  1. things aren’t always what they seem. the colours of the rainbow seem so simple yet there is so much inbetween them that are lost in transition. who are we to blame? life is too fast paced to take a deeper look at the things that are just below the surface. we take what we see and forget about anything deeper. we don’t have time. I don’t have time. these colours are as lost as ourselves in the city.

  2. All in all, humans are basically animals. We are territorial, and don’t want anyone to take what’s ours. We need food, and if we get desperate enough, we’ll steal or even kill for it. We need sex, and most people would have it at the drop of a hat without even getting to know the other person if it didn’t make us feel so cheap. Basically, humans are base and primal…

  3. “It’s simple. Basic really.” He said, attaching one wire to another. The young man with him groaned and slammed his head on the desk. “I don’t GET it. How does it come so easy to you?” The older man chuckled, his eyes smiling. “You’ll understand it one day Peter, for now just watch and learn.”

  5. I really dislike this word. There are some words that work for me. ‘Unsuccessful’ or ‘participatory’. For lots of different reasons, there are words I adore. What the hell is ‘basic’? It’s nearly as bad as the crap I was reading last night – on ‘Jesus the Village Psychiatrist’. If you don’t do your research and make an effort to understand what’s really going on, basic is what you’ll be left with, and that’s no good to anyone – it could be very very dangerous indeed.

  6. basically i love the word basic. it just makes everything so simple. when some one speaks to you they say a lot of mumbo jumbo then at the end they say the word BASICally and all of the sudden it makes sense. It is a very important word. basically the best

  8. the basic need of life are not being fulfilled and because of this it is getting really hard to meet the ends meet.

  9. simple, back to our origins. “basic” misleads, makes us think of a sackcloth on a golden haired beauty, instead of her fancy gown. or is it the golden hair that is “basic”? is it her beauty that simply, quietly calls to us?

  12. basically, before the story began it ended. it ended quick like the guillotine’s blade upon the thin skin of the neck. josef ran his fingers up her thigh and tried not to think any further. she closed her eyes, grabbed his hand, got up and said she had to leave.

  13. simple to the extreme. the “bare-bones” of everything. easy in concept but hard to achieve.

  15. Back to basics, my mother always told me. She always told me that simple is best, go back to what you know. So everything about me is basic- from my face to my clothes to my favorite color white- simple, non-ornate, easy to find, easy to miss, basic. There is always room for improvement, but do I want to change something that clearly works?

  16. its a basic kind of math, the math of living. one person plus the other equals another completely different person. take away one thing and you’ll have less. it really is just living

  17. Basic is a very basic word. Not dynamic, Not anything big. Just basic! Like you have your writing basics, gymming basics, basics of education, basics of everything. That’s just what it is. Basic. The very basic, the very minimal, the very essential.

  21. Today in the lab, that one blonde who’s considering a major in environmental biology asked for my help and, like a schoolboy, I obliged. There’s a sparkle in her eye that keeps me from recognizing the fact that either of us is human.

  23. Back to the beginning.

    You remember this. The first steps, the building blocks. Take it one move at a time. You remember how difficult this once seemed—once was? It’s easy now, isn’t it? You’ve moved on, learned more, gotten better.

    And now—now it’s second nature. You’re ready.

  24. It’s simple to understand, yet you don’t. It’s easy to learn, yet you can’t. You don’t make any sense to me. You say that you’re just making basic mistakes as though that’s a good thing, but it’s not. You’re in college, you should understand the difference between “their” “they’re” and “there.”

  30. basic is what is normal. It is often bland and boring. However, it can also be beautiful in its most basic form. Sometime beauty is basic.

  31. Basic living and life as we are. So existentialists would see it as living in the moment and viewing everything exactly how it is and being very sensual with everything. Doing things because it feels right no matter what the consequences are . It’s interesting to see how there are many different perspectives on the basic way of living and life as we know it.

  38. On a basic level, we are mammals. We are driven by instinct. Our instinct manifests itself into emotions. We are steered by those in directions we don’t even want to take. Then like whipped cream, or a cherry on a sundae, you have the reasoning skills.

  39. basic was hard but I learned about life there. I found the edge and fell over it bleeding. But I also found me. And I like it.
