kings of infinite space, chapter 3, page 22

" i could be bounded in a nutshell and count myself a king of infinite space "
- Shakespeare, Paul's screensaver, by James Hynes

- my take -
not much really ... just inspired on how hopeful Shakespeare was ...

larry's party, chapter 6, page 111

" you did love her. That's something you're going to want to remember. It'll make all this seem worthwhile in the long run, the fact that you really did love her in the beginning. "
- bob to larry, by Carol Shields

- my take -
when i was still in my "not-so-accepting" moments (read - bitter : ) ), time and again, i was saying that the relationship i had was wasted time ... 5 years of my life down the drain ... just like that ... but after some time, i realized that it was alright ... i gave my all to that relationship ... and the fact that i did made it all worthwhile ... it just didn't work ... as my friend tonie said - shit happens ... and it did happen ... but things are getting better and brighter now ... and i'm really thankful ...

- intro -

i love to read books ... i am a sucker for books ... i "gobble" one : ) when i ride the bus or the mrt going to work ... when i'm at the w.c. doing my business ... when i'm in bed waiting for sleep to come ... when i'm wating for my flight at the airport ... when i'm waiting for my turn at the doctor's office ... when i have something and nothing to do ... you know what i mean ...

and every once in a while, i come across statements from these books that really catch my attention ... lines that make me sit-up and say - "deep ... really deep" or "that is sooooo true!" or "nice one" and so on and so forth ...

this is my motivation for creating this new blog ... i want to share the many thoughts that i get from reading ...
