PHOENIX; LEGACY

am i walking toward something i should be running away from?

fear is the relinquishment of logic, the willing relinquishing of reasonable patterns. we yield to it or we fight it, but we cannot meet it halfway.

no one would ever find me there.

all i could think of when i got a look at the place from the outside was what fun it would be to stand out there and watch it burn down.

i have told lies and made a fool of myself.

why do people want to talk to each other? i mean, what are the things people always want to find out about other people?

don’t let me know too surely what he thinks of me. 

people are always so anxious to get things out into the open where they can put a name to them, even a meaningless name, so long as it has something of a scientific ring.

if any of you has trouble sleeping, i will read aloud to you.

i clear breakfast at ten o'clock. i set on lunch at one. dinner i set on at six. it’s ten o'clock.

how do you gentlemen like living in a haunted house?

it gives me an excuse to have a drink in the middle of the night.

nothing upsets me more than being hungry; i snarl and snap and burst into tears.

i am a kind of stray cat, aren’t i?

i do not understand words and will not accept them in trade for my feelings.

i think we are only afraid of ourselves.

she loves beautiful things and i would go with her to find them.

we could go anywhere we pleased, to the edge of the world if we liked, and come back when we wanted to.

i never expected to find you all so nervous.

no one can catch me now; they don’t even know which way i’m going.

it is really unbelievably difficult to get accurate information about a haunted house.

it’s quite a hazard, quite a hazard indeed, people knocking you down.

losing my temper will not help.

i wonder how long she is going to stay?

and how long will you be able to stay?

all i want is to be cherished, and here i am talking gibberish with a selfish man.

first she stole her sister’s lover, and then she tried to steal her sister’s dishes.

i swear i saw bats in the woodwork.

people like answering questions about themselves, what an odd pleasure it is.

people have to live and die somewhere, after all.

what will you give me to remember you by?

you are not going to catch me so cheaply.

“Am I dreaming?”

“Are you an angel?”

“Are you asleep?”

“Are you hungry?”

“Are you listening to me?”

“Are you mad at me?”

“Are you okay?”

“Can I leave now?”

“Can you hear me?”

“Do you know what you’ve done?”

“Do you want to get something to eat?”

“Does that make sense?”

“Did it hurt?”

“How are you?”

“How are you doing?”

“How did I get so lucky?”

“Is that a threat?”

“Is that what I think it is?”

“Is this the end?”

“Is this really happening?”

“Is all this necessary?”

“May I have this dance?”

“What are you doing?”

“What is that?”

“What is wrong with you?”

“When are you leaving?”

“Where are we?”

“Where are we going?”

“Where are you from?”

“Where are you going?”

“Where did you come from?”

“Who are you?”

“Who are you, really?”

“Who is this?”

“Why are you like this?”

“Why did you lie?”

“Why do you have to leave?”

“Why don’t you understand?”

“Will you be quiet?”

‘  i didn’t know i was lonely till i saw your face.  ’

‘  i loved you then and i love you now.  ’

‘  the truth is i could spend my whole life getting over you.  ’

‘  you haven’t got a clue how badly i want you.  ’

‘  i don’t think i can ever learn how to love you right.  ’

‘  i like it when we talk, but i love it when we touch.  ’

‘  you remind me that it’s such a wonderful thing to love.  ’

‘  remember that first time that we kissed? it felt like a planet forming.  ’

‘  i know i’ve got issues, but they drown when i kiss you.  ’

‘  you haven’t called me in weeks and honestly, it’s bringing me down.  ’

‘  i’m happy. hope you’re happy too.  ’

‘  i’m just fearing one day soon i’ll lose my mind.  ’

‘  i wanna be the one that you call when you get down.  ’

‘  no matter where you are in the world, i’ll be around.  ’

‘  there’s no shiny place that i can go where losing doesn’t hurt like this.  ’

‘  the cruelest words about me come from my own mouth.  ’

‘  i never wanted anything from you except everything you had and what was left after that too.  ’

‘  to die by your side is such a heavenly way to die.  ’

‘  i’m sorry i’m a bit of a let-down.  ’

‘  everyone comes with scars, but you can love them away.  ’

‘  i’m sick of losing soulmates.  ’

‘  pull me close and tell me that you think i’m so pretty.  ’

‘  as soon as you meet me, you’ll wish that you never did.  ’

‘  though i don’t believe in magic, i believe in me and you.  ’

‘  for all i know, the best is over and the worst is yet to come.  ’

‘  this is torturous electricity between both of us.  ’

‘  if the heavens ever did speak, she’s the last true mouthpiece.  ’

‘  i hear noises in the darkness.  ’

‘  i hear sadness in your voice.  ’

‘  i know you’re sad even though you say you’re not.  ’

‘  parts of me remind me of you.  ’

‘  i know i’m headed for hell, but it feels like heaven with you.  ’

‘  i wish you would hurt me harder than i hurt you.  ’

‘  i wish you wouldn’t wait for me, but you always do.  ’

‘  remember the moment you left me alone and broke every promise you ever made?  ’

‘  i opened up my heart to you; it got all damaged and undone.  ’

‘  did i make it that easy to walk right in and out of my life?  ’

‘  i have died so many times, but i am still alive.  ’

‘  i always knew that we were doomed.  ’

‘  i guess time just doesn’t fly when you’re reliving every second of your past.  ’

‘  despite what you took, i miss what you gave.  ’

‘  forever is a long time, but i wouldn’t mind spending it by your side.  ’

‘  if i ask if you love me, i hope you lie to me.  ’

‘  you feel too little and i feel too much.  ’

‘  i’m not gonna sit here and deny what i’m pretty sure i felt.  ’

‘  i can’t keep you in these arms, so i keep you in my mind.  ’

‘  somedays i feel everything, others are numbing.  ’

‘  wish i had a time machine so you would never have to leave.  ’

‘  there’s still a thread that runs from your body to mine.  ’
