so i've been thinking about my senior quote
what with all this senior picture stuff going on, my thoughts have gravitated to the topic of my senior quote. what will it be? of all possible words in this language, what combination will sum up entirely who i am and what i want to be? what combination willl equal a compliation of every idea and dream i have racing around in my head?
well, here are some moving ones that i've found- here are my options so far:
"all the golden land's ahead of you and all kinds of unforseen events wait lurking to surprise you and make you glad you're alive to see" jack kerouac
"the air was soft, the stars so fine, the promise of every cobbled alley to great (that i though i was in a dream)" jack kerouac
"do not let your fire go out, spark by irresplaceable spark, in the hopeless swamps of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. do not let the hero in your soul perish in lonely frustration for the life you have deserved but have never been able to reach. check your road and the nature of your battle. the world you desired can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it's yours."
"by believing passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. the nonexistent is whatever we have no sufficiently desired."
"of this i am certain: nothing great in this world was ever accomplished without passion." georg wilhelm friedrich hegel
"each of us has a fire in our hearts for something. it's our goal in life to find it and to keep it lit." mary lou retton
"you have to find something that you love enough to be able to take risks, jump over the hurdles and break through the brick walls that are always going to be placed in front of you." george lucas
i love them alll. i dono, maybe i just haven't found THE ONE yet, but if i never end up finding it, then i'm still going to have to choose between all of the choices here and the ones i find in the mean time :\

No possible combination of words could do that.
