WHAT IS YOUR BASKET.
                           --------------------

What ever label you put on your basket,
That the people will accept and call the basket,
If you label it a waste paper basket,
People will dump assorted rubbish in it
But if you call it a jolly good fruit basket,
People will cherish it and treat it with respect.
The world takes you at your own estimate.

                           Composed by Kenneth Faminu

Stefan Pillinger

I would like to think I love not the principle philosophy, that I could burn a million books and not bat an eyelid. However, as soon as the flame grew, I would realize the light I had missed.
In thought I put some portion of the world in jeopardy, but it is the world that jeopardizes my thought.

James (Jim) Dowd

"Rules are meant to provide guidance to the wise and to control the fools".

Ulrich Damm

Make your own life before you make a new one.

Ameet Bakhai

Though many heroes are found on a battlefield, many more will die peacefully in their beds of old age having never encountered the need to reveal their greatness.
Hope is what allows you to keep going even in the face of adversity and despair. With this to sustain you - your strength will be boundless.

Frank X. Foglia

Common sense is not so common.

Jeffrey David Lang

There will be times in life when impossibility is felt, but then there are dreams - and dreams allow us possibility.
Ultimate failure does not come in the loss of a great goal, but in the loss of will to strive for another.

Ariadna X

Nothingness is the only thing truely meaningful... because it is meant to be meaningless. Too bad nothingness does not exist.
I am too young for living, that's why I'm dead.
Being a woman is hard... it is being a goddess and nothing changes so easily, so fast.
I fear perfection, I don't have it... it is always a threat
If death kissed my lips...would you miss me?

Beauty hides evil and deceit holds hands with lust for no true beauty exists until the light of the soul is seen beneath the falsehood of the skin.
"Never ask if something can not be done, for impossibility is only a false limit set by those who are lack ambition for in essense, nothing is impossible. Anything can be achieved if one merely has the heart to
accomplish it. However, mankind often asks the wrong question when taking on something that has yet to be done. We should not ask if something can be done until we ask but one question...should it be done? Humanity's downfall has always been it's lack of foresight."
"Somewhere between reality and time there lies a land where all may visit, where discrimination, prejudice, death and sickness have no powers. Fairies fly through mighty forests, huge dragons perch atop mountain peaks that stretch for miles and the sun only sets when told to. Heroes are forged out
of the most unlikely souls, princesses are made out of the loneliest of ladies and one's face only adds to what is inside. Peace is what men fight for and war is overpowered by love. No one is ever too poor to travel there and all are welcome no matter their race, sex, religion or creed. However, no matter the power this realm may possess, it still depends on you to give it life. To find it, all you have to do is dream."

Neethan Raj

All tall trees must have strong roots to support it.
Let there be dreamers,
and let their dreams be.
For the world would be greater,
if Hell...it does not see.
He who roams the night
in the dark of his skin,
Shall shed blood as light
and lead from within.
Don't cower in your shell just because your pincer's
aren't as developed as the other craps. You still have
them to catch you your meal.

Dr. Jason Bostic

Our imagination always outpaces our technology. The gap between the two is the distance the creative spark must jump in order to ignite our forward momentum. {from his book: Taming the Beast - Choice and Control in the Electronic Jungle
