Quote by Kehlog Albran

It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle if it is lightly greased.

It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle

Summary

This quote is a playful twist on a biblical saying and is meant to highlight the absurdity of the situation presented. The original biblical saying states that "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." However, this modified version adds humor by suggesting that if the camel is lightly greased, it might have a better chance of fitting through the needle's eye. Ultimately, this quote emphasizes the extreme difficulty or near-impossibility of achieving something and adds a touch of whimsy and satire to the concept.

In solitude we are in the presence of mere matter (even the sky, the stars, the moon, trees in blossom), things of less value (perhaps) than a human spirit. Its value lies in the greater possibility of attention.

The original root of the word information is the Latin word

The original root of the word information is the Latin word informare, which means to fashion, shape, or create, to give form to. Information is an idea that has been given a form, such as the spoken or written word. It is a means of representing an image or thought so that it can be communicated from one mind to another rather than worrying about all the information afloat in the world, we must ask ourselves what matters to us, what do we want to know. It's having ideas and learning to deal with issues that is important, not accumulating lots and lots of data.
