"...And these children that you spit on as they try to change their worlds are immune to your consultations. They're quite aware of what they're going through..." -David Bowie, Changes

This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live... Deuteronomy 30:19

"O true apothecary!
Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die."


"O happy dagger!
This is thy sheath; there rust, and let me die."


The last words of the two star cross'd lovers; Romeo and Juliet...

Act I, Scene II...


Why, man, he [Caesar] doth bestride the narrow world
Like a colossus, and we petty men
Walk under his huge legs, and peep about
To find ourselves dishonourable graves.
Men at some time are masters of their fates;
The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars,
But in ourselves, that we are underlings.


--Julius Caesar (1599) William Shakespeare

"Et tu, Brute?"

"JUDENFREI"     was a term commonly used during the time of the holocaust... It's meaning... 
"FREE OF JEWS" 

Amongst the several million innocent people who were killed during the time of the Holocaust, the only person Adolf Hitler killed with his own two hands, was himself...

Act II, Scene II...


"Cowards die many times before their deaths; 
The valiant never taste death but once.
Of all the wonders that I yet have heard, 
it seems to me most strange that men should fear;
Seeing that death, a necessary end, 
will come when it will come".


        --Julius Caesar (1599) William Shakespeare

"Fairy tales are more than true: not because

they tell us that dragons exist, but because

they tell us that dragons can be beaten." 

                                                       --G.K. Chesterton

 Act III, Scene I...


"O, pardon me, thou bleeding piece of earth,
    That I am meek and gentle with these butchers!
    Thou art the ruins of the noblest man
    That ever lived in the tide of times.
    Woe to the hand that shed this costly blood!
    Over thy wounds now do I prophesy,--
    Which, like dumb mouths, do ope their ruby lips,
    To beg the voice and utterance of my tongue--
    A curse shall light upon the limbs of men;
    Domestic fury and fierce civil strife
    Shall cumber all the parts of Italy;
    Blood and destruction shall be so in use
    And dreadful objects so familiar
    That mothers shall but smile when they behold
    Their infants quarter'd with the hands of war;
    All pity choked with custom of fell deeds:
    And Caesar's spirit, ranging for revenge,
    With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
    Shall in these confines with a monarch's voice
    Cry 'Havoc,' and let slip the dogs of war;
    That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
    With carrion men, groaning for burial."


             --Julius Caesar (1599) William Shakespeare
            

"Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same." -- All At Once, The Fray

"The Jews are undoubtedly a race, but not human. They cannot be human in the sense of being an image of God..." --Adolf Hitler (May 1923 speech, Munich)


Why and how did racism and discrimination derive? It is true that the human species is more alike to each other than any other animal species. It is true that our genetic code is 99.999% the same. It is true that we share all these characteristics, yet we treat each other so differently. It is true that we are the most violent animal species. It is true that our species kills its own species more than any other animal. It is true that the only differences we have is our appearance, which was inherited through history and geography. It is true that our only differences are so minute and miniscule that the colour of our skin is nothing compared to the content of our character. It is true that for centuries, many different people have influenced youth and adults to believe racism is right and racism is wrong. It is true that racism should not exist in a world where we all need to work together to love and make peace. Therefore, it is true that Adolf Hitler was indeed the second anti-christ and that he rewrote the commandments so they could suit how he saw the world, (in his own way). Therefore, it is true that if the people of Germany opened their eyes to the violence and stood up to the German army, the holocaust may have been avoided. Adolf Hitler.. May he rest in peace and find clarity in his resting place..

"If I believed that my reply were made
To one who to the world would e'er return,
This flame without more flickering would stand still;
But inasmuch as never from this depth
Did any one return, if I hear true,
Without the fear of infamy I answer..."
'Inferno' by Dante Alighieri (Canto 27; Lines 61-66)

"People were created to be loved
Things were created to be used
The reason why the world is in CHAOS,
is because things are being loved, 
and people are being used."

Edgar Allan Poe's last words before he died...

If I could transform my thoughts into art, I would create a masterpiece beyond what has ever been created, because with my imagination and my dream for fantasy, I am able to imagine peace and no suffering, love and no violence, happiness and no hatred. If I could transform my thoughts into art, I would create a masterpiece beyond what has ever been created. 

Beneath The Bed Covers

Everyday, I create slits
And shed blood, sweat and tears as I restrain hits
It's not like I want the sorrow
But it's how my life is, a horror

I have my goals, but I don't know if I will be able to meet them
Each day, I hide underneath my bed sheets, close my eyes and talk to mum
Telling her that papa is making me cry
Although she might not hear, I still try

I become who I really am under my blanket
I wonder if anyone will remember me when I am in a casket
I dream of a new life better than this
That is the dream that I will miss.
--Sharon Tan
