fallas:
"I know, O Caesar, that thou art awaiting my arrival with impatience,
that thy true heart of a friend is yearning day and night for me. I know that
thou art ready to cover me with gifts, make me prefect of the pretorian guards,
and command Tigellinus to be that which the gods made him, a mule-driver in
those lands which thou didst inherit after poisoning Domitus. Pardon me, how-
ever, for I swear to thee by Hades, and by the shades of thy mother, thy wife,
thy brother, and Seneca, that I cannot go to thee.
"Life is a great treasure. I have taken the most precious jewels from
that treasure, but in life there are many things which I cannot endure any
longer. Do not suppose, I pray thee, that I am offended because thou didst
kill thy mother, thy wife, and thy brother; that thou didst burn Rome and send
to Erebus all the honest men in thy dominions. No, grandson of Chronos.
Death is the inheritance of man; from thee other deeds could not have been
expected.
"But to destroy one's ear for whole years with thy poetry, to see thy
belly of a Domitus on slim legs whirled about in Pyhrric dance; to hear thy
music, thy declamation, thy doggerel verses, wretched poet of the suburbs,
--is a thing surpassing my power, and it has roused in me the wish to die.
Rome stuffs its ears when it hears thee; the world reviles thee. I can blush
for thee no longer, and I have no wish to do so. The howls of Cerberus,
though resembling thy music, will be less offensive to me, for I have never
been the friend of Cerberus, and I need not be ashamed of his howling.
"Farewell, but make not music; commit murder, but write no verses;
poison people, but dance not; be an incendiary, but play not on a cithera.
This is the wish and the last friendly counsel sent thee by the
--Arbiter Elegantiae."
_Quo Vadis_

mjkobb (Michael J Kobb):
"Socrates was a famous Greek teacher who went around giving people
advice. They killed him. He died from an overdose of wedlock.
After his death, his career suffered a dramatic decline."
-Anguished English
There's no swimming in the heavy water -- no singing in the acid rain.
-Rush, "Distant Early Warning"
We must acknowledge once and for all that the purpose of diplomacy is to
prolong a crisis. -Spock
You don't look back along time but down through it, like water.
-Margaret Atwood, _Cat's Eye_
Shut your eyes and you'll burst into flames. -The Log Lady

therese (Therese):
Go placidly among the noise and haste, remember what peace
there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender
be on good terms with with all persons. Speak your truth
quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and
ignorant, they too have their story - Avoid loud and aggressive
persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare
yourself with others, there will be greater and lesser persons
than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans -
Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a
real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise
caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of
trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is;
many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere, life is full
of heroism - Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection.
Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity
and disenchantment, it is as perennial as the grass - Take kindly
to the counsel of they years, gracefully surrending the things
of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden
misfortune. But do not distress yourself with imaginings.
Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome
discipline, be gentle with yourself - You are a child of the
universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right
to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the
universe is unfolding as it should - Therefore be at peace with
God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors
and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace with
your soul - With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is
still a beautiful world. Be careful, strive to be happy.
- Max Ehrman
