Gone - Quotes
When your worst fears are fulfilled when everything you expect is gone, something is still driving us to fix the past or get into the future. When the only thing we should pay attention to is the present. And to the many possibilities of the present.
When my hair`s all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don`t remember my name
When my hands don`t play the strings the same way
I know you will still love me the same...
My generation is on the way out, and each death I have felt as an abruption, a tearing away of part of myself. There will be no one like us when we are gone, but then there is no one like anyone else, ever. When people die, they cannot be replaced. They leave holes that cannot be filled, for it is the fate - the genetic and neural fate - of every human being to be a unique individual, to find his own path, to live his own life, to die his own death.

Stop and reflect on the year that has gone by. To remember both our triumphs and our missteps. Our promises made and broken. The times we opened ourselves up to great adventures or closed ourself down for fear of getting hurt. Because that`s What New Year`s is all about. Getting another chance. A chance to forgive. To do better, to do more, to give more, to love more. And to stop worrying about "what if" and start embracing what will be. So when that ball drops at midnight and it will drop let`s remember to be nice to each other. Kind to each other. And not just tonight, but all year long.

I know better
`Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew.

It really didn`t make any difference what happened to the body after the soul was gone; it was dross.
There are moments when I wish I could roll back the clock and take all the sadness away, but I have the feeling that if I did, the joy would be gone as well. So I take the memories as they come, accepting them all, letting them guide me whenever I can.
You may think your only choice is to swallow your anger or throw it at someone`s face. But there`s a third option, you can just let it go. And only when you do that is it really gone and you can move forward.
If you live to be eighty, you’ll have slept thirty years away, gone to school and sat with homework for nine, and worked for almost fourteen. Since you’ve already spent more than six years being little kids and playing, and you’re later going to be spending at least twelve cleaning house, cooking food, and looking after your own kids, it means you’ve got nine years at most to live.
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow -
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.
It`s like screaming, but no one can hear. You almost feel ashamed, that someone can be that important that without them you feel like nothing. No one will ever understand how much it hurts.
