_ The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?</hr>
NietzscheThe surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.

- Albert EinsteinAs far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality.
_There are some who say that Time is itself a hammer: that each slow second marks another tap that makes big rocks into little rocks, waterfalls into canyons, cliffs into beaches.
There are some who say that Time is instead a blade. They see the dance of its razored tip, poised like a venomous snake, forever ready to slay faster than the eye can see.
And there are some who say that Time is both hammer and blade.
They say the hammer is a sculptor's mallet, and the blade is a sculptor's chisel: that each stroke is a refinement, a perfecting, a discovery of truth and beauty within what would otherwise be blank and lifeless stone.
And I name this saying wisdom.

- Chris Stevens (As played by John Corbett and written by Dennis Koenig and Jordan Budde), Northern Exposure, "Roots"Dreams are postcards from our subconscious, inner self to outer self, right brain trying to cross that moat to the left. Too often they come back unread: "return to sender, addressee unknown." That's a shame because it's a whole other world out there - or in here depending on your point of view.
