Once more she spoke. "How much do you love me, John?" she asked. He answered: "How much do I love you? Count the stars in the sky. Measure the waters of the oceans with a teaspoon. Number the grains of sand on the sea shore."
"Impossible, you say? Yes, and it is just as impossible for me to say how much I love you. Everything must have an ending except my love for you."
In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that layed him down
Or cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
But the fighter still remains
If everyone in the world liked RUSH, we fans wouldn't be as cool, right.....MEE

Apologizing does not always mean that you’re wrong and the other person is right. It just means that you value your relationship more than your ego.

You don't get something for nothing
You can't have freedom for free.
You won't get wise
With the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dream might be.

Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply. - Stephen R. Covey
good shit (and i stole it)
It fits these forums, especially the Porch, doesn't it?
yes.
i think it reaches much farther -
i actually thought of myself as soon as i read it. Wondering how often do i actually "listen" just to understand and hear the person speaking to me.

"love is giving someone the power to destroy you, but trusting them not to."
That's a good quote.
thanks.
i saw that somewhere and i am trying to work a bastardization of that line into a song i am working on. i think it is a good theme for art because it is true. but if i really want to use it i am finding that i am gonna blow up the whole song and change the arrangement, or create something else.
the quote is a very simple view of a complex emotion. and i like things like that. as people can tell from my posts, i am not great at being concise so i like concise statements like that.

I agree with you. The idea could be used in a lot of ways.

(i paraphrased the end slightly)
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that layed him down
Or cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
But the fighter still remains

Put your songs up when they're done!
they aren't good. i would not do that to everyone here...
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
You may as well put them up, gimme. You know what a relentless crowd we are.
Besides, I'm guessing you are your own worst critic.
i was thinking no feedback is good feedback...
i guess you didn't get it
