As I foretold you, were all spirits, and Are melted into air, into
thin air; And, like the baseless fabric of this vision, The
cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces,
The Solomon temples,
the great globe itself, Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve,
And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, Leave not a rack behind.
We are such stuff as dreams are made of and our little life Is
rounded with a sleep.
The Tempest
---Willy "The Man" Shakespeare
An expert is a man who has
made all the mistakes, which can be made, in a very narrow field.
---Niels
Bohr
"REDEFINING THE
ROLE OF THE UNITED STATES FROM ENABLERS TO KEEP THE PEACE TO
ENABLERS TO KEEP THE PEACE FROM PEACEKEEPERS IS GOING TO BE
AN ASSIGNMENT."
---G. W. Bush -JAN. 2001
I returned and saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift,
nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet
riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but
time and chance happeneth to them all.
---Ecclesiastes.
Our
nature consists in movement; absolute rest is death.
---Blaise
Pascal "To-morrow, and
to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this pettypace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death.
Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot,
full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."
Don't ever feel too complacent about our little part
of the galactic hood.
