Jack Valentine: Do you know why I do what I do? I mean, there are more prestigeous assignments. Keeping track of nuclear arsenels - you'd think that be more critical to world security. But it's not. No, nine out of ten war victims today are killed with assault rifles and small arms - like yours. Those nuclear weapons sit in their silos. Your AK-47, that's the real weapon of mass destruction.
Yuri Orlov: I don't want people dead, Agent Valentine. I don't put a gun to anybody's head and make them shoot. But shooting is better for business. But, I prefer people to fire my guns and miss. Just as long as they are firing. Can I go now?

Ashes To Flesh
30-12-2010
Blessed and cursed with the Phoenix’s gift
Death and birth arrive in one instant so swift
The ending of a former life
The beginning of feeling alive
Rotating shackles determine place and time
To create two endlings, one malign
The skin is burnt to cinder
New flesh is born unhindered
I am not One Solemn Entity
- Going through a myriad of conversions -
But a whole entirety
Unbound by the strings of time
So one man’s breath is another’s death
A premonition that’s been often said
Incarnating eternally
Choosing 1 identity
Sometimes awakening in a foreign land
Once one drowned in water, now one in sand
Believing what the eyes can see:
“A nation in atrophy”
Axamenta

To Be Continued
29-12-2010
Don't you hate "to be continued" on TV. It's horrible when you sense the "to be continued" coming. You know, you're watching the show. You're into the story. There's like five minutes left and suddenly you realize, "Hey, they can't make it." Timmy's still stuck in the cave. There's no way they wrap this up in five minutes. I mean the whole reason you watch a TV show is because it ends. If I want a long boring story with no point to it, I have my life. A comedian can't do that, see. I can't go, "A man walks into a bar with a pig under his arm - Can you come back next week?"

Vincent: Look in the mirror. Paper towels, clean cab. Limo company some day. How much you got saved?
Max: That ain't any of your business.
Vincent: Someday? Someday my dream will come? One night you will wake up and discover it never happened. It's all turned around on you. It never will. Suddenly you are old. Didn't happen, and it never will, because you were never going to do it anyway. You'll push it into memory and then zone out in your barco lounger, being hypnotized by daytime TV for the rest of your life. Don't you talk to me about murder. All it ever took was a down payment on a Lincoln town car. That girl,you can't even call that girl. What the fuck are you still doing driving a cab?

Listen To The Waves
24-12-2010
AYREON WARNS THE PEOPLE THAT IF MAN DOES NOT MEND HIS WAYS,
MAN WILL CONTAMINATE THE SKIES, SO THERE WILL BE NO MORE AIR TO BREATHE,
HE WILL POISON THE SEAS,
SO THERE WILL BE NO MORE WATER TO DRINK AND HE WILL POLLUTE THE LAND,
SO THERE WILL BE NO MORE FOOD TO LIVE ON.
[AYREON:]
all the trees have fallen
the soil is scorched and dry
I can't respire
a storm of fire
is raging in the sky
where is all the wildlife
extinct from pole to pole
the hunt for skin
a deadly sin
took it's heavy toll
the seas are red, the skies are grim
the soil is filled with graves
the earth is dead, the sun is dim
listen to the waves
we befoul the air
and burn a hole in the sky
deadly rays
from outer space
cause our race to die
standing at the crossroads
a choice of life and death
we'll take more care
and clear the air
or take our final breath
Ayreon

Angle
23-12-2010
My Parents had two constant arguments while driving over either how fast my father was going or how much gas was left in the tank. My father had a standard defence for either one of these. It was always, "that's because your looking at it from an angle. If you were over here... it looks from where sitting, it looks like I'm doing 90 on empty. But that's because you're over there. If you were over here, you'd know I'm in the driveway with full tank"

Traffic School
17-12-2010
Many states now have traffic school when you have an infraction. I went to traffic school. I didn't mind it. I kinda felt bad for the instructor. This guy goes to traffic school every day, no matter how he drives. What is his incentive to not speed? He's going to traffic school, anyway. Why not get a race car, do 200 miles an hour down the street? Cop stops you, "Where you going?" "Traffic school." "Go ahead.And you better hurry. You really need it".
Maybe the punishment should be, instead of traffic school or traffic court, just... traffic. They sentence you to 100 hours of traffic.. They assign like five people to drive all around you at five miles an hour wherever you go. You're on your way to Vegas. There isn't a car in sight... "Come on! Move it!"

And He Shall Walk In Empty Spaces
10-12-2010
Of all rejected creatures unloved
Of all who defy the predestination
That divides mankind
Into the saved and damned
He was the first.
The lurking punishment
With blood he did reveal
Death
And trough the ages run
A river deep and red
The ever present heirs
For whom there is no rest.
And he shall walk in empty places
With a claim on destiny and self at hand
An endless journey towards the rising sun.
Towards the rising sun.
"Remember this, you others;
The fire and the fury,
The strength and defiance,
This you admire, this you desire,
I had to win them for myself".
In remembrance of the adversary
I conjure up the lion will:
Hungered Violent Solitary Godless.

Now we gotta make the best of it, improvise, adapt to the environment, Darwin, shit happens, I Ching, whatever man, we gotta roll with it.
Max: I Ching? What are you talking about, man? You threw a man out of a window.
Vincent: I didn't throw him. He *fell*
Max: Well what did he do to you?
Vincent: What?
Max: What did he do to *you*?
Vincent: Nothing. I only met him tonight.
Max: You just met him once and you killed him like that?

Journeyman

I was born in a deep forest
I wish I could live here all my life
I am made from stones and roots
My home, these woods and roads
All my life I loved this sound
Of the woods all around
Eagles flies where the winds blows free
Journey is my destiny
Free, free as a journey man
Free, heat in the moonlight
Free, free as a journey man
Free, heat in the moonlight
Ragged trouses, rucksack in my back
Narrow road behind me
I never look back
Long way is in the past
As in front of me
Hunger keeps me going
I don't care where it leads
Fire burns under my feet
Journey men pleasure and destiny
Sky is black, stars shows me the way
Moon whispered how to keep my faith
Free, free as a journey man
Free, heat in the moonlight

George: I didn't shave this morning. I don't feel like myself.
Jerry: You could be a fireman on a fire truck on the way to a fire. You bump into one of my relatives. 'I'm sorry Uncle Leo, there's a building full of people burning down. I really do have to be running.' He'll go: 'Go. Go ahead. Go to your fancy fire. If that's what you have to do.'
George: Look at this.

If we were meant to be erased, to disappear without a trace

The resources are running dry, we don't even fucking try
Can't you see we're running loose, when all we have to do is choose
Let's not make our children pay, millions die everyday
Poisoned by the food they eat, can't even get a chunk of meat
The water in the well ran dry, so all that we can do is die
Blowing up the world
Anarchy unfurled
Chaos, mayhem, greed
Killing our own breed
Brought to sudden death
As the Prophet said
Coming from behind
Killing our own kind
We toy with toxic pollution, we play with nuclear fusion
Take a look around, it's everywhere you see
We breathe it, we taste it, we're getting slowly wasted
There myust be something somebody can do
It vital, it's crucial, it's motherfucking fatal
We heave to stop or we will erase ourselves
The men with the power, sitting in their towers
We have to stop them, on no-one will survive
We have to realized our fate, we have to move, it's not too late
It takes the help of everyone, there is much working to be done
The human race must change its course, must saddle up another horse
If we don't do, the human race will disappear without a trace

Falling Away From Me
30-11-2010
Hey, I'm feeling tired
My time is gone today
You flirt with suicide
Sometimes that's OK
Do what others say
I'm here standing hollow
Falling away from me, falling away from me
Day, is here fading
That's when I'm insane
I flirt with suicide
Sometimes kills the pain
I can't always say
'It's gonna be better tomorrow'
Falling away from me, falling away from me.
(Chorus)
Beating me down, beating me, beating me down,
Down, into the ground, screaming so sound,
Beating me, beating me, down, down
Into the ground
(falling away from me)
It's spinning round and round
(falling away from me)
It's lost and can't be found
(falling away from me)
It's spinning round and round
(falling away from me)
Slow it down
Beating me down, beating me, beating me
Down, down, into the ground, screaming so sound,
Beating me, beating me, down, down
Into the ground
Twisting me, they won't go away
So I pray, go away
Life's falling away from me,
Its falling away from me,
Life's falling away from me, FUCK!
Beating me down, beating me, beating me
Down, down, into the ground, screaming so sound
Beating me, beating me, down, down
Into the ground
(falling away from me)
Beating me down
(falling away from me)
Beating me, beating me
(falling away from me)

The Helmet
29-11-2010
There are many things that I think you can point to as proof that the humans are not smart but my personal favorite would have to be that we had to invent the helmet. What happened was we were involved in a lot of activities that were cracking our heads. We chose not to avoid these activities, but instead to come up with some sort of device to help us continue enjoying our head-cracking lifestyles: The helmet. Even that didn't work, as not enough people were wearing them, so we had to come up with the helmet law, which is even stupider. The idea behind the helmet law is to preserve a brain whose judgment is so poor that it does not even try to stop the cracking of the head it's in.

All through history

Are as plain as the lines on his hands

Still sits upon his throne
Guarded by walls of stone
Through the years he surely has grieved
Look at what the world has done
We have poisoned everyone
Now he sees things he just can’t believe
What’s this I see
Through the eyes of the King
He looks for reason why
Pain fills his eyes
Run, we can’t hide from our destiny
Now we face judgment day
Have we doomed humanity
Is there time for us all to be saved

Maybe one day I'll be an honest man
Up till now I'm doing the best I can
Long roads, long days, of sunrise, to sunset
Of sunrise to sunset
Dream on brothers, while you can
Dream on sister, I hope you find the one
All of our lives, covered up quickly
by the tides of time
Spend your days full of emptiness
Spend your years full of loneliness
Wasting love, in a desperate caress
Rolling shadows of nights
Dream on brothers, while you can
Dream on sisters, I hope you find the one
All of our lives, covered up quickly
by the tides of time
Sands are flowing and the lines

In your eyes I see the hunger, and the
desperate cry that tears the night

Breath by breath you take
Still you're grasping for air
Miles and miles you move
Into the abyss you stare
(Into the abyss you stare)
Running from the plight
Mighty grips its hold
And that hunger's hanging on
But never return to the fold
With endurance
As the earth behind you burns
You can feel the heat
Keep your will and never turn
Come on, come on, follow closely
Come on, come on, end this slavery
Come on, come on, where you're going
Any place but here
And you pray for more hope
So this will run its course
Everyday you move
Handcuffs lose they their force
(Handcuffs lose they their force)
Abandon all you know
So destitution hides
United in despair
Still makes it harder to divide
With exhaustion
As the earth behind you melts
You can feel the heat
But your need for living fails
Come on, come on, follow closely
Come on, come on, end this slavery
Come on, come on, where you're going
Any place but here
Come on, come on, follow closely
Come on, come on,
Come on, come on, where you're going
Any place but here
A logical reason for being
Is quickly drifting away
People prove fiendishly greedy
Each time you try to believe
It's hard to be defiant
There's ways to kill the giant
Slaughtered by pins
Come on, come on, follow closely
Come on, come on, end this slavery
Come on, come on, where you're going
Any place but here
Come on, come on, follow closely

Vomit
17-11-2010
When you vomit on somebody, it is a social faux pas, from which there is really no recovery. At that point, there's really very little you can say to the person. There's no hallmark cards that cover this occasion. There's no vomit sympathy-card section of the store, you know. "You wear it well." You know, there's no words that really capture, you know... "Next time, lunch is on me." There's no, really, way to phrase the sentiment.

Farewell my fellow companions

to defend we have fought and won though with our life we paid)
Victory or Valhalla
Must again be the rallying cry
Ancient pride restored
Let the ancient banners fly high
Broken hilt in my hands
I saw my last break of day
Here and now we found our graves
Our bodies vultures prey
If our folk ever doubts
Or their souls have gone astray
Then lead the way to this place
Where our bones still lay
Stand strong with clenched fists
Withstand with all thy might
Stand strong with clenched fists
Until they are silenced right
Let the glory shine on thee
Lift thy ancient legacy... into light!
Lift thy legacy into light, so their spirits will
Shine on bright... shine bright!
Stand strong with clenched fists
Withstand with all thy might
Stand strong with clenched fists
Until they are silenced... right!!!
Victory or Valhalla must be
Again the rallying cry
Ancient pride restored
Let the ancient banners fly high
When the cause is noble and justice at thy side
To hold what is thine and the fight is right
Victory! Last man standing! Valhalla!
Last man standing!
Victory! Last man standing! Valhalla!

Shattered and mortally wounded
On the battlefield they lay
Farewell my fellow companions
Thy souls have gone away
(we shall not behold the green fields nor hear the birds sing in may
to defend we have fought and won though with our life we paid)
Victory or Valhalla
Must again be the rallying cry
Ancient pride restored
Let the ancient banners fly high
Broken hilt in my hands
I saw my last break of day
Here and now we found our graves
Our bodies vultures prey
If our folk ever doubts
Or their souls have gone astray
Then lead the way to this place
Where our bones still lay

Stand As King
12-11-2010
Feeling down like never before
Like a spirit been beaten in war
Wind in your face without luck on you back
Waiting like a shark to attack
Striking hard when no on expects it
We're rising higher
Like a statement the hammer will hit
In the name of Ironfire
Stand as king, let the legions unite
Armed and ready to fight
Stand as king, feel the power in light
Heavy metal tonight - stand as king
Glory will come for those who will wait
And believe that it's never to late
When times get dark and blind your way
Remember there's a price to pay
Striking hard when no on expects it
We're rising higher
Like a statement the hammer will hit
In the name of Ironfire
Stand as king, let the legions unite
Armed and ready to fight
Stand as king, feel the power in light
Heavy metal tonight
Your not alone everybody's got their own cross to spear
Stand up straight and walk the line
All for one we leave no one behind
Die for the king
For the crown and the ring
Striking hard when no on expects it
We're rising higher
Like a statement the hammer will hit
In the name of Ironfire
Stand as king, let the legions unite
Armed and ready to fight
Stand as king, feel the power in light
Heavy metal tonight - stand as king

Newman's Helmet
11-11-2010
[Monk's]
GEORGE: I never should have brought her up there. Should have known better. Should have seen it coming. I didn't see it coming.
JERRY: I think SHE saw it coming.
GEORGE: You know she was behind the idea. She was going to champion the show. That's what I was bring her up there to tell you. And she liked me.
JERRY: Look just because Kramer vomited on her doesn't mean the deal is dead.
GEORGE: What, are you crazy? It's a traumatic thing to be thrown up on.
JERRY: Vommiting is not a deal breaker. If Hitler had vommited on Chamberlain, Chamberlain still would have given him Chekoslovakia.
GEORGE: Chamberlain, you could hold his head in the toilet, he'd still give you half of Europe.
[Kramer enters with helmet]
JERRY: What happened to you?
KRAMER: Devola came after me.
JERRY: What? Devola? See I told you this guy is crazy. I can't believe this. What happened?
KRAMER: Can I have a coffee? ... What, you know I was walking home and I had to pick up my helmet from the shop, you know. I got a new strap. And I had it on, you know, and I was checking the strap out to make sure it fit. Then suddenly I feel this kick hit me on the side of the head. It knocks me down, I look up and it's Crazy Joe Devola. And he says, "That's what I think of your party."
JERRY: Boy,that is some kick.
KRAMER: Well, yeah, Newman's helmet, it saved my life. Look at that.
JERRY: Wow, Newman's helmet.
GEORGE: Holly.
KRAMER: I got bad news for you buddy. Devola says you're next.
JERRY: Me, why?
KRAMER: He doesn't like you.
JERRY: What does he want from me? I didn't do anything. See this is all Elaine's fault. She took off to Europe with his psychiatrist. He probably can't get his medication. Now I got some nut after me.
KRAMER: Pass the cream.
GEORGE: Wait a second. [smells it]. all right.

Johny Smith - It reminds me of a line from "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow" the last story I read to my class before...the accident. Ichabod Crane disappears... the line goes: "As he was a bachelor and in nobody's debt, nobody troubled their head about him anymore"
Sarah Bracknell - Is that what you feel?
Johny Smith - Is what I want... What I want.

Swaying in the wind
Under stars and moon
And sunrise gloom
Hanging on the tree
That gives you life
Oh sweet leaf
Has your time come?
Will your journey begin?
Afraid of falling and falling
With the wind
Away, away from your origin
Oh sweet leaf
How was it?
Hanging under stars
Feeling the wind
Knowing you're safe
Clinging on to me
Oh sweet leaf
Why did you leave?
Why didn't you stay?
How can I be your guardian angel
When you are away?
Oh dear father
Let me tell you
I loved to sway in the wind
Under the stars and moon
And sunrise gloom
Clinging on to you
Oh dear father
Can't you see?
I am not running away
I am just searching
For the real me
Oh dear mother
Why do we have to go?
Why don't we stay?
How can we be yours
When we are always away?

What Is THis Thing Called Love
03-11-2010
I was a hum-drum person
Leading a life apart
When love flew in through my window wide
And quickened my hum-drum heart
Love flew in thorugh my window
I was so happy then
But after love had stayed a little while
Love flew out again
What is this thing called love?
This funny thing called love?
Just who can solve its mystery?
Why should it make a fool of me?
I saw you there one wonderful day
You took my heart and threw my heart away
That's why I ask the Lawd up in Heaven above
What is this thing called love?
You gave me days of sunshine
You gave me nights of cheer
You made my life an enchanted dream
'Til somebody else came near
Somebody else came near you
I felt the winter's chill
And now I sit and wonder night and day
Why I love you still?

Blood, blood, bloody night
The poor stand up and fight
Marquises, kings and all this vermin
Hunted up in burning streets
Fight, fight, fight with rage
Their menials are locked up in a cage
The spirit of the rebel lives
Determined to break free
We stand up to break our chains
Rulers beware
We'll take your scepter and reign
On beggar's night
Riot terminates our pain
We'll catch you in your lair
You have to pay for your blame
On beggar's night
Sin, sin, whip and chain
That's the way they live and reign
Too many people died in their dungeon
Now pain's too hard if it's for their profit
Beast, beast, go away
No reason why you have to stay
The wealth you squeezed out of our lives
Will become your tomb
We stand up to break our chains
Rulers beware
We'll take your scepter and reign
On beggar's night
Riot terminates our pain
We'll catch you in your lair
You have to pay for your blame
On beggar's night

What Were You Thinking?
30-10-2010
JERRY: I don't even want to talk about it anymore. What were you thinking? What was going on in your mind? Artistic integrity? Where, where did you come up with that? You're not artistic and you have no integrity. You know you really need some help. A regular psychiatrist couldn't even help you. You need to go to like Vienna or something. You know what I mean? You need to get involved at the University level. Like where Freud studied and have all those people looking at you and checking up on you. That's the kind of help you need. Not the once a week for eighty bucks. No. You need a team. A team of psychiatrists working round the clock thinking about you, having conferences, observing you, like the way they did with the Elephant Man. That's what I'm talking about because that's the only way you're going to get better.
GEORGE: . . . I thought the woman was kind of cute.
JERRY: Hold it. I really want to be clear about this. Are you talking about the woman in the meeting? Is that the woman you're talking about?
GEORGE: Yeah, I thought I might give her a call. I, I don't meet that many women. I meet like three women a year. I mean, we've been introduced. She knows my name.
JERRY: IT'S COMPLETELY INAPPROPRIATE!
GEORGE: Why? Maybe she liked me. I, I mean she was looking right at me. You know, I think she was impressed. You know, we had good eye contact the whole meeting.
JERRY: Oh, I forgot to call Kramer.
GEORGE: Wait a minute let me call Susan.

Instalei-me na caminha
contigo a meu lado
Depois mostrei-te a cozinha,
fiz-te passar um mau bocado
Com medo de ficar sózinho
quis fazer de ti o meu capuchinho
Ainda não manejei nenhuma arma
que não desse ricochete
E a cicatriz sobrevive sempre
à mais perfeita ligadura
Mas quando quiseres
és bem vinda ao meu castelo
Que talvez por ser velho e enrugado,
não precisa de pintura
És bem vinda, amor,
se ainda te apetecer
tal aventura
Cheguei com falinhas mansas,
quis mostrar-te quem não era
Armei-me em herói de quimera,
todo brilhante
Mais tarde soltei a fera
Mostrei-te o meu corno penetrante
Com ele espetei contigo na rua
Mas antes fiz questão de te deixar nua
Ainda não manejei nenhuma arma
que não desse ricochete
E a cicatriz sobrevive sempre
à mais perfeita ligadura
Mas quando quiseres
és bem vinda ao meu castelo
Que talvez por ser velho e enrugado,
não precisa de pintura
És bem vinda, amor,
se ainda te apetecer
tal aventura

Man Will Always Be A Man
26-10-2010
Danilov - I've been such a fool , Vassili. Man will always be a man. We tried so hard to create a society that was equal, where there'd be nothing to envy your neighbor. But there's always something to envy. A smile, a friendship, something you don't have and want to appropriate. In this world, even a soviet one, there will always be rich and poor. Rich in gifts, poor in gifts. Rich in love, poor in love.
