Will's Favorite Quotes

For those of you unfamiliar with the will syndrome, it is also called xidoraven, [xido], squidgemeister, as well as various other vulgar and archaic terms. Do not be fooled by its mild presence or onset; it is a deadly contagion. Do not play with fire that has no heat, you will have no idea from which direction its energies shall burn you.

Favorite Roleplay Quotes:

'BadCat squints at the 'entity', and with a soft aside to Kim, "Shhh. It's a turnip."

"A turnip?" Kim asks and looks more closely at the entity "It doesn't LOOK like a turnip."

"Well, obviously it doesn't look like a turnip: it's wearing a disguise," BadCat laughs at Kim's naivety.

Elliomn quirks an eyebrow at the dark figure.
"A disguised turnip? Hmmm.... I'm not sure...." he muses.

"I'm no turnip," the voice speaks, and with the raising of one of his hands, the figure sets fire to the ground in front of the demon hordes behind them.'





The fallen angel looks into the eyes of the shade-form of Amina Fleshrender's deceased soul, staring with insane curiosity. She asks, "This contract that you signed... What did it say.... Exactly?!"

"Well," the tiny, cowering halfling girl answered, holding herself in the darkness of the shadow realm.
"It said that if I do not find the Ang of Marash within sixty days, that the Serpentfolk would take my soul."
She appears frightened as Ati's face contorts.

"That's no good," says the fallen angel. "They can't have it; It's mine!!"

(0)  The Surrounding Void:
the Spaces Between the Universe that are the Blackness of the heaviest antimatter;
the Dark Matter of the Cosmos, and the Chalice of the Macrocosm.

(1)  There is a white flame in the dark Vast, a single spark of Divinity hiding in the Folds.
It enCircles a great Power, a Divine Force.

(2)  What is and what is not?
The Spark manifests as another separate subject from the Void, a single shard of light orbiting the One True Light, the Pillar of All at the center of the Vast, the trunk of the Tree of Life.

(3)  Here, now, is a thought; a concept.
The framework of life and structure binds together to form the model upon which I - the idea, the thought, the concept, the intellect in use - will be created.

(4)  I am real. I have become manifest. I have a body, a real thing; physical, and stable.
I cannot move, for there is no motion to this level of manifestation. I am, but I am not doing. I simply Am, to simply Love.

(5)  I can do anything. I am action.
I will, I can, I do, I run, I climb, I swim, I play; I am dynamic. There is a need to do more. I can go there some day.

(6)  I AM.
OM (Aum).
In the Center, I am the Sun.
I can be Greatness. I find my Self here. I am real. I know things because I am here. I am alive. I will live and I will die. But I Am.

(7)  Ascending to great heights, I have Fallen. I saw the Divine, spoke with Gods and Goddesses, and I am awash in my innermost emotions.
I say, "When the breath of life touches the furthermost reaches of the soul, will I be there too?"
I can see into the future now, for the soul is the Chalice of the Self. Divine glory, Divine Pain.
Eternal pleasure, immortal sadness, internal joy, external debauchery; a temptation of passionate spirit.

(8)  Thoughts preclude everything. Rationalization is the key.
This is there; that is here; this is always; and that cannot be.
I must react swiftly to what has Fallen, since their must be an equal polar reaction for every action. I am that law. I will enforce. I will guard. I may shield you, but it is for your own good. This I promise.

(9)  In the past, when I was in places and times of memory, I was most certainly there. I saw those things, I said those words, I heard yours too. We can never take them back. This is karma. We are living it, because it always has been so. Free will or Destiny? Surely both!
Crystallize, make pure, make known, make and create. What once was has always been, it is now, and it shall be forever. Time, nostalgia, and clamour. Ring the bell of the past, and you will see the present and the potential future as well.
Many of us are here.

(10)  This is the Kingdom. This is the World. This is the Eden of Creation. This is everything.
Feel the reality of existence all around you.

(11)  We are all here together. Let's work together. Community first, because it takes a village to raise the Children of the World. Humanitarianism means that all people matter.

(12)  Dream the dream, and walk Path of the Rainbow Bridge to the Crystalline Tower, the Shard of the Crystal of Atlantis, the center of the Earth's spiritual energies.
It is a link to the Center, the shards of the first stars of Creation: now simply ice, ash and stardust super-condensed into the Core Gemstone of Truth. This Crystalline Tower(s) exist in the mists of Eternity, simply a walk away. Take the Path of the Rainbow Bridge to get here, for there is simply no other way inside.

(22)  The Macrocosm Speaks: "Everything is here now. Everything is forever, eternal in the Eye of the Divine, the Akashic Book of Memories, a Tome of Eternity. In time, all things will come to pass, but for now, we must dance, drink, celebrate one another, love, smoke, sing praise, and most importantly TEACH, for only in Truth will the Story of Destiny be fully told. For now, simply celebrate and Speak the Words of God in every movement of your Sacred Lips."




The Dragon is the representative of Karma in this Universe. He is the result of all the depts that his kind have cultivated in the Old universe. The Serpent suffers the Purgatory between the might of the newborn Humans trought the submission to their patterns.

Observe the constelation called Draco. The Dragon is being completely forced and beaten under the giant's (Herakles) foot, but he himself presents enough Power to reverse the fates and put the giant to subjugation. This does not happen for one simple cause: The Dragon's tail is bondaged in his Old mistakes. He is then forced by fate to submit.

The sacrifice of Ego distilates the Gold of Soul's Virtue. Such is the teaching of the Serpent of Wisdom: Sacrifice. The Serpent, from Hell and trought the Purgatory, ascends to Heaven, it's imposed weakness (represented by the Draco's bondages) being it's oppositor and it's arrogance being the calling of such karmic state.

"Those who choose to ascend trought the Spheres of Wisdom, be aware of the bonds that must be broken by Sacrifice and devotion. The Universe is the home for those who welcome It in their homes."

Below Draco and Herakles we behold Ophiocus (Ophiocus and Serpens), Wisdom itself.
Between Scorpio (the reptilian archetype) and Saggitarius (the human archetype), we can find this constellation... Here, Serpens accept submission to the New Universe (the human Ophiocus) and ascends the Tree of Life, helped by the mighty arms of Ophiocus. Ophiocus, allied with Serpens, brings the Knowledge and Wisdom of the Old Universe to the newborn humans. Such constellation ultimately represents the marriage between the reptilian and human, after the fierce battle between the same patterns (Draco and Heracles). Refer to the Arcane VI, The Lovers.

This is the Universe where Angels are born from the Serpent's Egg and here they manifestate the Creation, thus descending the Spheres, from the Celestial Gardens of Eden to the dephts of the Underworld.

The Serpent is the Ancient, coming from below and going to above.
10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 - It sublimates and ascends.

The Angel is the Newborn, coming from above and going to below.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 - It manifestates and descends.

"As above, so below". Again, refer to VI

The revolution of the Old to the New, the motives of the submission of the Dragon to the Human: Arcane XX, The Aeon.

Religious/Spiritual quotes:

"I am not this."
"I am He."
Give up such distinctions.

Know that everything is the Self.
Rid yourself of all purpose.

And be happy.

-Ashtavakra Gita 15:15


All formations are transient; all formations are subject to suffering; all things are without a self.

Therefore, whatever there be of form, of feeling, perception, mental formations, or consciousness, whether past, present, or future, one's own or external, gross or subtle, lofty or low, far or near, one should understand according to reality and true wisdom: 'This does not belong to me; this am I not; this is not my Self.'

-Anguttara Nikaya and Samyutta Nikaya

You looked into my eyes that were not there, and stared into the void. The great abyss swallowed you whole, and you adored its grip upon your soul. When you came up for air, you had a smile on your face, and a love in your heart, for life, and love. Atmosphere symbiosis, and a tidal wave of orange, rushing in a circle. Tongue to tongue, and flesh to flesh. The bond formed above our heads, and circled 'round, ready to devour our souls, as we lapped up the drink of the gods, into our parched mouths. Ambrosia never tasted so sweet as now. *loves*
I miss you, my love. I hope that you are alive, well, and in good company with real people who benefit you without harming you. I have never met someone I have ever loved more. Come back to me one day. I will wait on the edge of forever seeking the light of your burning soul-fire.

Only in the minds of lunatics can the seeds of prophecy be born.

Stay away from the crazy gemini kid.....he's weird.

Are gay cooties contagious?

Is the world real, or is it just my imagination?

We are ALL Sparkle Monkies from the planet Earth!!!!

Astrology doesn't really work.....we're all just very stereotypical...

My moon in Virgo wants nothing to do with your silly Pisces flipping about, with the crazy bubbles, and the swimming, and the WOO WOO WOOOOOO, all over the fricking place.

I want to be me when I grow up.

Thank GOD and JESUS and all the fifty SAINTS, MOHAMMED and JEHOVAH and SHIVA and the MIDGET she dances on in her swirly RING of FIRE, ANGELS, KITTENS, and the HANDS that SCRATCH them!!!

The sun shall no longer hunger for the moon, in fear of missing it dreadfully upon its bed of rest; For that is a tale of patience and love.
-me
YAY I COULD LIVE ON A PURPLE AND GREEN CLOUD FOREVER !!!!
-you

The wind cried out in pain as the frigid cold of the north swept down to cause it to sleep; for that is the coming of time to slow you down; for even the skies and trees needs rest.

In the night sky, it is the stars that cannot be seen when the sun does burn them from their places, and when the night comes once more, they return again from the ashes, to guide the humble and weary to their bed of rest; For that is a tale of eternity.

I am seeking the stars. Venus and Mars have both touched me with their wisdom, and the sun has burned away my apathy. The moon lights my path to revelation, the stars are my comrades, setting forth on an eternal quest of silent, legendary reverie.

If life is a waste of time, and time is a waste of life, then let's all get wasted and have the time of our lives.

If an individual's needs and subconscious instincts are oppressed long enough, a conflict will arise between the conscious and the subconscious – and a split occurs. This will, in many cases, give rise to an array of disturbances and neurosis, which are often reflected through self-destructive and abnormal behaviour. This maxim is equally applicable for an entire people, a folk. When the peoples' soul – the Folk soul – is being oppressed and enslaved by alien values and compulsory adherence to an unnatural pattern of life, it will inevitably yield inner degradation and moral dissolution. For thousands of years, our people have been subjected to an alien religion that is as misanthropic and infertile as the salt deserts of the Middle East from which it originated. The dogma of the oppressor religion is in diametric opposition to our own instinctive Nordic human nature. Through our submission to this spiritual decay, we thereby oppress our own folkish identity. We are today expected to blindly resign ourselves the Western World's present moral gauge of what is “right” and “natural”, and many of us do. The consequences of this are catastrophic. Because our outward, superficial moral compass is totally at odds with our intrinsic values as a people, a mechanism deep inside of us knows that something is utterly wrong; and it manifests itself in many different forms of decadent, destructive and unnatural folkish “neurosis”. The people of today's western world are desperately seeking, either consciously or un-consciously, to find what is right and correct. Some are attracted by alien beliefs, or any of the Christian disguised twins, while others fall into the trap of nihilism and materialism. Among both, denial of our nature and scorn for the assertion of folkish identity prevail. This is especially true where youth are concerned. More unnatural and harmful ideas are expressed with every passing generation born into this sick society. Today, we stand divided: we are torn between the call of our Nordic blood to break the chains of destructive modern thought, and the existing hyper-rational status quo ceaselessly urging us to uphold it. A Folkish Rebirth is needed and the time draws near.

The meaning of life...You are born with a set mission in life, and to appreciate it completely, you must suffer through the most trying of times, so that you may pass your life into the life of another, and share your life with everyone that you meet, thus making your life and the lives of others more complete as you are an influence over all who pass you, whether you know it or not. You live, to pass this meaning to those less fortunate, and to your children, that they may use your wisdom to find their own path, and share their path with another.Your life is not your own. It is all encompassing around all that lives and breathes around you, to withold such knowledge only unravels the cycle of others in your life, and will continue to affect all who pass you, grow from you, and those that pass them. Or it could just be a hella good twinkie and a good night's rest...    -[TheRogue]

I have issues with people who treat me like I'm something special, but I have more issues with people who act like I treat myself like I'm something special. Yo, we're all special, we all suck, and I have better things to do than condemn others for the mistakes that they make. Trust me -- I have plenty of my own. It's the least I can do to help other people. What about you? -[whirlwind]

"A human being is part of the Whole...He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest...a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is, in itself, a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security."
- Albert Einstein

If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being, and who is willing to destroy his own heart?
