undressing the words

Mostly public entries.

We all complete. Maybe none of us really understand what we've lived through
or feel we've had enough time.

i never want to treat another wounded man again

Oh Lord, grant that I shall never seek so much to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, or to be loved as to love with all my heart. With all my heart.

We are right to get criticism but we’re not right to be told that we don’t have character in the team.

the plan is to build a team around a strong basis of young players

Gibbs, Jenkinson, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Ramsey and Wilshere represent a core of the squad and it’s an extension for a long period for all of them. I’m a strong believer in stability and I believe when you have a core of British players, it’s always easier to keep them together and that’s what we’ll try to achieve going forward. - Arsene Wenger

flesh and blood

Look at you, a bunch of jealous idiots, liars, betraying each other. I don't need that. I get my strength from being alone, and that's why I'm going to destroy all of you.

Guy gets on the subway and dies. Think anybody'll notice?

Someday? Someday my dream will come? One night you will wake up and discover it never happened. It’s all turned around on you. It never will. Suddenly you are old. Didn’t happen, and it never will, because you were never going to do it anyway. You'll push it into memory and then zone out in your barco lounger, being hypnotized by daytime TV for the rest of your life. Don't you talk to me about murder. All it ever took was a down payment on a Lincoln town car. That girl, you can't even call that girl. What the fuck are you still doing driving a cab?

come back to me

Dearest Cecilia, the story can resume. The one I had been planning on that evening walk. I can become again the man who once crossed the Surrey park at dusk, in my best suit, swaggering on the promise of life. The man who, with the clarity of passion, made love to you in the library. The story can resume. I will return. Find you, love you, marry you and live without shame.

what we do in life echoes in eternity

My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius. Commander of the Armies of the North. General of the Felix Legions. Loyal servant to the true Emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife – and I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.

sophocles said, that to never have been born may be the greatest boon of all

People are afraid to face how great a part of life is dependent on luck. It’s scary to think so much is out of one’s control. There are moments in a match when the ball hits the top of the net, and for a split second, it can either go forward or fall back. With a little luck, it goes forward, and you win. Or maybe it doesn’t, and you lose.

I was one of the first. Sicily in 1943, killed by a mortar.

Cost you everything? You don’t know what everything means.
