Jack Sparrow, Pirates of the Caribbean, Whimsical Quotes

I’m dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly, it’s the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they’re going to do something incredibly stupid.

A Series of Unfortunate Events, Lemony Snicket, Whimsical Quotes

img_0460

Everyone, at some point in their lives, wakes up in the middle of the night with the feeling they are all alone in the world, and that nobody loves them, and that they will never have a decent night’s sleep again and will spend their lives wandering blearily around a loveless landscape, hoping desperately that their circumstances will improve, but suspecting, in their heart of hearts, that they will remain unloved forever. The best thing to do in these circumstances is to wake somebody else up, so that they can feel this way, too.

~ Lemony Snicket, A Series of Unfortunate Events ~

Alice In Wonderland, Lewis Carroll, Whimsical Quotes

giphy (1)

“But I don’t want to go among mad people”, Alice remarked.

“Oh, you can’t help that”, said the Cat. “We’re all mad here. I’m mad, you’re mad.”

“How do you know I’m mad?” said Alice.

“You must be.” said the Cat. “Or you wouldn’t have come here.”

~ Lewis Carroll, Alice In Wonderland ~

This is dedicated to my friend Jonathan at http://husbandandhusband.net who loves all things Alice.

Yikes! I turned 51 today, but I don’t feel like it. Okay, maybe physically I feel like I’ve passed the half century mark, but inside I still am definitely in touch with my inner child. In keeping with that I found this lovely quote and gifs to go with it:

Don’t get all weird about getting older! Our age is merely the number of years the world has been enjoying us!

~ Uknown ~
