I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

I saw (heard, of course) this quote in a Canadian series entitled Dark Oracle, supposedly aimed at teens and young adults. (I loved it, anyway.) I made this image myself, for my Facebook cover, years ago. 

Simple but effective "words of wisdom", methinks.

So it appears I'm not the only person in the whole world who remembers that show! It was aired in Poland with a horrible dub but I used to watch it anyway. The wole mystery of the "ankh" thing was pretty cool.

As for my favorite quote and stuff it would be:
"Out of chaos comes music" - Roine Stolt.

Wow, really surprised that someone else knows Dark Oracle here; considering its popularity(!) on IMDB.

An autopsy has revealed that the death was caused by an autopsy 

One of the first Russian one-liners that comes to mind.

My quote is: 


Never leave the house without clean underwear on...because you never know if you end up in A&E 
Friedrich Nietzsche: "Without music, life would be a mistake."



Music Is Live

Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed.



Keep Calm And Listen To The Music…

"in der Nacht sind alle Katzen grau" ("by night all cats are gray"). this German proverb is descriptive of the fact that differences in appearance are difficult to recognize when it is dark. example: "my new girlfriend is definitely no supermodel, but who cares? by night all cats are gray"

Can we quote ourselves?

"Nothing is 'ahead of its time'; it is just, cultural evolution is steady and slow."

If we can quote ourselves I will say this: "I am not a pervert, you are sexually boring".

Every form you see has its archetype in the divine world, beyond space; if the form perishes, what matter is that, since its heavenly model is indestructible? Every beautiful form you have seen, every meaningful word you have heard—be not sorrowful that all this must be lost; for it is not really so. The divine Source is immortal, and its spring gives water unceasingly; since neither the one nor the other can be stopped, wherefore do you lament? From the first moment when you entered this world of existence, a ladder has been set up before you.

Jalāl ad-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī
