Today I caught myself smiling for no reason… then I realized I was thinking about you.

Have you ever been talking about someone and all of a sudden you catch yourself with a huge smile on your face, I love that feeling.

You seem like a sweet person. Mind if I lick you to find out?

Who better to share your dreams with than the person you dream about?

I gave you the whole sun and stars to play with. I gave you eternity in a single moment, strength of the mountains in one clasp of your arms, and the volume of the seas in one impulse of your soul … I have given you the greatest of all things; and you ask me to give you little things.

It’s so crazy, you walked into the room that day, just like every other day except this time my heart skipped a beat.

You’re crushing me with your cuteness!

Cute crush saying

It takes a minute to have a crush on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to love someone – but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

It is hard to pretend to like someone you don’t, but even harder to pretend to not like someone when you really do…

I would wait till forever just so we could be together. If only you weren’t so blind to see, how much you truly mean to me.

Don’t apologize for your feelings, it’s like apologizing for the truth.

You know you really like someone, when you sit the painful way in your chair just to get a better look at them.

It’s not telling you how I feel that scares me it’s what you’ll say back.

A collection of various quotes from the movie, Waking Life. The movie is about a man who goes about meeting many different people and discussing the possible meanings and reasons to life and the universe. Enjoy these quotes!

A poster for the movie Waking LifeThey say that dreams are only real as long as they last. Couldn’t you say the same thing about life?

On really romantic evenings of self, I go salsa dancing with my confusion. – Speed Levitch

When it was over, all I could think about was how this entire notion of oneself, what we are, is just this logical structure, a place to momentarily house all the abstractions. It was a time to become conscious, to give form and coherence to the mystery, and I had been a part of that. It was a gift. Life was raging all around me and every moment was magical. I loved all the people, dealing with all the contradictory impulses – that’s what I loved the most, connecting with the people. Looking back, that’s all that really mattered. – Woman at Restaurant

The trick is to combine your waking rational abilities with the infinite possibilities of your dreams. Because, if you can do that, you can do anything. – Guy Forsyth

Creation seems to come out of imperfection. It seems to come out of a striving and a frustration and this is where I think language came from. I mean, it came from our desire to transcend our isolation and have some sort of connection with one another. And it had to be easy when it was just simple survival. Like you know, “water.” We came up with a sound for that. Or saber tooth tiger right behind you. We came up with a sound for that. But when it gets really interesting I think is when we use that same system of symbols to communicate all the abstract and intangible things that we’re experiencing. What is like… frustration? Or what is anger or love? When I say love, the sound comes out of my mouth and it hits the other person’s ear, travels through this byzantine conduit in their brain through their memories of love or lack of love, and they register what I’m saying and they say yes, they understand. But how do I know they understand? Because words are inert. They’re just symbols. They’re dead, you know? And so much of our experience is intangible. So much of what we perceive cannot be expressed. It’s unspeakable. And yet you know, when we communicate with one another and we feel that we have connected and we think that we’re understood I think we have a feeling of almost spiritual communion. And that feeling might be transient, but I think it’s what we live for. – Kim Krizan

We have got to realize that we’re being conditioned on a mass scale. Start challenging this corporate slave state. – Alex Jones

The worst mistake that you can make is to think you’re alive when really you’re asleep in life’s waiting room. – Guy Forsyth

What you do makes a difference. We should never simply write ourselves off and see ourselves as the victim of various forces. It’s always our decision who we are. – Philosophy Professor

The idea is to remain in a state of constant departure while always arriving. –
Boat Car Guy

…and as we all know, fun rules. – John Christensen

A single ego is an absurdly narrow vantage from which to view this experience. And where most consider their individual relationship to the universe, I contemplate relationships of my various selves to one another. – Man on Television

Thanks for reading. If you haven’t seen Waking Life and you like deep, philosophical conversation, I’d recommend checking it out.
