vesperala Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 There’s nothing wrong with mixing old and new, with combining different furniture styles, colours and patterns. Anything that is in your taste will automatically fuse to form an entire relaxing environment. A home does not need to be planned down to the smallest detail or contrived; it should be an amalgamation of the things that its owner loves and feels at home with. – Josef Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vesperala Posted August 29, 2010 Report Share Posted August 29, 2010 “There is something still worse, however, than being either criticized or dismantled by careless readers: it is being ignored. Since the status of a claim depends on later users' insertions, what if there are no later users whatsoever? This is the point that people who never come close to the fabrication of science have the greatest difficulty in grasping. They imagine that all scientific articles are equal and arrayed in lines like soldiers, to be carefully inspected one by one. However, most papers are never read at all. No matter what a paper did to the former literature, if no one else does anything with it, then it is as if it never existed at all. You may have written a paper that settles a fierce controversy once and for all, but if readers ignore it, it cannot be turned into a fact; it simply cannot. …You may protest against this injustice; you may treasure the certitude of being right in your inner heart; but it will never go further than your inner heart; you will never go further in certitude without the help of others.” (Bruno Latour, Science in Action, p. 40 (1987)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mnemosyne Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Money is spiritual. Connect with the spirit and money will flow. To keep the spirit, you must be legal, ethical, and moral. If we learn to be stewards of money, rather than gatherers of money, it teaches us to bring quality and intelligence to our use of financial resources in ways that reflect our inner wealth. Blood in the body must flow to all parts of the body for health to be maintained. When blood slows down and begins to stop or clot, the body becomes sick. When water is moving and flowing, it cleanses, it purifies, it makes things green, it creates growth. When water slows down, it starts to sludge, and becomes toxic. This is also true of money. Accumulating and holding large amounts of money can have the same toxic effect on our lives. Money is most useful when it is moving & flowing, contributed & shared, directed & invested in that which is life affirming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visdevara Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 How Many a Time, Beloved… – M. Eminescu How many a time, beloved, no longer do I know, There seems to spread before me a sea of ice and snow; And not a single star does in the heaven shine, Only the yellow moon quite far away… a sign. While o’er the drifted waste of frozen ocean there A bird with weary wings hangs in the winter air. Its mate has gone ahead, and left it all alone, Together with a flock that to the west has flown. And so it gazes after, with tired, straining eyes, But is no longer sorry now, nor glad… and dies, While do its parting dreams the happy past pursue. Day by day I’m farther, beloved one, from you, And slowly, cold and darkness do take me for their prey… While you fly on for ever, midst time’s eternal day. M. Eminescu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yelle1 Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 The mark of a mature man is a certain scar he bears: the memory of a perfect woman never won, or of a once-true love forever lost. However much he may love you, he is only here because she is not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
