Ideas realized
"... the highest passion in a [hu]man is faith, and here no generation begins at any other point than did the preceding generation, every generation begins all over again..." "There are perhaps many in every generation who do not even reach it, but no one gets further." "'One must go further, one must go further.'" from "Fear and Trembling" by Søren Kierkegaard
"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe...
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion...
I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate.
All those
moments will be lost in time,
like tears in rain..".

“I shall not fear. Fear is the mind killer. Fear is the little death That brings obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me And through me.

“The most important tool is respect…
And the reason I know respect is a tool is because it is clearly not a natural thing and we forget to use it all the time. And then we start competing with each other, exploiting each other, humiliating each other and controlling each other. And we lose each other.
And without each other, we’ll go extinct.”
-Jeff Winger (Community: Anthropology 101)
“Uh, we learned that working together is better. Heh, whatever.”
-Finn and Jake (Adventure Time: Dungeon)

Socrates
“I simply imagine that my skeleton is me, and my body is my house, and that way I am always home.”
