Yeats1 I like this

Yeats1 is a 43 year old single guy from Hermosa Beach, Ca, California, USA.
"A room without books is like a body without a soul"--Cicero Biography: I was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. After graduating high school, I drove a 1972 Super Beetle across the country and ended up settling in Hermosa Beach, California. I was a history major at the University of California, Los Angeles. I am a published poet and the author of two books, Geneva, a Novel and Search Your Self: 365 Meditations for the Mind, Body and Soul, which was published by William Morrow. I also have written extensively for the Internet. As a hobby, I teach sheep herding and compete in herding competitions. Me and my dog Apollo were featured on CNN. I still reside in Hermosa Beach. I live with my nine-year-old son Dylan and our new dog, a red Border Collie named Flash.

Love is a reciprocal torture.
Photobucket
A woman one loves rarely suffices for all our needs, so we deceive her with another whom we do not love.

Like everybody who is not in love, he thought one chose the person to be loved after endless deliberations and on the basis of particular qualities or advantages.

We do not succeed in changing things according to our desire, but gradually our desire changes. 

Every reader finds himself. The writer's work is merely a kind of optical instrument that makes it possible for the reader to discern what, without this book, he would perhaps never have seen in himself.
 

--Marcel Proust
