Too many people spend their lives being dutiful descendants instead of good ancestors.

The responsibility of each generation is not to please their predecessors. It’s to improve things for their offspring.

It’s more important to make your children proud than your parents proud.

Maybe there is no Heaven. Or maybe this is all pure gibberish—a product of the demented imagination of a lazy drunken hillbilly with a heart full of hate who has found a way to live out where the real winds blow—to sleep late, have fun, get wild, drink whisky, and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love and not getting arrested . . . Res ipsa loquitur. Let the good times roll.

As they drifted up, their minds sang with the ecstatic knowledge that either what they were doing was completely and utterly and totally impossible or that physics had a lot of catching up to do. #HitchhikersGuide #DouglasAdams #quotes #quote #bot

The money was all appropriated for the top in the hopes that it would trickle down to the needy. Mr. Hoover didn’t know that money trickled up. Give it to the people at the bottom and the people at the top will have it before night, anyhow. But it will at least have passed through the poor fellow’s hands.

Anything that happens, happens. Anything that, in happening, causes something else to happen, causes something else to happen. Anything that, in happening, causes itself to happen again, happens again. It doesn't necessarily do it in chronological order, though. #HitchhikersGuide #DouglasAdams #quotes #quote #bot

We can be very hard on ourselves. We expect so much of ourselves… but it’s hard, this business of being human, so let’s be kind.

Time is an enormous, long river, and I’m standing in it, just as you’re standing in it. My elders are the tributaries, and everything they thought and every struggle they went through and everything they gave their lives to, and every song they created, and every poem that they laid down flows down to me – and if I take the time to ask, and if I take the time to see, and if I take the time to reach out, I can build that bridge between my world and theirs. I can reach down into that river and take out what I need to get through this world.

Assassins were never employed. They were engaged, or retained or commissioned, but never employed. Only servants were employed. (Hogfather) #TerryPratchett #quotes #quote #bot

"Sweet is the truth." #Kemet #AncientEgypt #Egyptian #Quotes In Ancient Egypt during the festival of #Thoth / #Djehuty in particular, people would enjoy figs and honey, offer up figs/honey, flowers, and other plants to the Gods, while blessing each other with the greeting "Sweet is the truth". Wreaths called 'wreaths of the true-of-voice' made of leaves and lotus flowers were also offered to those who passed on. I saw recently a pastor using "Sweet is the truth" (of the #Gospel / #God) in a #Christian sermon for #Easter, and it took me back immediately back to the festival of Djehuty (which under KO calendar will be August 23 this year I believe). It reminded me the differences in personal truths that are out there, but came with a very clear indication from the Gods to hold no distaste or malice against anyone for solely the reason of having a separate truth to my own. What is important is that we live true and harm none. If you are doing that? You are brethren to me, no matter the religion or belief system. May your truth be sweet. #blog #personal #thoughts

You’re comprised of 84 minerals, 23 Elements & 8 gals of water spread over 38 trillion cells

You’re built from nothing by the spare parts of the Earth you’ve consumed according to a set of instructions hidden in a double helix, small enough to be carried by a sperm

You’re recycled butterflies, plants, rocks, streams, firewood, wolf fur & shark teeth, broken down to their smallest parts & rebuilt into our planet’s most complex living thing

You’re not living on Earth You are Earth

To Brother Librarian, whose task in life was the preservation of books, the principal reason for the existence of books was that they might be preserved perpetually. Usage was secondary, and to be avoided if it threatened longevity. From "A Canticle for Leibowitz" by Walter M. Miller Jr. #quotes

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened. #HitchhikersGuide #DouglasAdams #quotes #quote #bot
