It is heavenly when you are clean,

and then you go dirty.

The scientist does not study nature because it is useful;

he studies it because he delights in it,
and he delights in it because it is beautiful.
If nature were not beautiful,
it would not be worth knowing,
and if nature were not worth knowing,
life would not be worth living.

(Jules Henri Poincare)

Thought is before action

slow is before fast
delicate is before strong
less is before more

Nature abhors gradients?

it also loves them
it first builds
and then rides them

(A reply to the theme of the book Into The Cool by Schneider and Sagan)

I don't mind being a whore

I just don't want to be a cheap whore

(Cory Doctorow)

The force

Luke: Is the dark side stronger?
Yoda: No, no, no. Quicker, easier, more seductive.
Luke: But how am I to know the good side from the bad?
Yoda: You will know... when you are calm, at peace, passive. A Jedi uses the Force for knowledge and defense, never for attack.

The North Wind Doth Blow

And we shall have snow,
And what will poor robin do then?
Poor thing!

He'll sit in a barn,
And keep himself warm,
And hide his head under his wing.
Poor thing!

(An anon nursery rhyme)

Future can be a wonderful place,

if you open your heart and mind to it.

Embrace your boredom,

it is your soul's yearning for freedom.

The more boundless your vision,

the more real you are.

(Deepak Chopra, in Life After Death)

(My mother's messege from Ankara for my coming 50th this year. An anonymous Tatar poem. Latin letters don't really match the sounds.)

Shahadah, Salat, Sawm, Zakat, Hajj

Higgs, Light, Strong, Weak, Gravity
Touch, See, Taste, Smell, Hear

We don't remember the early childhood

because we are built on top it's ruins

The mind is like muscle

action tightens
anti-action relaxes
non-action prepares
in the rhythm of the owner

My thoughts used to be on my feet

then they rose to my dick
now they are in my head
where next?

You are more than popular

you are the purest and lowest common denominator

(Futurama)

I don't want a kimono darling

all I want is you

(From a Japanese song)

Outer pomp reflects inner dump

What you give is yours forever

what you keep is lost forever

(Quran?)

Causality reflects anti-causality

and locality reflects universality

at non-causality and non-locality
the mirror of nothingness
