QuoTeSS part 2

"I must govern the clock, not be governed by it."
Golda Meir

I think that in this quote it would make much sense to get rid off the letter "L" in the word "clock". I think that was the hidden message of rebellious Golda.



"Nothing ever goes away."
Barry Commoner

Barry was a very talkative person. He had one problem though, he didnt always finish the sentences. Berry we wish we could understand what you meant by this quote. it has so many interpretations,, and that my friend is no good. Sometimes i press the handle and flush it...due to a weak plumbing system in my building i often say "nothing ever goes away".

"I realized that If I had to choose, I would rather have birds than airplanes."
Charles Lindbergh

Charles what is the name of the last medicine that was prescribed to you? The reason I am asking is because i want to get a prescription too. I think it would bee cool to see yourself flying on some robin, which is like 300 times bigger than regular robins. It would be a whale-size robin. No gas, no oil, you just have to carry a bag of bread crumbs with you.

"Estimated amount of glucose used by an adult human brain each day, expressed in MMs: 250 "
Harper's Index

Thank you Harper`s index, Now I can get rid off all the fears about diabetic illnesses. I wonder how you came to such smart conclusion? I hope that you didn't do any funny experiments. You didnt eat all 250 MMs one by one with an interval of 5 minutes. That would ve been a tedious task. aw wait i think i know how u did it..u connected some sensors to your brain, then you ate one MM and then you looked at the monitor graph. Then you swallowed another MM and they again you looked at the monitor`s graph.By the 237th MM the world around you was no longer the same. Little MMs grew little hands and legs, they were running around the desk and the jar, playing with each other laughing just like the kids in the park do. Some of them were telling why they were blue, other why they were red. Right away some of them became your friends. Then something in you snapped and you became extremely violent, as a result you ate all of them.. You counted that it took two hundred and fifty of them to get back to normal state, which is the normal functioning of the brain.




Aldous Huxley:
"Your true traveler finds boredom rather agreeable than painful. It is the symbol of his liberty -- his excessive freedom. He accepts his boredom, when it comes, not merely philosophically, but almost with pleasure."

This is a great quote. How often we feel bored? all the time. Should we be upset about it? Probably no. Is it easy not being upset about being bored? No its not easy. Human beings that have experienced some great moments in life know that being bored is quite annoying. When you are driving in a super slow and super crowded bus you really do feel bored. I guess the trick is "acceptance",, as the author says.Two choices: resistance or acceptance. After all, no one promised you a life of many great adventures and million of good moments. Sometimes you re gona be bored,,and not simply bored,,but bored to death.

Bonaro W. Overstreet:

"Perhaps the most important thing we can undertake toward the reduction of fear is to make it easier for people to accept themselves, to like themselves."

This is a very dangerous proposition. There are many people who have fear because they feel ashamed for their lives. They feel ashamed because they did something which was not right. They fear that wrong decision and action might cause unpleasant consequences. This is a very useful mechanism. It makes people more thoughtful and more responsible about the choices they make and beliefs they create.
