-Words to Live By-
|
|
|
|
Over the years,I have collected a series of quotes about various things that I
|
|
thought I might share with the world...some of them are sensible,some are not.
|
|
Pick what you like...its your life, eh?
|
|
|
|
Courage is the complement of fear.A man who is fearless cannot be courageous.
|
|
He is also a fool.
|
|
|
|
The truth of a proposition has nothing to do with its credibility,and vice
|
|
versa.
|
|
|
|
Beware of altruism.It is based on self deception,the root of all evil.
|
|
|
|
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity.
|
|
|
|
Does history record ANY case in which the majority was right?
|
|
|
|
Never frighten a little man.He'll kill you.
|
|
|
|
The greatest productive force is human selfishness.
|
|
|
|
Sin is best defined as hurting other people.Hurting oneself isn't sin,its just
|
|
stupid.
|
|
|
|
Thou shalt not alter thy brothers consciousness without his consent.
|
|
|
|
I must not fear.Fear is the mind killer.It is the little death that brings
|
|
total obliteration.I will face my fear,permit it to pass over and through
|
|
me.And when it has gone past,I will turn my inner eye to see its path.Where
|
|
the fear has gone will be nothing.Only I will remain.
|
|
|
|
Mankind is without a doubt the most conceited species in the universe.What
|
|
other race believes god has nothing better to do than to sit around all day
|
|
and help him out of tight spots?
|
|
|
|
Get a shot off FAST...this'll upset him long enough to let you make shot #2
|
|
perfect.
|
|
|
|
It may be better to be a dead lion than a live jackal,but it is better still
|
|
to be a live lion.And usually easier.
|
|
|
|
A motion to adjourn is always in order.
|
|
|
|
Your enemy is never a villan in his own eye.Keeping this in mind can help to
|
|
make a friend of him.If not,you can kill him without hate,and quickly.
|
|
|
|
You can have peace.Or you can have freedom.Don't count on having both at the
|
|
same time.
|
|
|
|
Democracy is based on the assumption that a million men are wiser than one man.
|
|
How's that again? I missed something.
|
|
|
|
Autocracy is based on the assumption that one man is wiser than a million men.
|
|
Lets play that over again,too.Who decides?
|
|
|
|
If you can't convince them,confuse them.
|
|
|
|
In case of doubt,make it sound convincing.
|
|
|
|
When in doubt,mumble.When in trouble,delegate.
|
|
|
|
Friends come and go.Enemies accumulate.
|
|
|
|
if you're feeling pretty good,don't worrry.You'll get over it.
|
|
|
|
If everything seems to be going well,you obviously don't know what the hell is
|
|
going on.
|
|
|
|
Do unto others...then split.
|
|
|
|
The human mind is a fantasy land operating to delude itself by assuming
|
|
whatever point of view is easiest to live with.
|
|
|
|
Thou shalt not disfigure the soul.
|
|
|
|
He's dead,and I'm alive,and thats the way I wanted it to be.
|
|
|
|
When in charge,ponder.
|
|
|
|
"Shon'ai Sa'jiran" : The cast is made,we must now live with the consequences.
|
|
|
|
You'll find anything in the last place you look.
|
|
|
|
A man who WON'T be blackmailed,CAN'T be blackmailed.
|
|
|
|
There is a theory that states that if anyone ever discovers exactly what the
|
|
Universe is for and why it is here,it will instantaneously disappear and be
|
|
replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
|
|
|
|
There is another theory which states that the above has already happened.TWICE.
|
|
|
|
In the beginning,the universe was created.This has made alot of people very
|
|
angry and has been generally regarded as a bad idea.
|
|
|
|
War is the greatest of teachers,and not all of its lessons are bad.Their cost
|
|
is just so terribly high.
|
|
|
|
The three best ways to lie are to: Tell the truth,but not all of it.To tell the
|
|
truth in such a way as to convince your audience that you are in fact lying,or
|
|
to simply say nothing at all,and let them make their own conclusions.
|
|
|
|
The Agnostics Prayer:
|
|
Insofar as I may be heard by anything,which may or may not care what I say,I
|
|
ask,if it matters,that I be forgiven for anything I may have done or failed to
|
|
do which requires forgivness.Conversely,if not forgivness but something else
|
|
may be required to insure any possible benefit for which I may be eligible
|
|
after the destruction of my body,I ask that this,whatever it may be,be granted
|
|
or withheld,as the case may be,in such a way as to insure my recieving said
|
|
benefit.I ask this in my capacity as my elected intermediary between myself
|
|
and that which might not be myself,but which may have an interest in the matter
|
|
of my recieving as much of said benefit as it is possible for me to recieve of
|
|
of this thing,and which may in some way be influenced by this ceremony.
|
|
|
|
It requires a very unusual mind to undertake the analysis of the obvious.
|
|
|
|
Governments aren't important in and of themselves.What they do for individuals
|
|
and for the future of the race as a whole is.
|
|
|
|
Insanity is the state of mind in which an individuals perception of the world
|
|
around himself differs signifigantly from that of the majority.But what of the
|
|
one eyed man in the land of the blind?
|
|
|
|
Shon'jir: From dark beginning
|
|
to dark at ending.
|
|
Between them a sun,
|
|
but after comes dark,
|
|
one ending.
|
|
From dark to dark
|
|
is one voyage.
|
|
From dark to dark
|
|
is our voyage.
|
|
And after the dark,
|
|
O brothers, O sisters,
|
|
Come we home.
|
|
|
|
Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.
|
|
|
|
The hardest thing to hide is something that is not there.
|
|
|
|
In the mirrors of the many judgements,my hands are the colr of blood.I am a
|
|
part of the evil which exists to oppose other evils.On that great day of which
|
|
the prophets speak,but in which they do not truly believe,on that day, when the
|
|
world is completely cleansed of evil,then I,too,will go down into darkness,
|
|
swallowing curses.Until that time,I shall not wash my hands,nor shall I allow
|
|
them to hang useless.
|
|
|
|
When the million applaud,ask what harm you have done.When the censure you,
|
|
what good.
|
|
|
|
Nothing has to BE true,but everything has to SOUND true.
|
|
|
|
Never allow a sense of morals to keep you from doing what is right.
|
|
|
|
When outnumbereed,attack.This drives the enemies strength towards itself.It
|
|
also scares the hell out of them.
|
|
|
|
When you are attacked,fall.Allow your enemy's strength to buffet you as a
|
|
strong wind does grass.He will soon expend himself,and you will remain,
|
|
upright.
|
|
|
|
Often,the most overpowering strategy is to do nothing at all.
|
|
|
|
Patience is a virtue best left to the dead,who can afford it.
|
|
|
|
To be idle requires a strong sense of personal identity.
|
|
|
|
When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour,it seems like a minute.
|
|
But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute,and it seems longer than any hour.
|
|
Thats relativity.
|
|
|
|
Any problem can be solved with the correct application of force.This does not
|
|
mean "Might makes Right", the operative word is CORRECT.
|
|
|
|
Nothing is so good that somebody,somewhere,won't hate it,and nothing is so bad
|
|
that someone won't love it.
|
|
|
|
The power to act confers the responsibility to do so.A true and ethical person
|
|
understands this,and will not hesitate to say "This is my responsibility and
|
|
I will accept it." Anything less is passing the buck.
|
|
|
|
They little knew of brotherhood,the faith of fighting men,
|
|
who once to prove their lie was good hanged Colonel Jaques Cretien.
|
|
One fourth of Rochmonts fighting strength,one battalion of Dorsai,
|
|
was sent by Rochmont forth alone to bleed Hulmuth and die.
|
|
But look,look down from Rochmont's height,
|
|
upon the Helmuth plain.
|
|
At all of Helmuth's armored force,
|
|
by Dorsai checked,or slain,
|
|
look down,look down on Rochmont's shame .
|
|
To hide the wrong she'd done,
|
|
made claim Helmuth had bribed Dorsais,
|
|
no battle had been won.
|
|
To prove that lie,the Rochmont lords
|
|
arrested Jaques Cretien,
|
|
on charge he'd dealt with Helmuth's chiefs,
|
|
for payment of his men.
|
|
Commandant Arp Van Din sent word:
|
|
"You may not judge Dorsai.
|
|
Return our Colonel by the dawn,
|
|
or Rochmont town will die."
|
|
Strongheld behind her walls,Rochmont
|
|
scorned to answer them,
|
|
condemned and at the daybreak,hanged,
|
|
young Colonel Jaques Cretien.
|
|
Bright,bright,the sun that morning rose,
|
|
upon each weaponed wall.
|
|
But when the sun set in the west,
|
|
those walls were leveled all.
|
|
Then soft and white the moon arose,
|
|
on streets and roofs untainted,
|
|
but when the moon was down once more,
|
|
no street or roof remained.
|
|
No more is there a Rochmont town.
|
|
No more are Rochmonts men.
|
|
But stands a Dorsai monument,
|
|
to Colonel Jaques Cretien.
|
|
So pass the word from world to world,
|
|
alone still stands Dorsai.
|
|
But while she lives,no one of hers,
|
|
by foreign wrong shall die.
|
|
Little they knew of brotherhood,the faith of fighting men.
|
|
Who once to porve their lie was good,
|
|
hanged Colonel Jaques Cretien.
|
|
|
|
Show me a completely smooth operation and I'll show you someone who's covering
|
|
mistakes.Real boats rock.
|
|
|
|
The transient and the eternal are the same.
|
|
|
|
The kzinti had learned the hard way that the reason humanity had decided to
|
|
study war no more was that humans were so very,very good at it.
|
|
|
|
Life is like a box...much in the same way that a box is like a box.You can only
|
|
get out of it exactly what you put into it.
|
|
|
|
Thats about it for this one...I will wander along again eventually with
|
|
something to babble about,or perhaps someone else will take a turn.Greets
|
|
go out to those in PM & TLS,and others who know who they are.
