What's the subject?


- lilbones - 02-23-2005

Yes specificity is needed here.
Gord has said a lot of stuff over the years, most of it probably unrelatable to the subject at hand.


- Chester - 02-23-2005

the subject, is quotes that sort of, umm....reflect how you live your life...i know you guys don't know me...but maybe if there was any particular ones that reflect how YOU live your life, i could be similar.

in lyrics...

the entire song "It's a Good Life If You Don't Weaken"

and

"Use it up, use it all up, don't save a thing for later"

actually thats exactly what i was thinking.

"I love you even when I don't even know I'm doin' it, dismiss it out of hand, 'cause I don't even know I'm doin' it, but your finger starts to wiggle, and landscapes emerge."

"'why's the world so creepy?' She asked, I told her that it isn't, that it's just exqusite."

Here's one of my favorites:

"It's just very pleasing and comforting to know that in the affairs of the heart, we're all fifteen forever." ---GD; introducing Lake Fever 01.01.00

Here's a great "Gordie said site": http://members.fortunecity.com/emperorpenguin/quotes1.htm

Can't remember whose site it is but it's a nice collection of colloquialisms.

And for our weaker (or maybe stronger) moments

"Maybe we're born lost; Born to persevere."

Disappointin' you is gettin' me down


- thipfan73 - 02-24-2005

"I've got a job, I explore. I follow every little whiff. I want my life to smell like this"


- LaminarFlow - 02-24-2005

"do you like to be judged or liked do you like it inside a barrel plunging
over the falls? curious and grim we wrestle at the rim we wonder all about him and the point of it all"
"and the real wonder of the world is that we don't jump too"

God, I love that song...

My favorite:

"We're forced to bed, but we're free to dream"


- fingernailsonhull - 02-24-2005

If you like our conversation, it's as faint a sound in my memory as those fingernails scratching on my hull!


- thipfan73 - 02-24-2005

I'm surprised nobody has come up with these

"Life is forgetting"

"There's no simple explanation
For anything important
Any of us do
And the human tragedy
Consists in the necessity
Of living with the consequences
Under pressure."
