Quote by George Bernard Shaw

You see things; and you say, 'Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say, 'Why not?'

Summary

This quote by George Bernard Shaw conveys the contrasting attitudes between those who question the status quo and those who dare to imagine beyond it. While some may simply observe and question the way things are, the dreamers challenge conventional boundaries and envision possibilities that have never been explored. Shaw challenges us to embrace a mindset of constantly questioning, pushing boundaries, and thinking outside the box, reminding us that true progress comes from challenging the limitations of the present and daring to create a different future.

Each day is a special gift from God, and while life may not always be fair, you must never allow the pains, hurdles, and handicaps of the moment to poison your attitude and plans for yourself and your future. You can never win when you wear the ugly cloak of self-pity, and the sour sound of whining will certainly frighten away any opportunity for success. Never again. There is a better way.

In college, in the early 1950s, I began to learn a little about how science works, the secrets of its great success, how rigorous the standards of evidence must be if we are really to know something is true, how many false starts and dead ends have plagued human thinking, how our biases can colour our interpretation of evidence, and how often belief systems widely held and supported by the political, religious and academic hierarchies turn out to be not just slightly in error, but grotesquely wrong.

For the first time in his life, Mont Blanc for a moment look

For the first time in his life, Mont Blanc for a moment looked to him what it was - a chaos of anarchic and purposeless forces - and he needed days of repose to see it clothe itself again with the illusions of his senses, the white purity of its snows, the splendor of its light, and the infinity of its heavenly peace. Nature was kind; Lake Geneva was beautiful beyond itself, and the Alps put on charms real as terrors.
