celine (Who Drugged Thumper?):
Ginsberg's Theorem:
1. You can't win.
2. You can't break even.
3. You can't even quit the game.
Freeman's Commentary on Ginsberg's theorem:
Every major philosophy that attempts to make life seem
meaningful is based on the negation of one part of Ginsberg's
Theorem. To wit:
1. Capitalism is based on the assumption that you can win.
2. Socialism is based on the assumption that you can break
even.
3. Mysticism is based on the assumption that you can quit the
game.

Nothing in the world can take place of persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and Determination alone are omnipotent.
The slogan `Press On` has solved and always will solve the
problems of the human race.
-Calvin Coolidge

tazman (Bruce N. Wallace):
You used to call me in the morning,
you used to call me at night.
But now you don't call me anymore.
Why, oh why? Why, tell me why?
Why you don't call me anymore?
Because times change, and so do people.
