By and by, by and by?
Is a better home awaiting
In the sky, in the sky?” —Will the Circle Be Unbroken, Christian hymn

Instead of these comedians” —The Comedians, Elvis Costello

“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you find you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start over again.”

“
Oh! Hush thee, my baby, the night is behind us,
And black are the waters that sparkled so green.
The moon, o’er the combers, looks downward to find us,
At rest in the hollows that rustle between.
Where billow meets billow, then soft be thy pillow,
Oh weary wee flipperling, curl at thy ease!
The storm shall not wake thee, nor shark overtake thee,
Asleep in the arms of the slow swinging seas!
“There’s a glow of light
The St. Jimmy is the spark in the night
Bearing gifts and trust
A fixture in the city of lust
…..
In the crowd of pain.
St. Jimmy comes without any shame
He says “we’re fucked up
But we’re not the same
And mom and dad are the ones you can blame”
Jimmy died today
He blew out his brains into the bay
In the state of mind
Is my own private suicide” —Homecoming, Green Day (via longlivevoxpopuli)

“To be, or not to be: that is the question:
Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep;” —Hamlet, ACt III, v. i, William Shakespeare
