Free knowledge, freely
— Today's Motto of the Day

¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤

True ease in writing comes from art, not chance,
As those move easiest who have learned to dance.

~
Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
An Essay on Criticism, Part II (1711)

¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤

You write with ease, to show your breeding,
But easy writing's curst hard reading.

~
Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)
Clio's Protest (1819)

¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤

But words are things, and a small drop of ink,
Falling, like dew, upon a thought, produces
That which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.

~
Lord George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
Don Juan, Canto III (1819–1824)

¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤

The sentiment of art like the religious sentiment, like scientific curiosity, is born of wonder; the man who wonders at nothing lives in a state of imbecility and stupidity.
~
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770-1831)
Lectures on Aesthetics: Symbolic Art (1826)

¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤

If we have chosen the position in life in which we can most of all work for mankind, no burdens can bow us down, because they are sacrifices for the benefit of all;
...
Experience acclaims as happiest the man who has made the greatest number of people happy.
~
Karl Heinrich Marx (1818-1883)
Letter to His Father (1837)

¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤

If you tremble with indignation at every injustice, then you are a comrade of mine.
~
Saint Ernesto Che Guevara, Comandante Amigo! (14 June 1928, Rosario, Argentina – 9 October 1967, La Higuera, Bolivia)
Letter in reply to a letter from a certain Señora María Rosario Guevara from Casablanca asking of his origins (1964)

¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤

You are all geniuses, and you are all beautiful. You don't need anyone to tell you who you are. You are what you are. Get out there and get peace, think peace, live peace, and breathe peace, and you'll get it as soon as you like.
~
John Lennon (1940–1980)
Statement to the press in July 1969 after the release of the Plastic Ono Band's single "Give Peace a Chance"

¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤

When the child was a child, it didn’t know that it was a child, everything was soulful, and all souls were one.
~
Peter Handke (6 December 1942)
"Song of Childhood", Der Himmel über Berlin (1987)

¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤ ~~•~~•~~•~~ ¤

Follow your dreams. Don't let anything stop you!

About me

[edit]

What about me? ~ lol ~ Well, it's far too complicated to explain, and I don't like to talk about me because I'm not the best person to ask about this (^__^). I have so many interests, and, "probably", some skills. I am trying to be open-minded and as objective as I can. I am not only willing to consider new and different ideas and opinions, but, I am also ready to change my own ones. I hope to be an all-round good person. Well, this is all for now. Thank you for taking the time to read these "silly things" (^__^). If you would like to know more about me, please check out my userboxes or userboxen as you prefer, and my current favourite subjects.

Easter, 1916 by William Butler Yeats

I have met them at close of day
Coming with vivid faces
From counter or desk among grey
Eighteenth-century houses.
I have passed with a nod of the head
Or polite meaningless words,
Or have lingered awhile and said
Polite meaningless words,
And thought before I had done
Of a mocking tale or a gibe
To please a companion
Around the fire at the club,
Being certain that they and I
But lived where motley is worn:
All changed, changed utterly:
A terrible beauty is born.

That woman's days were spent
In ignorant good will,
Her nights in argument
Until her voice grew shrill.
What voice more sweet than hers
When young and beautiful,
She rode to harriers?
This man had kept a school
And rode our winged horse.
This other his helper and friend
Was coming into his force;
He might have won fame in the end,
So sensitive his nature seemed,
So daring and sweet his thought.
This other man I had dreamed
A drunken, vain-glorious lout.
He had done most bitter wrong
To some who are near my heart,
Yet I number him in the song;
He, too, has resigned his part
In the casual comedy;
He, too, has been changed in his turn,
Transformed utterly:
A terrible beauty is born.

Hearts with one purpose alone
Through summer and winter, seem
Enchanted to a stone
To trouble the living stream.
The horse that comes from the road,
The rider, the birds that range
From cloud to tumbling cloud,
Minute by minute change.
A shadow of cloud on the stream
Changes minute by minute;
A horse-hoof slides on the brim;
And a horse plashes within it
Where long-legged moor-hens dive
And hens to moor-cocks call.
Minute by minute they live:
The stone's in the midst of all.

Too long a sacrifice
Can make a stone of the heart.
O when may it suffice?
That is heaven's part, our part
To murmur name upon name,
As a mother names her child
When sleep at last has come
On limbs that had run wild.
What is it but nightfall?
No, no, not night but death.
Was it needless death after all?
For England may keep faith
For all that is done and said.
We know their dream; enough
To know they dreamed and are dead.
And what if excess of love
Bewildered them till they died?
I write it out in a verse --
MacDonagh and MacBride
And Connolly and Pearse
Now and in time to be,
Wherever green is worn,
Are changed, changed utterly:
A terrible beauty is born.

Today's featured article

Mario Party DS is a 2007 party video game developed by Hudson Soft and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS. It is the second handheld game in the Mario Party series, as well as the last game in the series to be developed by Hudson Soft, as all subsequent games have been developed by NDcube. Like most installments in the Mario Party series, Mario Party DS features characters of the Mario franchise competing in a board game with a variety of minigames, many of which utilize the console's unique features, including its built-in microphone, dual screen and touch screen mechanics, and motion sensitivity. Up to four human players can compete at a time, though characters can also be computer-controlled. Although Mario Party DS received mixed reviews, with general praise for its minigame variety and criticism for its absence of an online multiplayer mode, the game has sold more than nine million units worldwide, making it the 11th-best-selling game for the Nintendo DS.

John Tarleton

John Tarleton (8 November 1811 – 25 September 1880) was a Royal Navy officer who went on to be Second Naval Lord. He was given command of the fifth-rate HMS Fox in 1852, of the frigate HMS Eurydice in 1855 and of the frigate HMS Euryalus in 1858: he led the latter ship as an element of the Channel Squadron and then of the Mediterranean Squadron. Tarleton served as Junior Naval Lord from 1871 and then as Second Naval Lord from 1872 to 1874. He was promoted to Vice Admiral in 1875 and retired in 1879. He is seen here in an 1860 photograph by John Jabez Edwin Mayall.
