Soundtrack to Falling in Love



"All of me...
You found your way to all of me.
And, helplessly, I've fallen like a child
Hopelessly, I'm hoping you're the one for me
You comfort me
With every certain smile."

Writing In The Darkness

"My darling,

I'm waiting for you. How long is an hour in the dark? Or a week? The fire is gone and I'm horribly cold. I really should drag myself outside but then there'd be the sun. I'm afraid I waste the light on the paintings, not writing these words. We die. We die rich with lovers and tribes, tastes we have swallowed, bodies we've entered and swum up like rivers. Fears we've hidden in - like this wretched cave. I want this all marked on my body. Where the real countries are. Not boundaries drawn on maps with the names of powerful men. I know you'll carry me out to the Palace of Winds. That's what I've wanted: to walk in such a place with you. With friends, on an earth without maps. The lamp has gone out and I'm writing in the darkness..."

Morning Revelation (II)

I'm a slow motion accident lost in coffee rings and fingerprints. I don't wanna feel anything but I do, and it all comes back to you.

The War Of The Sexes (part 06)

'Women need to like the job of the guy they’re with. If they don’t like the job, they don’t like the guy. Men know this, which is why they make up the phony bogus names for the jobs they have. “Alright, I’m the regional manager supervisor of development research consulting.”
Men, on the other hand, if they are physically attracted to a woman, are not that concerned with her job. Men don’t really care. Men will just go: “Really? A slaughterhouse? Is that where you work? You’re just whacking their heads off? That’s great. Listen, why don’t you shower up and we’ll get some burgers and catch a movie.”'

On Books

"We need to make books cool again. If you go home with somebody and they don’t have books, don’t fuck them."

A Rush of Blood to the Head



"He said I'm going to buy this place and burn it down
I'm going to put it six feet underground
He said I'm going to buy this place and watch it fall
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls
Oh I'm going to buy this place and start a fire
Stand here until I fill all your heart's desires
Because I'm going to buy this place and see it burn
Do back the things it did to you in return
He said Oh I'm going to buy a gun and start a war
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
Oh and I'm going to buy this place, that's what I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head to the head."

Invictus

"Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul."

The War Of The Sexes (part 05)

"Men can't be friends with women, Howard. They must posses them or leave them be. It's a primitive urge from caveman days. It's all in Darwin. Hunt the flesh. Kill the flesh. Eat the flesh. That's the, ah, male sex all over."

Call It A Night

'You know, I think that even if you’ve had a relationship with someone, or let’s say, ESPECIALLY if you’ve had a relationship with someone, and you try and become friends afterwards, it’s very difficult. It’s hard because you know each other so well; you know… you know all each other’s tricks. It’s like two magicians trying to entertain each other, and one goes “Look, a rabbit” and the other goes “So?! I believe that’s your card. Look, why don’t we just saw each other in half and call it a night.”'

Yet Another Road Not Taken

"It's my purgatory, really, inner drinks, whatever. I'm never really all that interested, but I find myself telling her how beautiful she is anyway. 'Cause it's true, all women are, in one way or another. You know, there's always something about every damn one of you, it's a smile, a curve, a secret. You ladies really are the most amazing creatures, my life's work. But then there's that morning after, a hangover, and a realization that I'm not quite as available as I thought the night before. And then she's gone, and I'm haunted by yet another road not taken."

Begin The Begin

"Fresh starts. Thanks to the calendar, they happen every year... just set your watch to January. Our reward for surviving the holiday season is a new year. Bringing on the great tradition of new years resolutions. Put your past behind you and START OVER. It's hard to resist the chance of a new beginning, a chance to put the problems of last year to bed."

(GA, s02, ep13)
