Phenomenal Woman

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies. I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size But when I start to tell them, They think I'm telling lies. I say, It's in the reach of my arms The span of my hips, The stride of my step, The curl of my lips. I'm a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That's me. I walk into a room Just as cool as you please, And to a man, The fellows stand or Fall down on their knees. Then they swarm around me, A hive of honey bees. I say, It's the fire in my eyes, And the flash of my teeth, The swing in my waist, And the joy in my feet. I'm a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That's me. Men themselves have wondered What they see in me. They try so much But they can't touch My inner mystery. When I try to show them They say they still can't see. I say, It's in the arch of my back, The sun of my smile, The ride of my breasts, The grace of my style. I'm a woman Phenomenally. Phenomenal woman, That'

The Devil and Miss Prym

There is still something very important missing--a companion with whom to share all this beauty. Profoundest changes take place within a very reduced time frame. Challenge will not wait. You shouldn't believe in promises. The world is full of them. About the lies he had been obliged to believe because he could not accept reality. Men take the oddest satisfaction in feeling superior without knowing that most of the time they are being utterly predictable. She was all too familiar with the silence of this remote place which signified not peace and tranquility but a total absence of new things to say. It was a wretched place in which everything was predictable, organized and reliable. Everyday was another day spent waiting. Every night was a night when she might meet someone who would recognize her true worth. She realized that there were 2 things that prevent us from achieving our dreams: believing them to be impossible or seeing those dreams made possible by some sudden turn of the

Twilight

I ate breakfast without tasting the food. It's too easy to be myself with you. I can't stay with you. And I'm afraid that I'd like to stay with you, much more than I should. So involved was I in my escapist daydreams, I lost all track of the seconds racing by. To be perfectly honest, she'll be unavailable every night, as for as anyone besides myself is concerned.--Edward to Mike He means well. When life offers you a dream so far beyond any of your expectations, it's not reasonable to grieve when it comes to an end. It was nice to be alone, not to have to smile and look pleased; a relief to stare dejectedly out the window at the sheeting rain and let just a few tears escape. I didn't struggle to forget. Forbidden to remember, terrified to forget. My temper was hardwired to my tear ducts. "It's twilight, " Edward muttered..."The easiest to me. But also the saddest, in a way...the end of another day, the return of the night." I was at a

Breaking Dawn

Each pain had a simple answer, a clear action to end that pain. She's everything you want and everything you can't have. Because you always want the very most what you can never have. Pain so bad you'd take death a smile just to get away from it. Reality was knowing there was something so much important than all this torture and not being able to remember what it was. One infinite moment of pain. Childhood is not birth to a certain age and at a certain age. The child is grown and puts away childish things. Childhood is the kingdom where nobody dies. --St. Edna Vincent Millay Bachelor parties are designed for those who are sad to see the passing of their single days. I couldn't be more eager to have mine behind me. I'm sure about you. The rest I could live through. Waste not, want not.You are officially perfect. Always have, always will. And yet, to say the truth, reason and love keep little company together nowadays. --William Shakespeare

Fly on the Wall Vol 1-2

To pull ones punches is to do a disservice to oneself, as well as to ones opponent. It defies the value for excellence and the rule of fair play. To pull ones punch is to say that the other is unworthy of your best shot. It means you forfeit taking your best shot. It has always fascinated me why others can't rein in their impulse to aggress against others for the most inane reasons--like, maybe they don't like your hair, the way you walk, or the fact that others like you. They don't realize that their feeling is their problem. Or if they do realize that, they don't want to be responsible for their problem, so they set out to make it yours. Girls handicap themselves more often than boys. We are set early on the road of regulating the display of our ability and denying the best we can be in order to make relationships work. She'll find that there will be roads that she will need to travel alone where others are ill-equipped to follow. She is of generation that needed
