Ours' comes from Karl Ristikivi, an Estonian poet and writer.
We like its' existential touch and the connection to dreams.
I slept too long;
my dreams were too heavy
and now i do not remember
why I awoke

If you believe even a half of this post, you are severely mistaken.
from the first moment I read your signature I was smitten with love of the words and the way they made me feel.
post more Tal. We love your thoughts.
Mine is from Salman Rushdie. I'm not 100% sure of the context but I believe it was from a press conference or statement that he made in response to the reaction to "The Satanic Verses". My avatar shows the alternative to Rushdie's sentiments - nazis burning books - by way of contrast.
Xamonas--I've been wondering for awhile exactly what was going on in your avatar, but I thought it looked fairly ominous for some reason. Now I know why.
My signature is from the first poem in Petrarch's rime sparse. I recently posted the full poem on the introductions thread if you're curious. I chose it as a compliment to my screen name.
"In rime sparse il suono/ di quei sospiri ond' io nudriva 'l core/ in sul mio primo giovenile errore"~ Francesco Petrarca
"Follies and nonsense, whims and inconsistencies do divert me, I own, and I laugh at them whenever I can."~ Jane Austen
Mine is from "The Empire Strikes Back".

Oh my that's why it sounded SO familiar... Well I knew it was Petrarca but I never linked it to the first one... Now I recall everything, I loved that poem, and the school times when I felt I was a poet (that feeling has been olst over the years) and I had dreams and ideals.. Wow it's been agesOriginally Posted by Petrarch's Love
Xamonas, I love your sig too.
dead on the inside, i've got nothing to prove
keep me alive and give me something to lose
