“A word grows to a thought â€“ a thought to an idea â€“ an idea to an act. The change is slow, and the Present is a sluggish traveler loafing in the path Tomorrow wants to take.”
“Kipling: Where's your sense of humor? Rebis: We're working on reconstructing it...”
“The man of reflection discovers Truth;Â but the one who enjoys it and makes use of its heavenly gifts is the man of action.”
“The devil is a peace stealer, and he works hard to set us up to get upset. But we can learn how to change our approach so we don't live upset all of the time. And Jesus gives us the best example to follow.”
“I'm confident in myself, either way. I've pitched big games all my life.”
“Well, if I use Hispanic culture I get corruption and really good salsa music. If I use Chinese culture I get rigid thinking and decent Szechwan. If I use Islamic culture I get...not damned much of anything. And ditto for Africa although at least the rhythm is good and you can dance to it. But if I use Western European Culture I get industry, higher standards of living, longer lifespans and a generally happier society. Damn, I think I'll just have to go with WesternCiv even if I do have to put up with the Lutherans.”
“I love Françoise Hardy. She's my dream, she's just amazing.”
“Potius sero quam nunquam. Better late than never.”
