oh, the wisdom of the great Pilkington... Love him. Worryingly I've started using some of his vocabulary when talking to people, grippage and webbage really need to be in the dictionary ;D One quote of his I'll never be using when talking to people, "I could eat a knob at night" - Karl Pilkington Hilarious whether it's taken in or out of context!

He is pretty much the king of random quotes. "Now Hilda, she was your bog standard old woman" My iPod probably only contains only about 10% music, the rest is full of every pod cast and XFM show Karl has ever done. I have a really bad habit of listening to them when I'm on packed train journeys, I must look like a proper mentalist (See using Karl/Ricky vocab again! : laughing to myself in the corner.

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.” ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

“Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it's not because they enjoy solitude. It's because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them.”

Shy and proud men are more liable than any others to fall into the hands of parasites and creatures of low character. For in the intimacies which are formed by shy men, they do not choose, but are chosen. - Henry Taylor

'So many people are shut up tight inside themselves like boxes, yet they would open up, unfolding quite wonderfully, if only you were interested in them'.
- American novelist and short story writer, Sylvia Plath (1932-1963).
Brought a slight tear to my eye, that one.

Brought a slight tear to my eye, that one. I love her. A lot. Only familiar with The Bell Jar, really. But I'm thinking of reading it for the 3rd time. :/
