We don't often look into these unpleasant details of our great struggle. We all prefer to think that every man who wore the blue or gray was a Philip Sidney at heart. ↗

أمقت تلك المسافات التي تفصلني عنك ، أتذمر من تلك المواقيت التي تسرقني منك .. أسخط على أعين تتأملك / على أنامل تلمسك على أنفاسك وهي تستنشقك ! على نبضاتك وهي تستشعرك ، على ثيابك وهي تعانقك ↗

I'm sure you've heard people talk about their Heart's Desire—well that's a load of rot. Hearts are idiots. They're big and squishy and full of daft dreams. They flounce off to write poetry and moon at folk who aren't worth the mooning. Bones are the ones that have to make the journey, fight the monster, kneel before whomever is big on kneeling these days. Bones do the work for the heart's grand plans. Bones know what you need. Hearts only know want. ↗

To conceal anything from those to whom I am attached, is not in my nature. I can never close my lips where I have opened my heart. ↗

There are strings in the human heart that had better not be vibrated. ↗

Machine men, with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines, you are not cattle, you are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don’t hate: only the unloved hate, the unloved and the unnatural. Soldiers, don’t fight for slavery, fight for liberty! You the people have the power, the power to create machines, the power to create happiness! You the people have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure! Then, in the name of democracy, let us use that power. Let us all unite! Let us fight for a new world, a decent world . . . ↗

— Charles Chaplin

I want to burn the world because Alan is gone," he said. "I want to destroy everything I see. But you mean something to me. I will not destroy the world, because it has you in it. ↗
