Re: What quotes motivate you?

“The '60s are gone, dope will never be as cheap, sex never as free, and the rock and roll never as great.” Abbie Hoffman

 

 

For the damned there is always a stranger

There is always a beautiful stranger

 

 

And so goodbye, my lady of a day

Now let your step be long and now your laugh be gay

It's only right that everything went wrong

It couldn't happen any other way 

 

 

 

And so goodbye, my lady of a night

Now let your head be clear and now your smile bright

As hour by day by week by month by year

You dim but never wholly disappear

On the curving path away from my delight

 

Plus, of course, my sig

 

The slide from grace is really more like gliding
And I've found the trick is not to stop the sliding
But to find a graceful way of staying slid

And of course, one of my favorite songs.....

 

 C'est pas que je te demande

De faire que tu n'as jamais fait

C'est seulement qui'il fait trop tard

Et il fait trop noir pour trouver la porte 

 

Mais si tu dois partir, va-t'en

Mais si tu dois partir, va-t'en

Si non, tu dois rester la nuit

And for the non-French speakers:

 

Listen to me, baby,
There's something you must see.
I want to be with you, gal,
If you want to be with me.

But if you got to go,
It's all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.

It ain't that I'm questionin' you.
To take part in any quiz.
It's just that I ain't got no watch
An' you keep askin' me what time it is.

But if you got to go,
It's all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.

I am just a poor boy, baby,
Lookin' to connect.
But I certainly don't want you thinkin'
That I ain't got any respect.

But if you got to go,
It's all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.

You know I'd have nightmares
And a guilty conscience, too,
If I kept you from anything
That you really wanted to do.

But if you got to go,
It's all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night.

It ain't that I'm wantin'
Anything you never gave before.
It's just that I'll be sleepin' soon,
It'll be too dark for you to find the door.

But if you got to go,
It's all right.
But if you got to go, go now,
Or else you gotta stay all night. 

Bob Dylan
