"Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning." - Rick Cook

Charity degrades those who receive it and hardens those who dispense it. --------------- Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved. --------------- Faith is an excitement and an enthusiasm: it is a condition of intellectual magnificence to which we must cling as to a treasure, and not squander on our way through life in the small coin of empty words, or in exact and priggish argument. --------------- He who draws noble delights from sentiments of poetry is a true poet, though he has never written a line in all his life. --------------- I regard as a mortal sin not only the lying of the senses in matters of love, but also the illusion which the senses seek to create where love is only partial. I say, I believe, that one must love with all of one's being, or else live, come what may, a life of complete chastity. --------------- I see upon their noble brows the seal of the Lord, for they were born kings of the earth far more truly than those who possess it only from having bought it. --------------- Life in common among people who love each other is the ideal of happiness. --------------- No one makes a revolution by himself; and there are some revolutions which humanity accomplishes without quite knowing how, because it is everybody who takes them in hand. |

All men are prepared to accomplish the incredible if their ideals are threatened. --------------- Eternity is a mere moment, just long enough for a joke. --------------- Everything becomes a little different as soon as it is spoken out loud. --------------- I have always believed, and I still believe, that whatever good or bad fortune may come our way we can always give it meaning and transform it into something of value. --------------- It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is. --------------- Our mind is capable of passing beyond the dividing line we have drawn for it. Beyond the pairs of opposites of which the world consists, other, new insights begin. --------------- Those who cannot think or take responsibility for themselves need, and clamor for, a leader. --------------- When dealing with the insane, the best method is to pretend to be sane. --------------- You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, single power, a single salvation... and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else. |
