The space for what you want is already filled with what you settled for instead.
truth crazy silly
So much of what we said sounded crazy, yet none of it was false... as if two theoretical physicists stood on stage to say that when we travel near lightspeed, we get younger than nontravellers; that a mile of space next to the sun is differnt than a mile of space next to the earth because the sun-mile space is curved more than the the earth-mile.

If we agree that the world is not what it seems, then we have an important question: What shall we do about it?
life around-the-world said
Live never to be ashamed if anything you say or do is published around the world, even if what is said is not true.
jonathan-livingston-seagull worst jonathan-seagull
Bad things are not the worst things that can happen to us. Nothing is the worst thing that can happen to us!
believe ignorance butterfly
The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the Master calls the butterfly.
ideas united-states states
In the United States Christmas has become the rape of an idea.
