I think I should start being somewhat philosophical without wearing a boring overcoat...

One of my favorite things to collect is quotes. I know weird, eccentric, and clearly far from being tangable but they serve as great inspiration and are ever-so thought-provoking. So I have decided to do a quote of the day starting...well today! So here it is the first one (but let it not have the bragging rights of being first because quotes will be posted in no order of importance or favoritism).

"This morning a bird woke me up. It was a lark, or a peacock; something like that. So I said hello. And it vanished, flew away, the very moment I said hello! It was quite mysterious. So do you know what I did? I went to my mirror and brushed my hair two hundred times, without stopping. And as i was brushing it, my hair turned mauve. No, honestly! Mauve! Then red. then some sort of a deep blue when the sun hit it.... I'm sixteen years old, and every day something happens to me. i don't know what to make of it. When i get up in the morning and get dressed, I can tell...something's different. I like to touch my eyelids, because they're never quite the same. oh, oh, oh! I hug myself till my arms turn blue, then I close my eyes and cry and cry till the tears come down and I can taste them. I love to taste my tears. I am special. I am special! Please god, please, don't let me be normal! " - Luisa's Monologue from The Fantastiks
