"...be a Columbus to whole new continents and worlds within you,
opening new channels, not of trade, but of thought."
- H.D. Thoreau, from Walden, 1840.

"Race and colour of skin, illusions of the world are these,
as all matter. A thing of geography and circumstance are they.
All souls are of the same Father-Mother. They who can overcome
the ignorance of their culture will embrace all humanity
and creation as their kin." - An Ancient Egyptian Proverb

"Paradigms, theories, interpretations and explanations
will have built in obsolescence, although this does
not deny their validity as necessary
and useful stepping stones in the process."
- Ksceondra El Hara, from Relationships of Transformation

"Never mistake a clear view for a short distance." - Paul Saffo

"My philosophy, in essence, is the concept of man as a heroic being,
with his own happiness as the moral purpose of his life,
with productive achievement as his noblest activity,
and reason as his only absolute."
- Ayn Rand, Appendix to Atlas Shrugged

"Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not it's end." Spock - Startrek IV

"Prayer is you talking to God; meditation is you listening to God."
- Yogi Amrit Desai

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is
that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our
darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be
brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?' Actually, who are you
not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve
the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other
people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make
manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of
us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
our presence automatically liberates others."
- Nelson Mandela (quoting Marianne Williamson, or vice versa),
Excerpted from the 1994 inaugural speech

"The heart has it's reasons that reason cannot fathom" - Pascal

"The man who doesn't read good books
has no advantage over the man who can't read them."
- Mark Twain

"...this discovery of yours will create forgetfulness in
the learners' souls, because they will not use their memories;
they will trust to the external, written characters and
not remember of themselves... your disciples (will be given)
not truth but the semblance of truth; they will be hearers
of many things, and will have learned nothing."
- Amun, to Tehuti on writing.

"The highest form of generalship is to balk the enemy's' plans;
the next best is to prevent the junction of the enemy's' forces;
the next in order is to attack the enemy's' army in the field;
and the worst policy of all is to besiege walled cities "....
- Sun Tzu, The Art of War

"In space, all warriors are cold warriors." - General Kang, Startrek IV
