I'm stubborn.
Peatón / Pedestrian:

Iba entre el gentío

por el bulevar Sebastó,

pensando en sus cosas.

El rojo lo detuvo.

Miró hacia arriba:

                        sobre

las grises azoteas, plateado

entre los pardos pájaros,

un pascada volaba.

Cambió el semáforo hacia el verde.

Se preguntó al cruzar la calle

en qué estaba pensando.


///


He walked among the crowds

on the Boulevard Sebastó,

thinking about things.

A red light stopped him.

He looked up:

                        over

the gray roofs, silver

among the brown birds,

a fish flew.

The light turned green.

As he crossed the street he wondered

what he’d been thinking.

- Octavio Paz (translated by Eliot Weinberger)

In my daydreams, I collect unwanted pianos and join in mental silence of sound. In my nightdreams,​ I sit in bathrooms, fall up stairs and live a silent film. In my nightmare, I found only barbies in the lockers.

I like to walk and laugh.  Join me?

"Chispa​s de la vida are those special moments in life, those certain somethings that make life really tasty. You never expect them, but they make life." - Gino Hollander

"He'd glide down the slope of their yard, under the clothesline,​ to the garage. Sometimes he forgot about the clothesline and almost killed himself, flying backward while the bike went on, unmanned, to crash against the garage door. "It's not the fault of the clothesline,"​ Stewart explained...​ "It's about me respecting it as an obstacle.""​

"To hold, you must first open your hand. Let go."

Pearl: I'm only human, man.
Leland: It's funny how people only say that after they do something bad. I mean, you never hear someone say, "I'm only human" after they rescue a kid from a burning building.

Dave: He melted...
Stoney: Dave, it wasn't meant to happen. Come on, I'll go buy you some Ho-Ho's.

Stoney: If you're edged 'cause I'm wheezin' all your grindage, just chill. 'Cause if I had the whole brady bunch thing happenin' at my pad, I'd go grind over there, so dont tax my gig so hard-core cruster.

Chunk: [Data comes flying into the house knocking over everyone and Chunk grabs the statue of Michelangelo​'s David] Hey! I bet you guys think I was going to drop it huh? But you wouldn't expect that from good ol' Chunk
[Places the statue on the edge of table and it falls off]
Brandon Walsh: You Idiot!
Mikey: Oh my god!
[runs over and picks up the statue]
Chunk: Look look! It's not broken. It's perfect! Ha ha!
Mikey Walsh: [sees that the statue's penis has broken off] Oh my GOD! That's my mom's most favorite piece!
[tries to put it back on]
Chunk: Oh my god.
Mouth: You wouldn't be here if it wasn't.
Mikey: Shut up Mouth!
Brandon Walsh: Shut up Mouth.

[Chunk glues the statue's penis on upside-down]​
Chunk: How's this?
Mikey: Oh, you idiot! You glued it on upside-down!​
Brandon Walsh: If God made it that way, you'd all be pissing in your faces!
Chunk: Looks fine to me.

"i asked a girl out and she looked up at me with a confused expression and said, "I like peeling cup cake wrappers"​ after that i just stood there and was like, "...I d-do too...so is that a yes or a no?""​ - a friend

HAAHAAhahaha​
