"Nothing is worth more than this day. "
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"to be alive becomes the fundamental luck each ordinary, compromising day manages to bury"
"At certain moments, always unforseen, I become happy... I look at the strangers near as if I had known them all my life... everything fills me with affection... It may be an hour before the mood passes, but lately I seem to understand that I enter upon it the moment I cease to hate. "
- William Butler Yeats
I love this quote:
You will find that silence or very gentle words are the most exquisite revenge for insult.
Author: Judge Hall
moderation is arbitrary and capricious- as it is on all moderated threads
only on this one
I say it up front :-)
so you know
Freedom of association- it's important. It gives us the right to associate with folks we find congenial. That's a good thing. Let me may this very very simple, if your posts are nice, you will be able to post here, if they are not, you won't. If you are nasty to me, here, or elsewhere on SI, you won't be talking to me here. What I can't figure out is why some of you don't get that nasty just isn't fun to be around. You can get your blood pressure up with fighting, to be sure, but some people get tired of that sort of ritual combat after years of it. Let it go boys- and leave me alone. Get over the fact that you aren't nice enough to post here. You know you've been mean, over and over and over again, with no provocation from me for years, so have the guts to realize that's why you can't post here. |
