every atom belonging to me as good as belonging to you

Some men see things as they are and say why? I see things as they never were and say why not? Robert F. Kennedy

David Kirk 67

Jeff Frohner "This is not the end. lt is not even the beginning of the end. is, perhaps, the end of the beginning. " -Churchill

But it

"Good morning. " shouted Piglet. "Good morning. " said Eeyore, "If it is a good morning. Which I doubt it is." -A . A . Milne

Susan Shaw

Her love had warmth and glow and softness, A body fair with gentle loftiness. I took her hand I felt her breathing , "Her ·heart was mine forever beating. She moved my blood I took her nearer She kissed my lips I could not see her. Her eyes caught mine two seas of darkness brightly gleaming in midnight closeness. We walked the beach 'til light invaded. She stopped and kissed and left unchanged . We met no more. She came no nearer except on nights her form seems closer.

Evan l(udlajev

Supplee

Consider the journey In weariness too heavy to wonder why Walking in a tundra-of harsh and livid stalks Planting polished blackwood poles Climbing to see above the undergrowth Observing the irritated sky Struggling slowly in a pathless land While crabs in their shells criticize the sand The myriad leaves harmonize in rain -swept fields As the wind sculpts the clouds The song never reaches the meticulous office-building deeds Or worshippers of "Joy of fear of hate of only selves" It's hard to hear the wind with the air conditioner on It's hard to leave the asphalt road with cliffs on both sides And in the dead of frozen winter , it's hard to cry -

Sarah Mustin "What I like doing best is Nothing." "How do you do Nothing?" asked Pooh , after he had wondered for a long time. "Well, it's when people call out at you just as you're off to do it, What are you going to do , Christopher Roben , and you say, Oh, nothing, and then you go and do it . " "Oh, I see , " said Pooh. "This is a nothing sort of thing that we're doing now . " "Oh , I see," said Pooh again. "It means just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering. " "Oh! " said Pooh.

Judy Freeman Woke up, it was a Chelsea morning And the first thing that 1 knew, There was milk and toast and honey And a bowl of oranges, too . And the light poured in like butterscotch And stuck to all my senses Oh won't you stay and we'll put on the day And we'll speak in present tenses. Joni Mitchell

Dan Sears

Ed l(otin

I wanted only to live in accordance with the promptings that came from my true self. Why was that so difficult? - Hermann Hesse

"Whenever I walk in a London street, I'm ever so careful to watch my feet; And I keep in the squares, And masses of bears, Who wait at the corners all ready to eat The sillies who tread on the lines of the street Go back to their lairs And I say to them, 'Bears, Just look how I'm walking in all of the squares.' " -A. A. Milne

l(ay Rumsey

Garry Hayner

Life is like a child's jump~ope Writhing smakelike on the sidewalk That displaces pebbles And shatters ants Yet a person may take the rope And move it in his own way And that is the beauty of Life. You may be displaced Or shattered By Life Or you may move it !n your own way And be whole.

Carole North The eye is a hungry mouth that feeds on the world. Architect of image worlds in competition with the real. There are twin planets in the skull. The eye is god. And the world, for it has its equator. Windows are eyes of the house. Peer out of your prison body, others peep in. Never a one-way traffic. "Seeing" always implies the possibility of damaged privacy, for as eyes reveal the huge external world, our own infinite internal spaces are opened for others. - Jim Morrison

Harry Baird You tell me that silence is nearer to peace than poems but if for my gift I brought you silence (for I know silence) you would say this is not silence this is another poem and you would hand ir back to me. Cohen

Claudette Johnson

Spring . . • a pleasant time alive, growing, eternal Spring . • • a time, nonetheless, a few short moments each different . • • and finite.

Fran l(offler "In the courtroom of our conscience, we call only witnesses for the defense."

Joan Clemenko "I am a parcel of vain strivings tied by a chance bond together."

Molin Chou "Self-reliance grows by exercising it, as a muscle grows strong by its use. Dependence on others creates weakness, which in tum calls for more dependence a vicious circle which brings failure . " Anonymous

Betty Ann George Who will buy this wonderful morning? Such a sky you never did see Who will tie it up with a ribbon, And put it ih a box for me? So I can see it at my leisure Whenever things go wrong, And I would keep it as a treasure To last my whole life long.

"I don't know how it is, Christopher Robin, but what with all this snow and one thing and another, not to mention icicles and such - like , it isn't so Hot in my field about three o'clock in the morning as some people think it is. It isn't Close, if you know what I mean not so as to be uncomfortable. It isn't Stuffy. In fact, Christopher Robin •.

Look around, The grass is high, The fields are ripe, It's the springtime of my life. Seasons change with the scenery; Won't you stop and remember me At any convenient time?" Paul Simon

Henry Chance Time it was, And what a time it was, It was •.. A time of innocence, A time of confidences, Long ago .•. it must be .•• I have a photograph. The faces are faded, But perhaps •.. somewhere ••• It still is.

Doug l(ligman "You never miss your water 'til your well runs dry. " Old Blues Song -by way of lightening Hopkins

Carol Glasser "Yes, personally speaking too, art heightens life. She gives deeper joy, she consumes more swiftly. She engraves adventures of the spirit and mind in the faces of her votaries; let them lead outwardly a life of the most cloistered calm, she will in the end produce in them a fastidiousness, an over-refinement, a nervous fever and exhaustion, such as a career of extravagant passions and pleasures can hardly show." Thomas Mann

Susan Cleaver "Let today embrace·the past with remembrance and the future with longing." - Kahlil Gibran

"We should be careful to get out of an experience only the wisdom that is in it and stop there, lest we be like the cat that sits on a hot stove-lid. She will never sit down on a hot stove -lid a gain - and that is well; but also, she will never sit on a cold one either. " - Mark Twain
