Some asshole just farted in my pants.
08/09/17 :: Terry Pratchett (not verbatim)
Build a man a fire--he'll be warm a night Set a man on fire--he'll be warm for life
02/26/08 :: Dirge for Jamis on the Funeral Plain, from "Songs of Muad'Dib" by the Princess Irulan
Do you wrestle with dreams? Do you contend with shadows? Do you move in a kind of sleep? Time has slipped away. Your life is stolen. You tarried with trifles, Victim of your folly.
01/17/08 :: Gurney Halleck
I'm the well-trained fruit tree. Full of well-trained feelings and abilities and all of them grafted onto me--all bearing for someone else to pick.

"Any road followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere. Climb the mountain just a little bit to test that it's a mountain. From the top of the mountain, you cannot see the mountain."

I think this email passes the Turing test on accident: Hi, how's doing? The answer is lying on the surface. You're dead on your feet, man, I can tell! But chill out, there's plenty of people just like you. Do you know that an immense grow of people suffering from a sexual disorder is observed, it's being counted by millions already. Questioned? It's a modern life style. You get-you pay. Everyth [...]

ah, yuh that's right this one's for all the naysayers and dream-slayers who told the Hawk-man it couldn't be done. Listen up. Your momma is so fat, she's got a trashbag for a sock. She's so hairy she looks like she's got Don King in a headlock. Your momma is so ugly that her dog won't give her fleas. You could stick her face in dough and make monster cookies. Your momma is so da [...]

Alibech turns hermit, and a monk, Rustico, teaches her to put the Devil in Hell. Afterwards she is brought home, and married to Neerbale. Dioneus listened attentively to the Queen’s discourse, and when she had done and he knew that only he remained to complete the day’s entertainment, without trifling away the time or awaiting a command from the Queen, thus he began. Gracious ladies, it may [...]

She understands. She doesn't comprehend.
07/24/05 :: Gandalf
He who breaks a thing to find out what it is, has left the path of wisdom.

You've heard of animals chewing off a leg to escape a trap? There's an animal kind of trick. A human would remain in the trap, endure the pain, feigning death that he might kill the trapper and remove a threat to his kind.

Once, men turned thinking over to machines in the hopes that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.

'That which submits rules.' ... The willow submits to the wind and prospers until one day it is many willows -- a wall against the wind. This is the willow's purpose.
07/24/05 :: Gaius Helen Mohiam
A world is supported by four things ... the learning of the wise, the justice of the great, the prayers of the righteous and the valor of the brave. But all of these are as nothing ... without a ruler who knows the art of ruling. Make that the science of your tradition!

A process cannot be understood by stopping it. Understanding must move with the flow of the process, must join it and flow with it. (The First Law of Mentat)

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. And when it has gone I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
