Generally I like reading anything philosophical and poetic. Spiritual writings are also of a particular interest of mine. in. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence but the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown. It is of interest to note that while some dolphins are reported to have learned English -- up to fifty words used in correct context -- no human being has been reported to have learned dolphinese. In order to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first create the universe. However, the universe is not required to be in perfect harmony with human ambition. In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion. Do not do unto others as you would they should do unto you. Their tastes may not be the same. Democracy substitutes election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few... this is why he who can, does and he who cannot, teaches. If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange these apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas. Reasonable people adapt themselves to the world. Unreasonable people attempt to adapt the world to themselves. All progress, therefore, depends on unreasonable people. Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time. The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it. Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it. No dictator, no invader, can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever. There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom. Against that power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand. The Centauri learned this lesson once. We will teach it to them again. Though it take a thousand years, we will be free. People spend too much time finding other people to blame, too much energy finding excuses for not being what they are capable of being, and not enough energy putting themselves on the line, growing out of the past, and getting on with their lives. People who soar are those who refuse to sit back, sigh and wish things would change. They neither complain of their lot nor passively dream of some distant ship coming in. Rather, they visualize in their minds that they are not quitters; they will not allow life's circumstances to push them down and hold them under. The remarkable thing we have is a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I cannot even imagine where I would be today were it not for that handful of friends who have given me a heart full of joy. Let's face it, friends make life a lot more fun. To be without some of the things you want is an indispensable part of happiness. The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts. When it comes to the future, there are three kinds of people: those who let it happen, those who make it happen, and those who wonder what happened. *** Discovery is seeing something what everybody else has seen, and thinking what nobody else has thought. Being defeated is often a temporary condition. Giving up is what makes it permanent***
