You ask me where I get my ideas. That I cannot tell you with certainty.

They come unsummoned, directly, indirectly - I could seize them with

my hands - out in open air, in the woods, while walking,

in the silence of the nights, at dawn, excited by moods

which are translated by the poet into words, by me into tunes

that sound and roar and storm about me till

I have set them down in notes.

~Ludwig van Beethoven~

Koselig tråd!

Husker vi samla mye på sitater og små sikt før, her er et jeg husker godt, syntes det var så fint!

To love is painful

that is true

and not to love

is painful too

But still the greatest pain there is

-to love and not be loved by you

[Gjest vimse]

Himmelen, solen, latter og gråt.

Vi er ikke alle i samme båt.

Venner, venner og venner min venn.

Du lever i dag og aldri igjen.

Du er deg selv, glem ikke det.

Enhver er sin egen lykkes smed.

Gjør det du ønsker, ikke som andre.

Søk etter vegen du selv vil vandre.

Livet er vakkert, bruk det i dag!

Skrik ut din lykke, må du, så klag.

Kjenn på din lykke, glem disiplin.

CARPE DIEM, dagen er din.
