i must learn to love the fool in me-

the one who feels too much, talks too much,

takes too many chances,

wins sometimes and loses often,

lacks self-control, loves and hates,

hurts and gets hurt,

laughs and cries...

it alone protects me against that utterly

self-controlled masterful tyrant, whom I also harbor,

and who would rob me of human

aliveness, humility, and dignity,

but for my fool. 

––  theodore isaac rubin

you discover treasures

where others see nothing unusual
––  fortune cookie

in our sleep,

pain which cannot forget

falls drop by drop

upon the heart until,

in our despair, against our will,

comes wisdom

through the awful grace of god
––  aeschylus

i took a deep breath

and listened to the old brag

of my heart.

i am.  i am.  i am. 

––  sylvia plath
 

and those who were seen dancing

were thought to be insane by

those who could not hear the music 

––  friedrich nietzsche

the world is not respectable; it is mortal, tormented,

confused and deluded forever; but it is shot through with beauty,

with love, with glints of courage and laughter; and in these,

the spirit blooms timidly, and struggles to the light amid the thorns.

––  george santayana

be an outcast;
be pleased to walk alone
(uncool)
or line the crowded
river beds
with other impetuous
fools.
––  alice walker
