I read the other day, which I really liked...
"The more you understand the greatness of God, the less perplexed you are by the calamities of man."
it was something like that, I should have posted before I fell asleep...

"A virtuos woman is the crown of her husband" - Solomon
I read this when I was little, and since then that is all I've ever wanted to be... a virtuos woman.

"But no living man am I! You look upon a woman. Eowyn I am, Eomund's daughter. You stand between me and my lord and kin. Begone...For living or dark undead, I will smite you, if you touch him."
A great quote from the ever proud and noble Eowyn (from the Lord of the Rings). As she stood before an absolute evil she proclaimed this and it gave me chills. An amazing moment for women and Rohirrim everywhere ;D

Peaceful be heaven, peaceful the earth, peaceful the broad space between. Peaceful for us be the running waters, peaceful the plants and herbs! Peaceful to us be the signs of the future, peaceful what is done and undone, peaceful to us be what is and what will be. May all to us be gracious!
-Atharva Veda 19.9

Above all darkness rides the Sun and stars forever dwell. I will not say the day is done, nor bid the stars farewell. ~JRR Tolkien I like that one^ The lyrics to this song are very close to my mood right now... Artist: Keane Song: Somewhere Only We Know Album: Hopes & Fears
I walked across an empty land I knew the pathway like the back of my hand I felt the earth beneath my feet Sat by the river and it made me complete Oh simple thing where have you gone I'm getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you're gonna let me in I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
I came across a fallen tree I felt the branches of it looking at me Is this the place we used to love? Is this the place that I've been dreaming of?
Oh simple thing where have you gone I'm getting old and I need something to rely on So tell me when you're gonna let me in I'm getting tired and I need somewhere to begin
And if you have a minute why don't we go Talk about it somewhere only we know? This could be the end of everything So why don't we go Somewhere only we know?
