Is unfulfilled ambition the purpose of life? That must be quite hard to achieve, if not impossible.
Those who take up space should take up as much as possible, then try to grab some more for the cause.
If you go and do something you want to do, like as not you will be watched while you do it; but who is watching you and for what reasons, if you are so worth watching by those who like to watch what other people want to do when they do it?
Some people will come up to some sort of metaphorical brick wall in life and stand there looking at it; others recognize it for what it is and turn around and walk off in another direction.
In very many situations people will seek to impose their will upon you, and if you don’t notice them doing it you’ll let them.
If you can find your place in society they’ll pat you on the back as if you deserve it, rather than kick you up the backside like you deserve it when you don’t.
Celebrities must have a public face, and a private face; but no matter where they are they’re always performing to an audience.
When you realize that you can have memories that you don’t want, what you do to acquire them becomes that which it is important to avoid.
The potential loser must choose to loose in a potentially advantageous environment; indeed, quietude and calmness of mind must have already taken possession of his being.
You can get someone down at cost price if he gives it to you on a plate; however, you still have to exercise extreme caution at appropriate instances of this.
What are haunting memories other than irritating reflections on what might have been better off left unseen yet again?
If you’re not careful with what you’re selling, when what’s left of it gets to be got, what you’ve got won’t be worth getting by those who go out and get what’s worth to be got anyway.
Monkey-magic comes straight out of the backscratchers ethical shit-hole of a life; and yet you must expect to be trained when and where to smile about it all, after all.
Essentially, life is a maze in which you can so easily take the wrong turning on the way to the bathroom once too often, and then simply blame the resultant mess on someone else.
As body language always reveals our true feelings, so then if you look like a psychopath, then you probably are.
About Me
- Drew Byrne
- Basically, I am someone interested in quotations, those mainly being of an aphoristic form; consequently, I have collected many examples together over the years, ones which I most liked, warmed to, or appreciated. Although most of these I cannot really now recall without looking them up, and so I supppose are not of much use except as written ornaments to an inefficient memory, but so it goes. I am interested in archaeology, history, and antiques, although not as much as I once was. Philosophy, also, has interested me from time to time, although I never learned much about it. It has been said (although certainly not by me) that “in time, most men become philosophers, although not particularly good ones.” I can say without much hesitation that that I am one of these fellows.
