Quote Left What I want to fix your attention on is the vast overall movement towards the discrediting, and finally the elimination, of every kind of human excellence -- moral, cultural, social or intellectual. And is it not pretty to notice how 'democracy' (in the incantatory sense) is now doing for us the work that was once done by the most ancient dictatorships, and by the same methods The basic proposal of the new education is to be that dunces and idlers must not be made to feel inferior to intelligent and industrious pupils. That would be 'undemocratic.' Children who are fit to proceed may be artificially kept back, because the others would get a trauma by being left behind. The bright pupil thus remains democratically fettered to his own age group throughout his school career, and a boy who would be capable of tackling Aeschylus or Dante sits listening to his coeval's attempts to spell out A CAT SAT ON A MAT. We may reasonably hope for the virtual abolition of education when 'I'm as good as you' has fully had its way. All incentives to learn and all penalties for not learning will vanish. The few who might want to learn will be prevented who are they to overtop their fellows And anyway, the teachers -- or should I say nurses -- will be far too busy reassuring the dunces and patting them on the back to waste any time on real teaching. We shall no longer have to plan and toil to spread imperturbable conceit and incurable ignorance among men. Quote Right
Quote Left We’ll drink the wine till the cup is dry, and kiss the girls so they’ll not cry, and toss the dice until we fly to dance with Jak o’ the Shadows. We’ll dance all night while the moon runs free, and dandle the lasses upon our knee, and then you’ll ride along with me, to dance with Jak o’ the Shadows. We’ll sing all night, and drink all day, and on the girls we’ll spend our pay, and when it’s gone, then we’ll away, to dance with Jak o’ the Shadows. There’re some delight in ale and wine, and some in girls with ankles fine but my delight, yes, always mine, is to dance with Jak o’ the Shadows. We’ll toss the dice however they fall, and snuggle the girls be they short or tall, then follow young Mat whenever he calls, to dance with Jak o’ the Shadows. Quote Right

Quote Left "Maths is like love, when you get confused you cheat" Quote Right
Quote Left Dating is so important to a long lasting relationship. Get to know the other person really well, it's ok to date for a lengthy period. Consummating a relationship outside of marriage is still a covenant made, in God's eyes. Oxytocin is the bonding drug our bodies create. You are fighting physical and emotional connection when you don't respect the process. There is a lot of therapy gone through because God's program for relationships [or "ships" as the kids say] and marriages are not followed. Quote Right
Quote Left Entropic enigma is analogous to Schrodinger's cat in the box. In this paradigm of thinking, either element hosts an infinite variation of thought, emotional intelligence, and spiritual truth. To surpass these phenomena, one must encompass all these phenomena and gain diverse knowledge. Then, one will experience all of it, knowing that Love is the ultimate power and truth. Here, the box paradox will be realized. Quote Right

Quote Left When loving someone is no longer a choice, You have found the one person that was made for you and only you. Don't take a love like that for granted, no matter how much work has to be put in to it for it to last. Anything perfectly beautiful isn't easily obtained. Quote Right

Quote Left “Exact material gifts cannot replace Love. Only Love can replace Love.” ©GhairoDanielsQuotes Quote Right
Quote Left “ You need an open mind to access imagination. You need imagination to access the enormity of the Divine. Linear life is a mechanism to collapse itself for this need to properly fruit, paradoxical as this may sound. When this occurs, imagination becomes reality and all that seems inanimate becomes animate” ©GhairoDanielsQuotes Quote Right
Quote Left “The more you dive into your imagination, the greater your creativity will become & vice versa. The two is the basis of material life.

It is the power within us that can change the world. ” ©GhairoDanielsQuotes Quote Right
Quote Left Man's ego can turn the best wine into bland water. Just keeping us animate. Quote Right
Quote Left In the absence of proactive measures to abjure the foreseen, to mitigate any risk thereof, actions become reactionary at best, and matters that should lie within the realm of great certainty instead assume the guise of crisis. Quote Right
Quote Left Adversity has a way of bringing everything into focus. A way of distilling what matters from the detritus of our everyday lives. Quote Right
Quote Left No institution can exist that purportedly upholds the rule of law by breaking it. No institution that has become the prime offender of citizens rights can claim to protect them. Experience has shown that governments are not immune to corruption and therefore are bound by necessity, when required, to reformation. Prudence dictates corruption abrogates the ability for self correction and so remedy must be accomplished through external means. Quote Right
Quote Left If you say, life is only for a moment, I respond, it is for a moment, rejecting 'only'. The moment matters. Quote Right
Quote Left Free verse might be defined as a poem designed to encapsulate a person’s musings in a personal, stylised format—serendipity of thoughts meandering towards a decisive conclusion or left unresolved for the reader to mull over. Quote Right
Quote Left Mathematicians keep making the same mistake. Irrational numbers, negative numbers, imaginary numbers, undecidability: what is initially seen as an ugly contradiction is in fact an invitation to deepen our understanding of mathematics, and to see its beauty more fully. Undecidability is the discovery of truth oscillators. Quote Right
Quote Left We know there is a divine realm because mathematics exists. And to those who would say mathematics is a human construction, I respond, you probably haven't done much math. Mathematics is consistently smarter than mathematicians, and its soul is deeper as well. Quote Right
Quote Left In every challenge lies the seed of transformation; the key is not in avoiding difficulties, but in using them to grow stronger and more resilient. Quote Right
Quote Left “Some people prefer raw poems whilst some prefer polished poems. It doesn’t really matter because all poems, like all manifested thought comes from the Godhead. He-She creates without judgment.” ©GhairoDanielsQuotes Quote Right

Quote Left ON PRÉSENCE & AWAKENING “Presence is ungraspable, fleeting. It subsides as soon as it arises. When we wake up, we wake up to Presence. It is unstoppable, our eternal Truth. It matters not what we look like, do or wear - these are conditioned illusions of the mind. In the final analysis we are all presentations of Presence.” Quote Right
Quote Left Forgetting is more sophisticated than remembering. Humans are the animals that mastered abstraction. Abstraction is forgetting what does not matter. Quote Right
Quote Left Although lost to history, one may imagine that the origin of the phrase 'to face the music' is that Scottish military formations placed their musicians in the rear.

Quote Left IF YOU SEE YOURSELF AS A GALACTIC, IT IS NO BIG DEAL. WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN MULTIDIMENSIONAL or GALACTIC. IT IS JUST THAT HUMANS GONE WONKY THROUGH FEAR AND GREED HAVE CREATED MATRICES AT ALL LEVELS OF HUMAN LIFE TO SUPPRESS CREATIVITY. BUT CONSCIOUSNESS WILL NO LONGER ALLOW THIS. HUMAN LIFE MUST NOW COME INTO BALANCE. ALL MUST EXPRESS THEMSELVES WHICHEVER WAY THEY WANT WITHOUT HURTING OR TAKING FROM ANOTHER. Quote Right
Quote Left Engineering is the art of systematically making things boring. When a bridge falls down, that's interesting. When it doesn't fall down, that's engineering. Quote Right
