Antheno’s most loved Quotables

Love is an illusion, but I would willingly fall for it if I could believe in it.

Despair and Deception, Love's ugly little twins
Came a-knocking on my door, I let them in
Darling, you're the punishment for all of my former sins

You fall in love, it's intoxicating, and for a little while you feel like you've actually become one with the other person. Merged souls, and so on. You think you'll never be lonely again. Only it doesn't last and soon you realize you can only get so close, and you end up brutally disappointed, more alone than ever, because the illusion -the hope you'd held on to all those years-has been shattered.

Whatever you hate about you, you hate about everybody else because you cannot love beyond your love for yourself.

When the power of love overpowers the love of power, the world will know peace.

You can't blame gravity for falling in love.

Love doesn't make the world go round, it makes the ride worthwhile.

Don't mind anything anyone tells you about anyone else. Judge everyone and everything for yourself.

You should do whatever your heart desires. The idea of “normal” should be less important to you than what you’re comfortable with.

We are all full of weakness and errors; let us mutually pardon each other our follies.

I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity.

Some people never go crazy. What truly horrible lives they must lead.

Do the difficult things while they are easy and do the great things while they are small. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.

Its easy to do what your heart says, difficult to do what your brain says, especially when you've been thinking using a much smaller organ throughout your life.

Dare I say I miss him? I do. I miss him. I still see him in my dreams. They are nightmares mostly, but nightmares tinged with love. Such is the strangeness of the human heart.

How could I have known this rapture would make me so crazy, turn my heart into a hell and my eyes into rivers?

If you want to be happy for a short time, get drunk;
happy for a long time, fall in love;
happy forever, take up gardening.

There is love in your body but you can't hold it in
It pours from your eyes and spills from your skin
Tenderest touch leaves the darkest of marks
And the kindest of kisses break the hardest of hearts

In loneliness, in sickness, in confusion-the mere knowledge of friendship makes it possible to endure, even if the friend is powerless to help. It is enough that they exist. Friendship is not diminished by distance or time, by imprisonment or war, by suffering or silence. It is in these things that it roots most deeply. It is from these things that it flowers.

Sometimes your nearness takes my breath away; and all the things I want to say can find no voice. Then, in silence, I can only hope my eyes will speak my heart.
