I love the desert. The people who inhabit it, an old desert rat myself -- and the creatures that survive in such a challenging environment. Not so estranged from kids growing up in poverty on the streets of New York. All elements of creation have more in common than differences. Sorry Gleick, you are wrong.

Although these terms may often imply some parity, their common and shared roots, may separate and turn them astray. For example, genius and wisdom both involve the intellect, yet can be sadly independent and distinct in their own way.

Life and joy have one thing in common
Neither one is explainable
even if one is a bowl of something
and the other, a saucepan.

If we take a closer look at the common business terms, 'risk or return', they might easily be replaced by loss or gain. Going further, these borders may at times be redefined, until their naked truth is shown;
that of pleasure or pain.

I can envision some day in the future, where 3-D printers are a common 'appliance' in every home. The real question is, does it belong in the kitchen, bathroom, living room, or maybe the garage? Well, I suppose it's hard to know everything.

A man who seeks wisdom is one of honor, but a man who lacks common sense is a disaster to himself

Understanding reality and our existence rests upon physics and what is observed. Now while quantum theory and general relativity don't seem to play well together, it's hoped that the material and the ethereal can eventually be joined into a common-law marriage, with a lasting union simple enough to predict.

If mankind is to survive and flourish, it must rid itself of petty hatreds, whether racial, ethnic, cultural, or political, and realize that through the multitude of diversity and difference, a reservoir of commonality is far greater than all the conflicts we endure.

Common sense is wisdom... in the shallow end of the pool.

Wisdom without common sense is like writing with a pen without ink

One important factor when we observe a common flight . . . is it seen to be rising, or falling quickly out of sight?
|
God gave to man free will, carrying with it the power of choice, leading to differing views becoming the common framework of mankind.
Nowhere in this creation, did it speak of imposing one's will upon another ( that was man's alone ), thus destroying the origin and ideal. The challenge lies with gathering these strands of diversity that can be woven into a tapestry that endures beyond a single thread. This fabric of humanity is the remnant to survive.

I find that the most intelligent folks don't apply commonsense but stick to unconventional rules.

...one day we all die, we all must leave something of our love behind for those who need our love the most ... time is a precious commodity, stolen and squandered by the injustices and untruths of life.

i'm minoring in history,

White in the shadows
I see your face,
unbidden. Go, tell
Love it is commonplace;
tell Regret it is not so rare.
Our love is not here
though you smile,
full of sedulous grace.
Lost in darkness, I fear
the past is our resting place.

The defendant was a poet held in many iron restraints
against whom several critics cited numerous complaints.
They accused him of trying to reach the 'common crowd,'
and they said his poems incited recitals far too loud.

Time is the most precious commodity one can ever possess. Give much thought to how, where, when, and with whom you choose to spend it. Once spent, never regained.

Public service should be a shared and limited commodity with regard to long term appointments.

Goodness is always doubted. Commonly known as shrewdness, cleverness and show off.
But we instantly and willingly believe negative gossips about others, we don't seek any justification and clarification on such feed backs.. Why?

If you want to be considered intelligent
