Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend. ~ Albert Camus
You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life. ~ Albert Camus
To have faith in God is not only to think that He will be good for you. He could also be disastrous. He'll do as he pleases. That's the only genuine faith in God. My prayer is not my faith. ~ C A Cafolini

There we were, hundreds of us lined up, waving at the great man as he tipped his hat to us. And that is the extent of my acquaintance with Albert Einstein. ~ Gregory Peck
I loved the subtlety of this one. The retard was not of any further interest to Greg.

Art is vice. You don't marry it legitimately, you rape it. ~ Edgar Degas
No art is less spontaneous than mine. What I do is the result of reflection and the study of the great masters. ~ Edgar Degas
One must do the same subject over again ten times, a hundred times. In art nothing must resemble an accident, not even movement. ~ Edgar Degas
There are many ways of being insane, but one of the most general ones I have seen is doing the same thing over and over, expecting, each time, different results. ~ C A Cafolini
I think, since I can remember lucidely, I was always a Buddha (the one who no longer needs to reincarnate, live or die, being now in Nirvana). But because I don't think miracles are involved in being a Buddha, I choose to be a warrior for democracy in order to preserve the possibility of being a Buddha. ~ C A Cafolini
The following is a well-meant, very ironic quote from Richard Gere. The venerables cannot be hurt by it. Neither do I. Somehow we are called to protect Nepal.
Maybe the Dalai Lama is the only person who is totally honest, and even with him, he's skillful not to hurt anybody. He's skillful. ~ Richard Gere
I like this two quotes:
- If the theory is different from the parctice, let's change the practice! Enstein.
- If you thing you can or you cant, you're both right - Henry Ford.
Einstein's position is one of a retard. Nothing to do with Henry, who's idea includes Einstein's retardation. Henry doesn't come from theory. Einstein was so utterly stupid that when they offered him the presidency of Israel, he said: Sorry, but politics is everchanging, while an equation is eternal. And he didn't accept on those grounds. He continue wasting his days trying to find the Unified Field Theory which, any scientist knew upfront as an idiocy.
Henry was talking about belief and knew that you can believe whatever you please and act upon it, while Einstein was so retarded that he actually thought his was much more than a belief.
Apart from Meade, who was key to the northern triumph at Gettysburg, the other great general was Sherman. He understood beyond the shadow of a doubt that civilians are the fuel of progress when inclined in that direction. So he destroyed all the southerners he could. Close to the end, Atlanta was no more. Bob Lee was not that great, but to duty. He would have never been a confederate had he not been from Virginia. Against Meade, although the latter's episode was shortlived, Lee gambled his soldiers and had to run away. He might have had bravery with character, but not enough to be a great general, no matter how famous he might have been. He was a good husband and father. That much I give him. It might be enough for what he truly loved apart from duty. ~ C A Cafolini
