    I'd probably get confused.

    I like that one, thats why i rmembered it. not to mention it was the one you had when i started to come on this site and it kind of stuck in my head(because i liked it.)

    New signature quote, courtesy To the Lighthouse, my new favorite book.
    What is the use of a violent kind of delightfulness if there is no pleasure in not getting tired of it.
    - Gertrude Stein

    A washerwoman with her basket; a rook; a red-hot poker; th purples and grey-greens of flowers: some common feeling which held the whole together.
    - Virginia Woolf

    Thought I would go with two of my favorite things, that go really well together. Drinking coffee and reading.

    Congratulations! What a nice choice for a new favorite.

    Exclamation

    Signature: Me and my pets. What can I say?

    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    New picture in my signature, a carving of the real Virgil. Also changed the quote from Cicero to one by Virgil.

    I don't intend to change my signature a lot. From the day I created an account I only added the 'Das Leben ist eine Komödie, mach bitte kein Drama daraus' aphorism ('Life is a comedy, don't make a drama out of it').

    I love both your signatures Kandaaurov. Where is the TS Eliot one from?

    At a LOTR site I used to frequent you could do just that, your user name actually stayed the same but you could change your "display name" so people would see whatever you changed it to. It was incredibly confusing, I didn't like it... although it was nice if you wanted to go incognito for a day or two.

    feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
    porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
    but weighty and unmovable
    As black Dakota hills.

    I really like what people use for their avatar and then personalize their signatures ... it gives a bit of insight into that person's personality, as they have purposely chosen these things... Hmmm, maybe that is going too deep, in anycase, it IS interesting, lol!

    I really like that Faulkner quote of yours, Virgil.

    I want to change my signature, but I am too lazy today, maybe tomorrow...

    Yep, I'm not exactly happy with my avatar even though I change it so often. A purple butterfly is ok, but just, I don't know, boring?
    "The time has come," the Walrus said,
    "To talk of many things:
    Of shoes--and ships--and sealing-wax--
    Of cabbages--and kings--
    And why the sea is boiling hot--
    And whether pigs have wings."

    Why, thanks! It comes from his poem 'Ash Wednesday', but I came across it while I was reading a book I purchased about Zen quotes. I would like to be able to sit still, and achieve a small nirvana, I don't even ask for a big one heh

    Like Kiz said, your quote from Faulkner is great. Has a heroic tone to it, suits ever so well in a Virgilian context

    Cool, though it looks masculine.
