"We were always dead against the war."

Bertie Ahern

“Man's only true happiness is to live in hope of something to be won by him.”
“Who will dance on the floor in the round?”
“The more we know about our universe, the more difficult it becomes to believe in determinism.”

“We need time to dream, time to remember, and time to reach the infinite. Time to be.”
“All I know is that I have way more stuff that I want to write about than I possibly have time to.”
“Three hundred men, who all know each other direct the economic destinies of the Continent and they look for successors among their friends and relations. This is not the place to examine the strange causes of this strange state of affairs which throws a ray of light on the obscurity of our social future.”
“There are films you see that only reach your eyes. Then there are films that you can watch... that reach down to your throat, or reach your heart. "In the Mood for Love," though, reached all the way to my belly.”
“You are Life passing through your body, passing through your mind, passing through your soul. Once you find that out, not with logic, not with the intellect, but because you can feel that Life-you find out that you are the force that makes the flowers open and close, that makes the hummingbird fly from flower to flower. You find out that you are in every tree, and you are in every animal, vegetable, and rock. You are that force that moves the wind and breathes through your body. The whole universe is a living being that is moved by that force, and that is what you are. You are Life.”
