Faith is a great thing, and really religious people would like us to believe that faith and knowing are the same thing, but I don't believe that myself. Because there are too many different ideas on the subject. What we is this: When we die, one of two things happens. Either our souls and thoughts somehow survive the experience of dying or they don't. If they do, that opens up every possibility you could think of. If they don't, it's just blotto. The end.

Knowing one's 'individuality'. - We are too prone to forget that in the eyes of people who are seeing us for the first time we are something quite different from what we consider ourselves to be: usually we are nothing more than a single individual trait which leaps to the eye and determines the whole impression that we make.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Some men's words I remember so well that I must often use them to express my thought. Yes, because I perceive that we have heard the same truth, but they have heard it better.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Unless one is taught what to do with success after getting it, achievement of it must inevitably leave him prey to boredom.

Bertrand Russell

It is easy to sit up and take notice, What is difficult is getting up and taking action.

Al Batt

A crank is someone with a new idea -- until it catches on.
