Sometimes music, long walks, showers, or long drives will get my mind turning over new ideas. Also, sometimes reading or watching something new will kick start my creative juices.(less)

Comments and Doom

 So, I walked away for a little bit and some crazy things started happening in the comments for the blog.  There were literally thousands of unnecessary, piggyback comments.  For the sake of my sanity (I could not read through all of them) all the comments for the last few years have been deleted and, from now on, comments will be moderated.  I'm sorry to all of you whose comment was genuine and i

Quotes by A.L. Davroe  (?)

“What you humans need to do is find beauty in the fact that something is naturally the way it is. Perhaps then you wouldn't be so destructive." [Meems says to Ellani]”
A.L. Davroe, Nexis

“I am preprogrammed, acting on impulse, dumping a vast memory into a whirling pool and somehow bringing order to it. Building a complex web. I am the spider. This is my venomous bite. I will make them see their folly.”
A.L. Davroe, Nexis

“His fingers tighten, drawing my leg open so that ours knees touch and he leans closer to me. “Not at all,â€� he whispers in a spine-tingling purr, eyes alight with secret sparkle. “It should scare you. It should scare you and enliven you. It should make you want to start a fire. Because you can.”
A.L. Davroe, Nexis

“I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing.”
Neil Gaiman, The Sandman, Vol. 9: The Kindly Ones

“We are all born mad. Some remain so.”
Samuel Beckett

“She would defend herself, saying that love, no matter what else it might be, was a natural talent. She would say: You are either born knowing how, or you never know.”
Gabriel García Márquez, Love in the Time of Cholera

“Every angel is terrifying.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Duino Elegies

“If your daily life seems poor, do not blame it; blame yourself, tell yourself that you are not poet enough to call forth its riches; for to the creator there is no poverty and no poor indifferent place.”
