Hi, I'm Forrest.
Forrest Gump.

ʘᴥʘ ʘᴥʘ ʘᴥʘ   Welcome to my Amateur-file. Stay a while.

 

 

Oh... oh... hi... didn't notice you there.

 

What’re you doing on my page?  Being nosey, huh? Well, I suppose I’m obliged to tell you to have fun while you’re embracing your inner stalker . Between you and me, I like stalkers, they make me get a warm and fuzzy feeling in my spleen . I mean, who doesn’t like getting creepy, yet devoted, love letters and chloroform scented handkerchiefs? I certainly do!

So, send me some! My address is: P Sherman 42 Wallaby Way Sydney, Allpoetry.

About me… see, what had happened was…     Prepare for a boring story.
  My mommy met my daddy and they got their coins together to make a call to the stork. Well, the stork that carried me was a little dizzy. (>@.@< Dizzy bird!) He dropped me a few times along the way, mostly on meh head, ‘cause you know, there’s nuh much important stuff in that thing. Just a few random ideas scurrying around and running into each other, getting tangled up until they make nuh sense to anyone except their designer/mommy/God.

Actually, when I was a baby, I’m willing to bet my thoughts consisted of… “I are has to poop… whoops, nuh more!”, “The Great Milk Giver looks very scary. I wish she would get it out of meh face.”, “Why are they taking pictures of me in the bath tub?”, “That cat food sure looks good…”

Now, let’s skip down the yellow brick road a little further (The candy littering the ground is mine.  Touch it and learn what it feels like to lose a limb to a spork.) I’m sixteen years old as of April 28th, 2009! I’ve matured physically, but mentally… I’m still having some variation of those Baby-thoughts. Except I don’t eat cat food. Really. Honestly. I don’t like how you're questioning my honesty…

There’s really nothing that special about me except my ability to stay quiet for long periods of time in a group of my peers. I like to call that ‘shyness’ and ‘thereasonIhavenofriendsinreallife’. But other than that… my mind is a clone of a dozen or so other teenage minds bent on World Domination with the competence of Pinky and the failure of The Brain.       I'm just a bundle of giggles and odd smiles, but there's something more keeping it all together: a thread you'll never be able to touch because you'll break it and unravel my world.

And... that's about it. You'll have to delve deeper into my lair if you've a wish to find out more about me. Please take off your shoes and leave the rest of your clothes on.
                                                  

 

 

--------------------------------- You know me ---------------------------------
Here lies a collection of quotes I find funny/heart lifting/thought-provoking/interesting that I hope everyone likes .

----- Xenosaga I: The Will To Power -----

"Frailty, thy name is woman! No, that’s not right. You little realians weren’t even born from a woman’s womb. The human race, fearful in its weakness, built this world in the futile attempt to elude the abyss they call mortality. Culture… civilization… all delusions created by a powerless race… of little use, like a barren woman. But amidst all this, you continue to exist as an unfettered soul, free from the shackles of flesh and blood, a completely pure consciousness…an eternal spiral, undefiled by impurities… A fusion of fire, breath, and spirit. What can we call you, but angels? New, unadulterated psyches, but what you lack is reality, and that is what I shall provide you with."

 

----- The Last Vampire 1-5 -----
"Even I, a blood-thirsty harlot if ever there was one, have never witnessed a glorious war."

"Hate and fear and love are all in the heart. I felt that when he played his flute. I don't just hate you. I didn't just fear you."

"History is something than can only be lived, it cannot be read about. Look at me, I am history."

"Then the line is drawn. The sea meets the shore. The infinite tells the finite what is supposed to be."

"I am the inspiration of nightmares. I am the primeval fear, something dead come to life, or better yet -- and more accurate-- something that refuses to die."

“I know it is useless to hate God. It is like screaming at the night sky. The stars have no ears, and besides, they are too far away to hear.”

“I came to believe the entire world was a dream to her. Yet paradoxically it could still cause her intense pain.”

“Yet I have to wonder if I have lost the song because I have become the song. If I have lost my Lord because I do indeed desire to be what I will become. A lover who hates, a saint who sins and an Angel who kills.”

“I have given him the kingdom of eternal night, and all he wants to do is take a walk under the sun.”


----- Whisper of Death -----
“--Goods news or bad news?
--The good news.
--It’s yours.
--What’s mine.
--The bad news.
--What?
--The baby.”

“Suddenly I was afraid. Afraid of nothing, that most awful of fears. Especially when nothing is all there is.”


----- The Season of Passage -----
“You will love me, for here is your jugular and here is your carotid.”


----- Weekend -----
“She’s worse than the worst jerk. If you said anything bad about her, everyone would jump on you. It made me sick.”

“--I’ve been drinking all night and I wouldn’t hesitate to climb on top of the wheel.
--You mean behind the wheel?
--Wouldn’t hesitate!”


----- The Starlight Crystal -----
"We were thirsty fish swimming in an ocean, searching for a drink. Where is the ocean? We would say to ourselves. We had heard so much about it. We even built temples to people whom we believed had once seen the ocean. We turned them into prophets, then we fought amongst ourselves over which prophet was right and which was wrong. You are that fish. You exist in an ocean of joy and yet your sorrow reaches even to us. Tell us, why are you so sad?"

"Along the path there is free will. Once the goal is reached the understanding dawns that everything was destined. But a man or a woman cannot pretend to be at the goal while still on the path. At this time you must act as if you have free will.
But in reality it does not exist?
In our reality it does not exist. In your reality is does exist. Still, in your reality there is destiny."

"Religion is man-made. It is not eternal. It is not real."


----- The Midnight Club -----
“I do believe that love survives. That the love we feel in our lives doesn’t vanish. That God keeps track of it, saves it so that it is always there, more and more love in the universe.”

“His words were like those of a whispered poem: intoxicating to the ears, so soft and subtle, but difficult to comprehend, at least with the mind.”

“That’s all she wanted out of her life: to matter to someone more than anything else.”

“The enchantress smiled slyly because she knew that the seeds of the moment were capable of becoming the fruits of tomorrow.”

----- Robert Fulghum -----
“I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge -- myth is more potent than history -- dreams are more powerful than facts -- hope always triumphs over experience -- laughter is the cure for grief -- love is stronger than death.”

“Don’t worry that children never listen to you; worry that they are always watching you.”

“It will be a great day when our schools have all the money they need, and our air force has to have a bake-sale to buy a bomber.”


----- Richard Peck -----
"I read because one life isn't enough, and in the page of a book I can be anybody;
I read because the words that build the story become mine, to build my life;
I read not for happy endings but for new beginnings; I'm just beginning myself, and I wouldn't mind a map;
I read because I have friends who don't, and young though they are, they're beginning to run out of material;
I read because every journey begins at the library, and it's time for me to start packing;
I read because one of these days I'm going to get out of this town, and I'm going to go everywhere and meet everybody, and I want to be ready."


----- Winnie the Pooh -----
"You're stronger than you seem. You're braver than you believe. You're Smarter than you think."

"As long as we're apart together, we'll certainly be fine."

"Promise me you'll never forget me because if I thought you would I'd never leave."

"Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day."

"Don't underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering."

" "Well," said Pooh, "what I like best -- " and then he
had to stop and think. Because although Eating
Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a
moment just before you began to eat it which was
better than when you were, but he didn't know
what it was called."


----- The Anthem -----
"What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and the impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?”

"And here, over the portals of my fort, I shall cut in stone the word which is to be my beacon and my banner. The word which will not die, should we all perish in battle. The word which can never die on this earth, for it is the heart of it and the meaning and the glory.
The sacred word:
EGO."


----- Finding Nemo -----
"No. No, you can't... STOP. Please don't go away. Please? No one's ever stuck with me for so long before. And if you leave... if you leave... I just, I remember things better with you. I do, look. P. Sherman, forty-two... forty-two... I remember it, I do. It's there, I know it is, because when I look at you, I can feel it. And-and I look at you, and I... and I'm home. Please... I don't want that to go away. I don't want to forget."

 

----- The Book Thief -----
"They say that war is death's best friend, but I must offer you a different point of view on that one. To me, war is like the new boss who expects the impossible. He stands over your shoulder repeating one thing, incessantly: "Get it done, get it done." So you work harder. You get the job done. The boss, however, does not thank you. He asks for more."

“A definition not found in the dictionary: Not leaving- an act of trust and love, often deciphered by children.”

“I most definitely can be cheerful. I can be amiable. Agreeable. Affable. And that’s only the A’s. Just don’t ask me to be nice. Nice has nothing to do with me.”

“When Death captures me, he will feel my fist on his face.”

“Imagine smiling after a slap in the face. Then think of doing it twenty-four hours a day.”

“Somewhere, far down, there was an itch in his heart, but he made a point not to scratch it. He was afraid of what might come leaking out.”


----- Head Games -----
“There’s different kinds of intelligence. There’s school, that’s smart. Then there’s creativity, and that’s… brightness. Being bright. I’m that. And then there’s intelligent, which is kind of like the two combined. I’m only somewhat intelligent. Very few people are all three. You’re all three.”

“And I know absolutely that if I say anything other than “Right,” this man will not be in control anymore, and that is not something I want to see.”

“Like he had taken everything that was real and decided that because it didn’t mean anything to him, it couldn’t mean anything to anyone else.”


----- Lucas -----
“What was I? What was I doing? Where was I going? Was I innocent? Guilty? Foolish? Gullible? Was I true to myself…?”

“It was that unmasked look of sadness you rarely see, the look of someone who thinks they’re alone so they don’t have to hide it anymore.”

All of those lists are what consume my day. Reading, playing video games, watching movies. And of course, writing and being on Allpoetry. Oh, and daydreaming. I’m a compulsive daydreamer.     Me,  me, me.  
    Dizzy yet?

 

 

 

Now, what better way to begin the end of a page than a few quotes? I can think of none!

 

----- Dead Poet's Society -----
“They're not that different from you, are they? Same haircuts. Full of hormones, just like you. Invincible, just like you feel. The world is their oyster. They believe they're destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentlemen, these boys are now fertilizing daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it? - - Carpe - - hear it? - - Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary.”

“We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, "O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless... of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?" Answer. That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play *goes on* and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?”


Winnie the Pooh says --
“Poetry and Hums aren't things which you get, they're things which get you. And all you can do is go where they can find you.”


----- Sati -----

“If she wasn’t God, she was everything God should be.”

 

"There is a difference between a question and a wonder. I would prefer to answer only questions that will be useful to you. A child looks up at the starry sky at night and wonders. He is filled with the joy of the mystery of creation. Why should I explain everything to you and take away that joy? I will not. The purpose of my words is to create silence, to create joy. I am not here to stuff your head full of knowledge. A child starts out innocent. You ask him something and he says, "I don't know." Then that child grows up and thinks he knows everything. I'll teach you something, both of you. I'll teach you to say, "I don't know," and be glad. That is true knowledge."

“Enjoy your life. No curse hangs over you, nor did it ever. No devil chases after your soul. Sing and dance and be merry.”

“I want to be serious, but it’s hard. I’m the little kid who plays outside all day and has all the fun in the world, but only because he knows his mother is at home waiting for him. That’s what it’s like to be still inside. Mother is at home. Everything will eventually work out. Everything is inevitable. She is ALWAYS at home. My thoughts do not support my inner silence; it is just there. It doesn’t even go away when I sleep. I doubt it will when I die.”


----- A Beautiful Mind -----
"Perhaps it is good to have a beautiful mind, but an even greater gift is to discover a beautiful heart."

"Find a truly original idea. It is the only way I will ever distinguish myself. It is the only way I will ever matter."

"I've gotten used to ignoring them and I think, as a result, they've kind of given up on me. I think that's what it's like with all our dreams and our nightmares, Martin, we've got to keep feeding them for them to stay alive."

"I still see things that are not here. I just choose not to acknowledge them. Like a diet of the mind, I just choose not to indulge certain appetites; like my appetite for patterns; perhaps my appetite to imagine and to dream. "

"My quest has taken me through the physical, the metaphysical, the delusional and back..."


----- St. Elmo’s Fire -----
"Jules, y'know, honey... this isn't real. You know what it is? It's St. Elmo's Fire. Electric flashes of light that appear in dark skies out of nowhere. Sailors would guide entire journeys by it, but the joke was on them... there was no fire. There wasn't even a St. Elmo. They made it up. They made it up because they thought they needed it to keep them going when times got tough, just like you're making up all of this. We're all going through this. It's our time at the edge."

"Love, love, you know what love is? Love is an illusion created by lawyer types like yourself to perpetuate another illusion called marriage to create the reality of divorce and then the illusionary need for divorce lawyers."


----- The Last Vampire -----
"I don't want to die!"
"Then you should have never been born."

 

 

 

Now, something to scare you into never coming back to my page:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   
    - - - - - - - - -
I Love you, all.
Bye, bye.
 
          Kiss it!
