the end of World War II!

eichin (Mark W. Eichin):
I'm becoming more and more convinced that California really is unihabitable.
Between the air pollution and the water shortage, and this area being more
law-crazy than Massachusetts (Palo Alto just outlawed weeds. I'm not kidding!)
I'm really looking forward to getting back...

Words to age by:
We can never be sure that the opinion we are endeavoring to stifle is
a false opinion; even if we are sure, stifling it would be an evil
still.
-- John Stuart Mill

*********************************************************************
"Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years. People grow old
by deserting their ideals. Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up
interest wrinkles the soul. In the central place of every heart, there
is a recording chamber; so long as it receives the messages of beauty,
hope, cheer and courage, so long are you young. When the wires are all
down and your heart is covered with the snows of pessimism and the ice
of cynicism, then, and then only, are you grown old."
-- Douglas MacArthur, at 75

down by the salley gardens my love and i did meet;
she passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
she bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
but i, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.
in a field by the river my love and i did stand,
and on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
she bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
but i was young and foolish, and now am full of tears
-- yeats

men willingly believe what they wish
-- caesar
*********************************************************************
Happiness is an imaginary condition, formerly often attributed by the
living to the dead, now usually attributed by adults to children and
by children to adults.
-- Thomas Szasz
*********************************************************************
To be true to one's self is the ultimate test in life. To have the
courage and the sensitivity to follow your hidden dreams and stand tall
against the odds that are bound to fall in your path. Life is too short
and precious to be dealt with in any other fashion. This thought I hold
dear to my heart and I always try to be true to myself and others that I
encounter along the way.
-- Flo Hyman
********************************************************************
Manners are a sensitive awareness of the feelings of others. If you
have that awareness, you have good manners, no matter what fork you
use.
-- Emily Post
*********************************************************************
childhood is not from birth to a certain age and at a certain age the
child is grown, and puts away childish things, childhood is the kingdom
where nobody dies. nobody that matters, that is.
-- millay

who reads
incessantly, and to his reading brings not
a spirit and judgement equal or superior
(and what he brings, what needs he elsewhere seek?)
uncertain and unsettled still remains,
deep versed in books and shallow in himself.
-- milton
*********************************************************************
And most of all would I flee from the cruel madness of love--
The honey of poison-flowers and all the measureless ill.
tennyson, _maud_, 1830
*********************************************************************
Time goes, you say? Ah, no! Alas, Time stays, we go.

it is violently opposed. Third it is accepted as being self-evident.

mingliu (Minghsun Liu):
"I think I am designed by a force I can not content with, living in a
world that really doesn't exist anymore. I believe in the basic law of
natural selection where those achieving the greatest reproductive
success are selected for, but I do not have any child. I also believe
hunting is one of the most crucial step in the evolution of Homo
sapiens, but I do not cosume any meat. We do not know how much things
are capable of changing, but at least we are sure that we can rise and
revolt. The evolution of life on earth does not tell us what is correct
and what is wrong or that we have to base living on the exercise of free
will."
