The Girl, The Gold Watch and Everything.......
A couple of quotes from Tom Robbins' novel Villa Icognito, just because sometimes it seems like I'm living one of his most bizarre,convoluted, bemusing and ironic plots............sort of a magnum dopus.
"Just because you're naked
Doesn't mean you're sexy,
Just because you're cynical
Doesn't mean you're cool.
You may tell the greatest lies
And wear a brilliant disguise
But you can't escape the eyes
Of the one who sees right through you.
In the end what will prevail
Is your passion not your tale,
For love is the Holy Grail,
Even in Cognito.
So better listen to me, sister,
And pay close attention, mister:
It's very good to play the game,
Amuse the gods, avoid the pain,
But don't trust fortune, dont trust fame,
Your real self doesn't know your name
And in that we're all the same:
We're all incognito."
and I love this........but ya gotta think about it
"It is what it is."
"You are what you it."
"There are no mistakes."
Thus endeth the entry..........
