#turn

In no direction that we turn do we find ease or comfort. If we are honest and if we have the will to win we find only danger, hard work and iron resolution. ↗

I ceased to be human the moment my Sire’s blood passed my lips. If what you seek is a testosterone-fueled display akin to what a mortal man might give when presented with your naked form…then you’re in the wrong laboratory. However, if it’s my hands on your body that you wish, simply say so. If it’s my lips on your skin that you crave, speak the words. The subtleties of courting and seduction may not serve me any longer, but rest assured, I’m more than capable of sating the desire burning behind your eyes. ↗

There's a great body of people who flower at night, who feel night is their time. Night is the time people truly become individuals, because all the familiar things are dark and done, all the restrictions on freedom are removed. Many artists work at night - it is particularly conducive to creative work. Many of us attuned to night are not artists but are embattled against the official, organized, righteous day people who are completely bound by their switchboards and their red tape. ↗

I have seen him set fire to his wigwam and smooth over the graves of his fathers... clap his hand in silence over his mouth, and take the last look over his fair hunting ground, and turn his face in sadness to the setting sun. ↗

The perfect vehicle to take to the moon would be a two-door Saturn with a sunroof. ↗

You know I was curious - I was interested in all kinds of mystery or deeper meanings in the paintings because I myself have not analyzed why they have turned out like this or like that. ↗

Every test, every trial, every heartache that's been significant, I can turn it over and see how God has turned it into good no matter what. ↗

There are, in the King case in particular, e names of confidential informants, persons to whom we promised confidentiality in return for their testimony. We have put their testimony in the public domain, but feel that their names should continue to be anonymous. ↗
