    Sons of Anarch Series Finale

    This is a bit from Hamlet that blew me away last night:

    “Doubt thou the stars are fire;
    ?Doubt that the sun doth move;
    ?Doubt truth to be a liar;?
    But never doubt I love.”

    Definitely one of the best Hamlet quotes IMO. :smt023

    These are not really poems, but still nice.

    “I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in life. And I am horribly limited.”
    ? Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

    “Yes, I was infatuated with you: I am still. No one has ever heightened such a keen capacity of physical sensation in me. I cut you out because I couldn’t stand being a passing fancy. Before I give my body, I must give my thoughts, my mind, my dreams. And you weren’t having any of those.”
    — Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath
