Fireflies in the Garden

                          Fireflies in the Garden by Robert Frost
                                



Here come real stars to fill the upper skies,
And here on earth come emulating flies,
That though they never equal stars in size,
(And they were never really stars at heart)
Achieve at times a very star-like start.
Only, of course, they can't sustain the part

Rue's Song

                                                               Rue's Song                           
                                                                                   From the book "The Hunger Games"                                                      





Deep in the meadow, under the willow

A bed of grass, a soft green pillow

Lay down your head, and close your sleepy eyes

And when again they open, the sun will rise.

Here it's safe, here it's warm

Here the daisies guard you from every harm

Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true

Here is the place where I love you.

Deep in the meadow, hidden far away

Cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray

Forget your woes and let your troubles lay

And when again it's morning, they'll wash away.

Here it's safe, here it's warm

Here the daisies guard you from every harm

Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true

Here is the place where I love you.

hitchhikers guide to galaxy memorable lines

                                   Hitchhikers guide to galaxy memorable lines

  • "You live and learn. At any rate, you live."  

  • "Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.

  • "You know," said Arthur, "it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young." 
    "Why, what did she tell you?" 
    "I don't know, I didn't listen."

  • “Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.” 

  • “There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. 
    There is another theory which states that this has already happened.” 
  •  sometimes if you received an answer, the question might be taken away.
