And this holds for the thoughts of the materialists and astronomers as well as for anyone else's. But if their thoughts - i.e., of Materialism and Astronomy - are merely accidental by-products, why should we believe them to be true?I see no reason for believing that one accident should be able to give me a correct account of all the other accidents.It's like expecting that the accidental shape taken by the splash when you upset a milk-jug should give you a correct account of how the jug was made and why it was upset.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:The only real mistake is the one from which we learn nothing.[John Powell] Quote:I take my wife everywhere, but she keeps finding her way back.[Henny Youngman] Quote:A good many young writers make the mistake of enclosing a stamped, self-addressed envelope, big enough for the manuscript to come back in.

[Cato the Elder] Quote:When I woke up this morning my girlfriend asked me, 'Did you sleep good?' I said 'No, I made a few mistakes.' [Steven Wright] Quote:You think Nature is some Disney movie? Nature is a killer. Nature is a bitch. It's feeding time out there 24 hours a day, every step that you take is a gamble with death. If it isn't getting hit with lightning today, it's an earthquake tomorrow or some deer tick carrying Lime disease. Either way, you're ending up on the wrong end of the food chain. [Jeff Melvoin] Quote:What is it about genus arboretum that socks us in the figurative solar plexus? We see a logging truck go cruising down the road, stacked with a bunch of those fresh-cut giants, we feel like we lost a brother. Next thing you know, we're in The Brick, we're flopping money down on the bar. Wood. We're under a roof. Wood. We're walking the floors. Wood. Grabbing a pool cue. That's wood. Our friends in the forest carry a set of luggage from the mythical baggage carousel. Tree of life, tree of knowledge, family tree, Buddha's Bodhi tree. Page one of life, in the beginning. Genesis 3:22. Adam and Eve. They're kicking back in the garden of Eden and boom, they get an eviction notice. Why is that? "Lest they should also take of the tree of life, eat and live forever." A definitive Yahweh no-no. Be good to yourself, go out and plant a wet one on a tree. [Dr. Thomas Fuller] Quote:First weigh the considerations, then take the risks. [Herodotus] Quote:Since a politician never believes what he says, he is quite surprised to be taken at his word. [Charles De Gaulle] Quote:The quality of mercy is not strain'd, <br>It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven <br>Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest: <br>It blesseth him that gives and him that takes. <br>'T is mightiest in the mightiest: it becomes <br>The throned monarch better than his crown; <br>His sceptre shows the force of temporal power, <br>The attribute to awe and majesty, <br>Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings; <br>But mercy is above this sceptred sway, <br>It is enthroned in the hearts of kings, <br>It is an attribute to God himself; <br>And earthly power doth then show likest God's, <br>When mercy seasons justice. Therefore, Jew, <br>Though justice be thy plea, consider this, <br>That in the course of justice none of us <br>Should see salvation: we do pray for mercy; <br>And that same prayer doth teach us all to render <br>The deeds of mercy. [William Shakespeare] Quote:Hollywood is a place where people from Iowa mistake each other for stars. [Fred Allen] Quote:You can take all the sincerity in Hollywood, place it in the navel of a firefly and still have room enough for three caraway seeds and a producer's heart. [Fred Allen] Quote:I love life...Yeah, I'm sad, but at the same time, I'm really happy that something could make me feel that sad. It's like...It makes me feel alive, you know. It makes me feel human. The only way I could feel this sad now is if I felt something really good before. So I have to take the bad with the good. So I guess what I'm feeling is like a beautiful sadness. [Trey Parker and Matt Stone] Quote:It is light grief that can take counsel. [Anonymous] Quote:Faith is a cop-out. If the only way you can accept an assertion is by faith, then you are conceding that it can?t be taken on its own merits. [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider] Quote:We hold in our hands, the most precious gift of all: Freedom. The freedom to express our art. Our love. The freedom to be who we want to be. We are not going to give that freedom away and no one shall take it from us! [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider] Quote:Life is too important to take seriously. [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider] Quote:I guess what I'm trying to say is, I don't think you can measure life in terms of years. I think longevity doesn't necessarily have anything to do with happiness. I mean happiness comes from facing challenges and going out on a limb and taking risks. If you're not willing to take a risk for something you really care about, you might as well be dead. [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider] Quote:[Medicine is] a collection of uncertain prescriptions the results of which, taken collectively, are more fatal than useful to mankind. [Napoleon Bonaparte] Quote:I won't take my religion from any man who never works except with his mouth. [Carl Sandburg] Quote:The killing was the best part. It was the dying I couldn't take.

Stevenson Jr.] Quote:It only takes 20 years for a liberal to become a conservative without changing a single idea. [Robert Anton Wilson] Quote:You can take from every experience what it has to offer you. And you cannot be defeated if you just keep taking one breath followed by another.

Roosevelt] Quote:That's the secret of entertaining. You make your guests feel welcome and at home. If you do that honestly, the rest takes care of itself. [Barbara Hall] Quote:It seems to me that people have vast potential. Most people can do extraordinary things if they have the confidence or take the risks. Yet most people don't. They sit in front of the telly and treat life as if it goes on forever.

You can't sit back and wait.

Schulz] Quote:Perseverance is more prevailing than violence; and many things which cannot be overcome when they are together, yield themselves up when taken little by little.

[Confucius] Quote:After my recent brush with voicelessness, I thought I'd share with you a few thoughts about speech. Don't take it lightly my friends. If music is the pathway to the heart as Voltaire suggested, then speech is the pathway to other people. Live in silence and you live alone. [Henry Bromel] Quote:People who ask our advice almost never take it. Yet we should never refuse to give it, upon request, for it often helps us to see our own way more clearly. [Brendan Francis] Quote:You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do. [Eleanor Roosevelt] Quote:We must as second best...take the least of the evils.
