As promised, here is "Part 2 - A Collection of Quotable (?) Quotes". I may have failed to mention it before,
but some of the lines in my Part 1 Collection were lifted from my original poems which I had given specific
themes for each quotation. I have thoroughly enjoyed writing these quips and Parts 3 & 4 will be published
in July and August, respectively.
Each part will be allotted fifty quotations
so that there's more time to savour and enjoy each theme. I've also tried to make each quotation short for memory recall. Here are the new fifty Quotable (?) Quotes.![]()
1. Insight: a prevailing hiccup that refuses to stop with noise.
2. Yearning: it's a steady retrenchment of aimless flight
without which, the earnings fall short of the outcome.![]()
3. Conscience: a gnawing element that requires you and I to recant, when we can, without the guilt that hammers the mind.
4. Penance: it keeps returning to haunt and blight showmanship, especially when kneeling while going to church.
5. Feeling trapped: you make no amends to nasty chasms while whistling endlessly without being listened to.
6. Heaven: don't condemn yourself to something unforeseen, especially when no one's there to
greet you.
7. Helping someone: a kindly offer but rarely a blood compact.
8. Betrayal: the squeamishness is registered into disks without your knowledge of course.
9. Adventure: it's an interception more than a revelation of what you are.
10. Morale: it's a matter of pure embitterment especially when morals are questionable.
11. Confidence: it can be regained even more with a few con tricks but finding them is trickier.
12. Momentum: just don't utter nonsense in silence, otherwise you'd lose your balance.
13. Difficult times: they're harder to mask in front of phoney accomplices.
14. Blame: you're not supposed to delve deep into the disappearing abyss of self-infliction.
15. Essence: only if you know the difference between ember and smoke for it is that
aspect of life where things could go wrong.
16. Redemption: it can hit us like scary, planted gnomes, without the immediacy of forgiveness
notwithstanding.
17. Forgiveness: an element that means nothing to you and me and where empty words
don't sound as good as a smack across the face.
18. Truth: we're not so apart in judging people, just wait until judgement day.
19. Hatred: it seems to grow each time we breathe.
20. Life: just one aspect that events can't overreach without having to live to see it.
21. Gesture: it helps keep the conversation going--just make sure you don't point
that finger at my face.
22. Sympathy: I don't need the loss to toss it back at you.
23. Fate: it's a lonely length to the cause of heartache.
24. Humour: it's hidden in those thick elbows rather well, until you realise no one
actually finds it funny.
25. Innocence: it supposes understanding but not its fervent coming.
26. Survival: tomorrow, another new crook will come around and prey.
27. Hell: it's lukewarm when there's no one to welcome you to fire you up.
28.Constituents: they see fiction and truth while cowering behind rags and filth.
29. The Economy: secret fat payroll will greatly be reduced.
30. (Personal) Appearance: they insist on good grooming without the punch and substance.
31. Dirty Tricks: it may either swing or sway, depending on your stoic stance to dirt.
32. Misery: there's no protection from unwarranted strife.
33. Power: it's a lifetime gem of greed, and the occasional hit list to put people in line.
34. Generosity: a few lousy tips from corporate creeps remind us to be on guard all the time.
35. Virtue: it's virtually nil in people who profess to possess it.
36. Value: its true meaning would be badly-erased with the question, "How much?"
37. Winning: dimensions begin with the usual promises they undertake while forgetting the promises before they had won it.
38. Society: only if, only when, and only they will attest to what it is all about.
39. United Nations: they harness diplomatic ties to prolong their employment.
40. Baloney: disengage this skill and your own bounty increases.
41. Caution: goodwill rebounds in excess.
44. Cronyism: it formalises the dictum without the vacuum.
45. Pain: all things considered,one must endure without the nurture.
46. Childhood days: just the sort of stuff you could all foresee in a wandering glee.
48. Pretension: it's a partner in our bone marrow--just make sure no one notices it.
49. Saying Adios: godspeed my dear, don't ever unpack!
