More From Henry Rollins

You have your wonderful memories," people said later, as if memories were solace. memories are not. memories are by definition of times past, things gone. memories are the westlake uniforms in the closet, the faded and cracked photographs, the invitations to the weddings of the people who are no longer married, the mass cards from the funerals of the people whose faces you no longer remember. memories are what you no longer want to remember.
Memories Past People
Say a word, say a thousand to me on the telephone and i shall choose the wrong one to cling to as though you had said it after long deliberation when only i provoked it from you, i will cling to it from among a thousand, to be provoked and hurl it back with something i mean no more than you meant that, something for you to cling to and retreat clinging to.
Mean Long Telephones
As we go through life, even through very rough waters, a father's instinctive impulse to cling tightly to his wife or to his children may not be the best way to accomplish his objective. instead, if he will lovingly cling to the savior and the iron rod of the gospel, his family will want to cling to him and to the savior.

Did you not call this a glorious expedition? and wherefore was it glorious? not because the way was smooth and placid as a southern sea, but because it was full of dangers and terror, because at every new incident your fortitude was to be called forth and your courage exhibited, because danger and death surrounded it, and these you were brave to overcome. for this was it a glorious , for this was it an honorable undertaking

I've been traveling a lot, and i'm seeing a lot of desperation everywhere in america. a lot of sad desperation.
America Desperation Seeing
I learned to pray out of desperation. for most of us, this is how the adventure usually begins. when we finally get serious about prayer, the trigger is usually desperation, not duty.... we don't pray because we ought, we pray because we are without any other recourse.

I prayed for the city to be cleared of people, for the gift of being alone—a-l-o-n-e: which is the one new york prayer that rarely gets lost or delayed in channels, and in no time at all everything i touched turned to solid loneliness.

Days of trouble must be days of prayer.
Prayer Trouble
I choose gentleness... nothing is won by force. i choose to be gentle. if i raise my voice may it be only in praise. if i clench my fist, may it be only in prayer. if i make a demand, may it be only of myself.
Prayer Voice Self Control
Prayer is a confession of one's own unworthiness and weakness.
