<p>“I see no reason for believing that one accident should be able to give me a correct account of all the others.”</p>
<p>–C.S. Lewis</p>
<p>“I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don’t let anybody tell you different.”
-Kurt Vonnegut
I think I’ve posted this before, but whatever.</p>
<p>“It was a crisp and spicy morning in early October. The lilacs and laburnums, lit with the glory-fires of autumn, hung burning and flashing in the upper air, a fairy bridge provided by kind Nature for the wingless wild things that have their homes in the tree-tops and would visit together; the larch and the pomegranate flung their purple and yellow flames in brilliant broad splashes along the slanting sweep of the woodland; the sensuous fragrance of innumerable deciduous flowers rose upon the swooning atmosphere; far in the empty sky a solitary esophagus slept upon motionless wing; everywhere brooded stillness, serenity, and the peace of God.”</p>
<p>-Mark Twain</p>
<p>The wild things roared their terrible roars and gnashed their terrible teeth
and rolled their terrible eyes and showed their terrible claws
but Max stepped into his private boat and waved good-bye
and sailed back over a year
and in and out of weeks
and through a day
and into the night of his very own room
where he found his supper waiting for him
and it was still hot.</p>
<p>Baseball is the only field of endeavor where a man can succeed three times out of ten and be considered a good performer. ~Ted Williams</p>
<p>^If you’re gonna do baseball quotes you have to do Yogi.</p>
<p>The more you sweat in peacetime the less you bleed in war.</p>
<p>Heard it in a song but googled it and found out it’s from the Art of War.</p>
<p>You only get to you live your life once, but if you do it right once is all you need.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I like that. Art of War = good stuff.</p>
<p>You read it, or the English version atleast?</p>
<p>^I’ve read a couple different English translations. One written by a Chinese general who fought under Mao. Here’s another quote I like from it:</p>
<p>“When strong, feign weakness. When weak, make a show of strength… …In all you do deceive your enemy, and you will be sure of victory.”</p>
