Arthur Koestler: “This Had Always Brought Him Considerable Applause”

Photographer Unknown, (The Wrestler from Wyoming), Computer Graphics, Sport Film Gifs

“While serving one of his countless sentences of imprisonment, he was given ex-wrestler Paul as cell companion. Paul was at that time a dock worker; he was in jail for having, during a strike riot, remembered his professional past and applied the grip known as a double Nelson to a policeman. This grip consisted in passing one’s arms through the opponent’s arm­pits from behind, locking one’s hands behind his neck,
and pressing his head down until the neck vertebra began to crack. In the ring this had always brought him considerable applause, but he had learned to his regret that in the class struggle the double Nelson was not done.”
― Arthur Koestler, Darkness at Noon

Rainer Maria Rilke: “You Lift Slowly One Black Tree”

Artist Unknown, (The Dramatic Entrance), Computer Graphics, Gay Film Gifs

“Whoever you are: in the evening step out
of your room, where you know everything;
yours is the last house before the far-off:
whoever you are.
With your eyes, which in their weariness
barely free themselves from the worn-out threshold,
you lift very slowly one black tree
and place it against the sky: slender, alone.
And you have made the world. And it is huge
and like a word which grows ripe in silence.
And as your will seizes on its meaning,
tenderly your eyes let it go…”

― Rainer Maria Rilke, The Book of Images

 

The Kiss

Photographers Unknown, (The Kiss), Computer Graphics, Gay Film Gifs

One kiss is all it takes
Fallin’ in love with me
Possibilities
I look like all you need
Let me take the night, I love real easy
And I know that you’ll still wanna see me
On the Sunday morning, music real loud
Let me love you while the moon is still out
Something in you, lit up heaven in me
The feeling won’t let me sleep
‘Cause I’m lost in the way you move, the way you feel
One kiss is all it takes
Fallin’ in love with me
Possibilities
I look like all you need

Cooling Down

 

Artist Unknown, (Cooling Down), Computer Graphics, Gay Film Gifs

“Full fathom five thy father lies;
Of his bones are coral made;
Those are pearls that were his eyes:
Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange.
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell: Ding-dong
Hark! now I hear them,—Ding-dong, bell.”

― William Shakespeare, The Tempest

 

Jon Krakauer: “Into the Wild”

Security Guards Numbers One Through Six

“make a radical change in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do things which you may previously never have thought of doing, or been too hesitant to attempt. So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservation, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

–Jon Krakauer, Into the Wild
