Thoughts Book #6
By W. L. Kite



We should remember that not all of the young do stupid things, and that the ones that do, have a lot of company in many of the older.

Have you ever had that feeling down deep inside, that there are things that are not over?

A chance is something that is worthless unless it is taken.

Losing is never good, but it is better than never having a chance to win.

Some times there just are not words to convey what you really want to say, that is why it is not always possible to make others understand what you really mean.

Who is the wiser, one who knows what he fears, or one who fears what he knows.

When you set out to buy time, you soon find that the price is high, very high.

The questions keep coming, even when the answers do not.

At times the mind is clouded with thoughts of things long in the past.

The trouble with bucket seats, is that everyone has a different size bucket.

One who takes a part of your heart with them when they leave your life is not a thief, if you gave it to them willingly.

Love can drive you to many things, it can also leave you stranded in the middle of nowhere.

There are those who defy age right up to the end.

I try to set aside a little time each day for Me, Myself, and I to all get together, just so we can all get our story straight.

Those who stand alone, always stand taller than others.

I do not know it all, but what I do know I am sure of, for I learned it the hard way.

Some things we learn quickly, like when to let go of some thing so hot that it burns our hands, and some things we learn slowly, like when to keep our mouths shut, and when to speak up.

Cry not for me, for I have done enough crying for the both of us.

To the children of tomorrow I say, I had faith in you even before you were born, because I had faith in your parents.

Young wolves hunt in packs, for they feel strength in numbers, old wolves hunt alone, for they feel safety in what age has taught them, and confidence in their ability to be successful on their own.

An old warrior fears not the battle, only the day when there will be no battles left to fight.

It is not the battle that a warrior loves, but the chance to once more cheat death.

Some ideas spend little time inside my head, for if they are of hate, and anger I have know room for them.

We all need a little quiet time alone now, and then, so we can just listen to the sounds of our own thoughts.

I saw a dream come true once, it was a beautiful sight, I hope to live long enough to see it happen again.

Strange it is indeed the things you find when you are not looking for them.

My faith in the young of today is reinforced by the fact that I meet more fine young people everyday.

You should have no fear of me, for I care more about you, than you care about yourself.

There seems to be no reason at all behind the fact that some people are lucky, and some are not.

That there is more water than land is proof of just how many tears have been shed.

When they start telling you about the seniors' discounts everywhere you go, you may be getting old.

Why is it that there are those who will believe the biggest lie, but not the smallest truth?

If it were up to me, you would be happy.

It may be late in the game, but at least the game is not over yet.

Some people run, before they know if they need to.

Love comes when you least expect it, and leaves always to soon.

Time moves in silence, and slips away before you know it.

Just because the idea was not yours, doesn't make it a bad one.

I hope I can leave something behind that will let the as yet unborn of the future know that I thought of them often while I was alive.

Another light in my life grows dim, and will soon be gone forever.

Those who fear to much are doomed to failure, and those who fear nothing are headed for disaster.

I will listen to what is on your mind, if you will listen to what is in my heart.

The only things frozen in time are the dead.

If you think no one cars, you are wrong, I care.

The right words are there, they just have not been spoken yet.

If you follow me, you will pass through the valley of sorrow many times.

If only one could write death out of the script of life.

When you make yourself a target, you must know that you will be shot at often.

It was easier when I did not care as much, but it was not better.

Many seek the truth, few will ever find it, and of those that do find it fewer yet will ever understand it fully.

The truth never hurts anyone, as long as they do not find it out.

In the pursuit of my dreams there is no bridge to far.

Death awaits us all, some sooner than others.

In the shadow of death, new life waits to be born.

It is easy to say you care, but much harder to prove it.

That death waits for all of us is a fact, that we all fear death is not.

The wind whispers things to me, things it does not tell everyone.

I try not to cause others pain, for we have all had more than enough of that.

The right time is always now when it comes to saying what is in your heart.

Just how far is to far, and do you really want to know?

Nothing good ever grows from a bad seed.

A smile is all I ask for what I do, if you find a better deal, take it.

Love was meant to be shared, it is worthless if it is not.

If a dream is to survive in the light of day, the dreamer must learn to live the dream.

We sometimes find that when it is over the fear of it was worse than the thing itself.

The journey of life takes us from point B to point D .

There are times when my train of thought stops short of the station.

Love knows not rhyme, reason, nor rule, it knows only that it is.

For love, some would kill, while others would be willing to die for love.

I often wonder how many of those I see on life's highway are headed somewhere, and how many others are running away from some place.

A real friend will tell you when you are making an ass of yourself, and if you are their real friend you will thank them.

The only real way home is through deaths door.

The rules of love have never changed, for there never were any rules to love.

A boy becomes a man only when his heart is broken for the first time.

A man becomes an old man when his heart is broken for the last time.

If heartbreaks were fatal, few would live beyond their teens.

When two of a kind meet, there is no telling what might happen.

If life were easy, what would be the point of it?

It is not my fault you don't like me, I have tried my best.

We come into life with nothing, how can we leave with any less?

Even when there is only one way of doing something wrong, there always seems to be someone who will try that way first.

Just because a line has been crossed once, it does not mean that it is no longer there.

In life you will find doors that open outward, and you will find some that open inward.

For each of us it is only a matter of time before time begins to matter.

The fast track is no place for a slow train.

Of all computers the one hardest to program is the human brain.

I know all the answers to the questions that no one ever ask me.

A cold heart can burn you quicker than a warm one.

What starts out as a lie can end up as the truth if you are not careful.

If not for pain, some would feel nothing at all.

Blame is one thing that no one seems to want their fair share of.

There are things that can only live as long as there is someone that believes in them.

To fear knowledge, is to be a fool.

If you dare not ask the question, it is likely you could not stand the answer anyway.

Your station in live may depend on what track your train has taken.

To a plumber, pipe dreams are just part of the job.

A reign of terror, nurtures only the seeds of rebellion.

To think a thought that no thinker has ever thought before, is hard to do, or so I have always thought.

How strange in deed is the mirror, and the image it lets you see, for while up, and down are always right, left is where right should be.

When you draw a blank in life, you must try to fill it in the best you can.

Would the fact that some are black, and some are white really matter if we could not see?

The writer knows what his words mean, and when he can make the reader see it, he has done his job well.

The only thing worse than going off half cocked, is to take off when you are loaded.

Before you can kick yourself for what you just said, you will need to get your foot out of your mouth.

The biggest moves we make in life take no packing to make.

Only sadness lives where love does not.

Before you wish you were in some else's shoes, you should know if you could fill them or not.

A life full of nothing, is wroth just that.

Isn't it strange that others want to know what you think, but if they don't like it they get mad at you?

Never be afraid to be who you really are.

There are those who try very hard to be a real pain, and some are really good at it.

The saddest word is “NO” , and the most dangerous word is “YES”.

You should always keep a smile on your face, if for no other reason it will drive your enemies up the walls.

There are few looks that can ever match the look in the eyes of a child who has just discovered something new.

I see in the young something that is missing in many of the older, a little optimism about life.

To fear the truth is to fear life, and I refuse to fear life.

If it didn't work, so what, at least you gave it a try.

It is much harder to hold on to something good, than to let go of something bad.

Remember that you are the star of your own show, Its called This Is
Your Life.

If you were to just let yourself go, it's hard to tell where you might end up.

Once there were three wise men, boy could we use them now!

It is always a mistake to think that there is nothing left to be learned.

There is no road so long that it has not an end.

From kitty Hawk to the Moon in the last century, what comes now in this new century.

When one paints a picture with words, the canvas can be anything one can write on.

If you hit me, I will hit you back, after all I am just a man, not Jesus.

Some fear the future for what it may bring, others fear the past for what it may reveal.

There are those that know more than you might think, and some think much more than you know.

How can the days seem to be getting longer, while at the same time the years are going by so much faster?

No longer will I make the same old mistakes, I think I will try some new ones in the time I have left.

 You may tell me that you have no pain, but I know better, for I have looked into your eyes, and they cannot lie to me.

The best way to keep from making the same mistake twice, is to not make it in the first place.

If you want to know what the face of tomorrow will look like, take a good look at the faces of the young of today.

If you keep missing the mark in life, you might want to consider adjusting your sights.

The ones who need to listen the most, always seem to be the ones with their mouths open all the time.

In the city of the silent, all dwell in peace.

We are never stronger than when our cause is one.

Somehow we must find a way to teach the young about honor, it will be a hard job for us, for we have had far to few teachers ourselves.

To reach the heart of some, you must first get pass their mind set.

Even the strongest must sleep at times, and when asleep all are vulnerable.

Time marches on, right over the top of everything in its path.

No amount of washing can ever clean some things.

The fish needs the water, the water does not need the fish.

Where all else has failed, love may yet triumph.

Being able to say what you really feel, can, and does open doors that are locked to those who cannot.

Time does seem to slow down, and speed up now, and then, but it never stops.

If you have not had your heart broken yet, you still have that to look forward to.

Anyone who has been in love knows that the heart can still keep beating long after the brain goes dead.

There are times when the only thing that works is the one thing everyone tells you cannot work.

The more mistakes one makes, the wiser one should become, but it does not always work out that way.

No one can make things all better for you, the most you can hope for is that someone can, and will help a little.

The heart doesn't always know best, it knows only when, and where it feels best.

 When one tries to defend the senseless, one looks senseless.

Honor is a thing one can only earn, they cannot buy it, one can lose it, or throw it away, but no one else can take it from them.

Those who will not compromise are most likely doomed to defeat, but there is something about them that I do so admire.

Valor knows no color, no age, no gender, nor any one home on this world.

There are things that one should not try to analyze to much, one should just enjoy them while they last.

There are no round trip tickets on the train to hell.

The song of life is sung by all, but there are some that sing better than others.

If you build your road of life along the path of least resistance, it will never lead you to where you really want to be.

There are times in life when what one must leave behind will be of greater worth than what one takes with them.

There will never be a greater need for love, and understanding than right now, no matter when right now may be.

Remember that today is yesterday's tomorrow.

Some walk right by the very things they say they are looking for everyday, and yet they never see them.

There are those that think far to highly of themselves, while others value themselves far to little.

Those who spend there time trying to find out who is the blame for the problem, are most likely spending far to little time on solving the problem.

Some are so shallow, that one needs no boots to wade through their
 thoughts.

The wind of change blows some in the direction of greatness, and others it just blows away.

If some cannot have center stage, they don't want to be in the show at all.

To fall from grace, one must have been there to start with.

Your eyes tell you what you see, your mind tells you what you think of it, but your heart is what tells you how you feel about it.

In the battle to remain sane, a good sense of humor is the best weapon you can have.

One should always remember that in life reasoning works only on the reasonable.

The more warped the mind, the more twisted the thoughts.

Where to many tears have fallen everything dies, and nothing will ever grow there again.

Take time while you can, for time will take you where it will before you know it.

The truth is always there, even when you wish it were not.

No walls are high enough to hold in a free mind.

The body can be held captive, but not the soul.

In the war against ignorance, many are going into battle unarmed.

The reason the oldest trick in the book always works,  is that everyone has forgotten about it!

Men see women as they are, women see men for what they can make them into.

Does it every seem to you that you end up finishing more things than you started?

If the kill has become more important to you than the hunt, it is no longer a sport.

There are those who's lives shine like a beacon from a lighthouse, to show others the safe way home.

The only thing worse than being in love, is not being in love.

Be careful of what you say, for you can never unsay it.

Some believe the human race is on its last lap, but I see no end in sight.

If there were no fools, who would show us what not to do?

Don't say you care if you do not, for I would rather be rejected, than lied to.

Before you can find the meaning of life, you must live a little.

At times it is harder to accept the answer, than it was to ask the question.

Sadder than death, is life without love.

It may well be better to be a lovable fool, than a lonely wise man.

If you cannot see the good in others, you have no chance at all of ever finding the good within yourself.

When something good is shared, it is enjoyed all the more, and when pain is shared, it hurts much less.

If you have felt the pain of others, you have within you now a part of them, and you are linked to them forever.

Life is a storm the ends only with the last breath of air.

All that is seen, is not all that is.

Being made to eat your words will be easier if your words are always sweet ones.

The young see old as something they will never be, the old see young as something they will never be again.

The fear of a thing can sometimes hurt you more than the thing you fear.

The time you once had is gone, the time you have left is all that matters now.

It matters not how many times you fall on the way as long as you get there in the end.

Dying poor is not so bad, if one has lived a rich life.

Breathing if done long enough will cause death.

When a fool wins an argument, what does that make the person who lost it?

The mind, like cities, has its back streets, and some are not safe to walk down.

Intellect without common sense is a very dangerous thing.

To love again, is to live again.

To fear things you do not know is normal, and to fear what you do know is sometimes wise.

Nothing last forever, but there are things that seem like they do.

The mind cries out for help, the heart cries out for love.

If the price is nothing, the value is the same.

We to often fear the things we should not, and not the things we should.

If you have been a fool for love, you are a member of a very large club.

Death is all that awaits those who are afraid to live.

Getting halfway to somewhere is better than getting nowhere at all.

When the shadows grow long, you know the light is fading fast.

Those who believe they are safe are in far more danger than those who know they are not safe.

A lonely man is a loner, a lonely women is a shame.

To have heard the word from its source is far better than to be told it by someone else.

The truth is not always bad news, just most of the time.

Everyone may know what happened, but only you know why.

The young will see a world that the old will not, just as the old have seen a world the young cannot remember.

The young have dreams, the old have memories.

Not all roads lead to somewhere, some are just dead ends.

Death is not the enemy, the things that cause death are!

On the sea of life, there are never enough lifeboats for all those who's ships have sunk.

The more that is said about some things the less there seems to be known about them.

Time, not man will decide the fate of this Earth.

Where life is found, death is not far away.

If it makes no sense at all, it is just what some are looking for.

Those who make little effort, make little difference in life.

Why does no one ever ask the one who knows?

There are  things one does by choice, and things one does for the lack of choice.

To cling to a faded love, is better than holding on to an old hatred .

To an outsider, the inside looks better than it often is.

No one knows it all, most know just enough to be really dangerous.

Not everyone who acts a fool, is a fool, some are just very sly.

Those who never take risks, may live longer, but they will never live as well as those who do.

If you are not careful you will wish you had been, and if you are careful you will wish you had not been.

To die is easy, to live is hard.

Some in life will make you see red, and some will make you see blue.

Tears are 1% water, and 99% sorrow.

Are the tears of one any wetter than those of another?

We are all cut from the same cloth, but we are not all washed in the same water.

Lost loves are very rarely found, but they are always remembered.

Going along for the ride is never the same as being behind the wheel.

When some thoughts meet, all hell breaks lose.

If a clock really did have hands, would it still let time slip away?

It is in the darkest hours that some shine their brightest.

In matters of the heart, the mind has little influence.

Not all lights shine brightly, some glow soft, and warm.

The art of the pen is far different than the art of the brush, for the ink is of one color, it is the words that are of many colors.

Death is a doorway through which all living things must one day pass.

When both mind, and heart share the same goal, great things can happen.

If for no other reason one should do the right thing just because it is the right thing to do.

On the stage of life, all actors must someday take their final bow.

There are things long dead that can come to life again, love is one of them.

Not all heavenly bodies are up in the heavens!

Those who have walked the same road in life, share much.

The nice thing about getting older is that with each passing day there are fewer mistakes left to make.

To watch the sunset with one you love is perhaps the greatest trill life has to offer.

When one cries so hard inside, that no tears can make it to the outside, they are hurt beyond any chance of ever healing.

How many times can you move something before there is nothing left of it to move again.

If you feel you are receiving messages from beyond this Earth, perhaps you really are!

The trouble with  Eden, was that it did not last.

When a dream becomes a nightmare, it stops being fun.

The pen as a weapon, may yet prove itself to be the most powerful.

 If you always go with the crowd you will never find those little off the path places, and you will never really know peace of mind.

Once the ink gets into your blood, you will write even in your sleep.

There is much in the blood that one cannot deny.

It is in the mind that the seeds of  hatred grow, and in the heart that the flowers of love bloom, and within the soul that they must both learn to live together.

The effects may remain, long after the cause is gone.

If you really want to hide out for a while, just try looking like you need help, no one will ever notice that you are there.

Some days are just a little bit worse than others, and then there are days like today.

At times you can just tell when a part of your life is about to end.

Each new page in the book of our lives, gives use a chance to start over again.

If you overload the machines, they will quit working, and if you overload the people who run the machines, they will just plain quit.

Whatever peace of mind cost one, it is will wroth the price.

Only when you can forgive all, will your heart be free of the things that hurt it most.

Most will love more times in life than they will be loved in return.

Of those we let into our hearts in life, some will break it, and others will mend it.

Like a train in the night, some speed through the darkness of life, putting all their trust in the track they are on.

The threat of war, is seldom enough to keep the peace.

You cannot be lost, if you did not know where you where headed when you set out.

Some questions should not be ask, and even if they are ask, they should not be answered.

When it is time to go, one must get up, and leave.

The right to be wrong, is one we all have.

No plan is perfect, and most are not even close.

Make no mistake, time is always the taskmaster, always.

When you know who wrote the rules, it does help to explain why they are the way they are.

Sometimes the well meaning do more harm than those that set out to do harm.

There is little that changes much, and much that changes little.

By the time the confusion  of tomorrow gets here, you will have forgotten the senselessness of today.

If timing really is everything in life, there are many who have nothing at all going for them.

Those that seek gold, and sliver, pass over many precious gems in life.

Those that call for the most change, are often themselves the things that need changed the most.

Of love, one must always ask, is the pleasure of it wroth the pain of it?

In the matter of things, some things just matter more than others.

Much more has been talked about, than has ever been done.

Not all who speak against the Government are  traders, some are patriots.

We at times remember things as being better than they really were.

Change is not about giving up who you are, but more about becoming more than you were.

Where you are when your life clock starts is less important than where you are when it stops.

By the hand of man, much has been changed, some for the better, some for the worse.

There is so much need in life, and so little of what is needed.

As surely as happiness is a state of mind, love is a heart condition.

Love is a tune played on the strings of the heart.

You are lost, only when you stop trying to find your way.

Mother Nature, and Father Time are strict parents.

In the silence of the grave, many secrets rest for all time.

Once there was peace on Earth, then along came man.

Those who are unwilling to change with the times, are doomed to be left in the past.

We carry with us in life many things that we should have left behind long ago, and we leave behind many things that we should have hung on to forever.

Without love, we are hollow shells, through which regret echoes often.

The battle is not over, until the last shot is fired.

A smile still works at times, when nothing else will.

We seem to look for perfection more in others than in ourselves.

It is better to want something you can never have, than to have something you never wanted.

Sometimes the ride is free, but you may have to pay to get off.

We live such a short time, and all of it is spent dying.
