Impression is an individual process. What may impress and excite one, may cause confusion or boredom in another. It is this diversity which instills in us the desire to search for the many wonders we have yet to discover. And, do we not love discovery?

Venturer: What's happening?
Nemesis5: Oh, not much.
Venturer: Stars are exploding in galaxies infinitely far away, and new ones are being formed just as far, it's a beautiful day somewhere, and you say 'oh not much' ....are we not happy today?

Kahlil Gibran: And let your best be for your friend. If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also. For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill? Seek him always with hours to live. For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness. And in the sweetness of friendship let there be sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

(scene from the movie "Willow")

Mad Martigan: You are my sun, my moon, my starlit sky. Without you, I dwell in darkness. I love you.
Sorsha: What are you doing here?
Mad Martigan: Your power has enchanted me. I stand helpless against it. Come to me, now. Tonight, let me worship you in my arms.
Sorsha: Get away from me.
Mad Martigan: I love you.
Sorsha: Stop saying that.
Mad Martigan: How can I stop the beating of my heart? It pounds like never before.
Sorsha: Out of fear!
Mad Martigan: Out of love!
Sorsha: I can stop it. I'll kill you.
Mad Martigan: Death next to love is a trivial thing. Your touch is worth a hundred thousand deaths.

Then: The kiss!

Arnold Schwarzenegger: I'll be back!
