Just a thought before I turn off for the night....

[sarettah]

It doesn't matter what activity anyone chooses. If you take any activity, any art, any discipline, any skill, take it and push it as far as it will go, push it beyond where it has ever been before, push it to the wildest edge of edges, then you force it into the realm of magic.

And it doesn't matter what it is that you select, because when it has been pushed far enough it contains everything else.

I'm not talking about specialization. To specialize is to brush one tooth. When a person specializes he channels all his energies through one narrow conduit; he knows one thing extremely well and is ignorant of everything else. That's not it. That's tame and insular and extremely limiting. I'm talking about taking one thing, however trivial and mundane, to such extremes that you illuminate it's relationship to all other things, and then taking it a little bit further - to the point of cosmic impact where it becomes all things.

Awesome thought for the night. Good enough in fact that I think I'll go to bed now & sleep on it too! :)

Thanks Sar.

Quoting some old beat generation poet whose opinion I prize only slightly higher than the opinion of the terd I flushed this morning.

He is not a poet. He is the last American Philosopher :headwall: :headwall: :headwall:

As far as the rest of your cunty answer I will attribute it to getting a snowball right smack between the eyes...

He is a useless fucking hippy and I am not surprised to find you read him. :)

I particularly like his best buddy McKenna who put forward a theory that language was invented through using magic mushrooms...ahhahahahahha

Come on....lol

Deep...

And there was me mulling over the lines.

"People said we couldn't sing, they called us mindless yobs.
But the only notes that really count are the ones that come in wads."

Big sister sent me the great rock n roll swindle on dvd.. forgot how good a film it is.

You would prefer maybe Rod McKuen :yowsa:

Or we could try a little "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" and Richard Bach crap...

That's probably more the Canadian deep thinker style :okthumb:

I think I'll go with Arthur C. Clake:


"When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong."


"The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible."


"Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic."

When the revolution comes, The Little Prince will be stuffed with Johnathan Livingston Seagull and roasted to an internal temp of 180, and then be fed to the rich.

When the revolution comes, The Little Prince will be stuffed with Johnathan Livingston Seagull and roasted to an internal temp of 180, and then be fed to the rich. Why do you think it's called "Fahrenheit 451"? http://oprano.com/msgboard/images/smilies/wink.gif

180? You must like to eat your books rare! http://oprano.com/msgboard/images/smilies/unsure.gif

Or is that "rare books"?

[MorganGrayson]

I had a feeling you would :p

Which gives you the rare opportunity of feeling something other than your dick. How special for you. :)

The rest of you are all name-dropping twats.

(Except for Sin, of course.) :)

What can I say, I enjoy playing with things that at least have a modicum of personality. :)

I'm sure it has a modicum of personality.
Statistically speaking, some part of your body had to. :p
