Each time that one loves is the only time one has ever loved. Difference of object does not alter singleness of passion. It merely intensifies it. We can have but one great experience at best, and the secret of life is to reproduce that experience as often as possible.
The Picture of Dorian Gray
Oscar Wilde
Good quote Ken,
The first three sentences are excellent and very thought provoking and the last bit :
" We can have one great experience at best, and the secret of life is to reproduce that experience as often as possible"
puts me in mind of a half remembered quote about addiction but I can't remember who said it.
Something about a junkie having one great high and spending the rest of his life trying, but failing, to reproduce it again.
That's gonna annoy me now. Cheers, John:)
"Now that it’s over
I just wanna hold her
I’d give up all the world to see that little piece of heaven looking
back at me
Now that it’s over
I just wanna hold her
I’ve gotta live with the choices i made
And I can’t live with myself today"
Skillet - Lucy
Many will walk in and out of your life,But only true friends will leave paw prints in your heart
Or "sand in the vaseline"
