Quote Left We always compare our labor with its results. We do not devote more effort to a given task if we can accomplish it with less; nor, when confronted with two toilsome tasks, do we choose the greater. We are more inclined to diminish the ratio of effort to result, and if, in so doing, we gain a little leisure, nothing will stop us from using it, for the sake of additional benefits, in enterprises more in keeping with our tastes. Man's universal practice, indeed, is conclusive in this regard. Always and everywhere, we find that he looks upon toil as the disagreeable aspect, and on satisfaction as the compensatory aspect, of his condition. Always and everywhere, we find that, as far as he is able, he places the burden of his toil upon animals, the wind, steam, or other forces of Nature, or, alas! upon his fellow men, if he can gain mastery over them. In this last case, let me repeat, for it is too often forgotten, the labor has not been lessened; it has merely been shifted to other shoulders. Quote Right

Quote Left "You can achieve the universal goal of spreading love and positive inspiration through small, daily actions." - Katheliyer Quote Right

Quote Left I ran a poem of mine through AI just for analysis, not to change or improve anything -- the opinion was frightening. Better than any person I have encountered, as if this thing was inside my head. The next generation really does have something to worry about. We are dinosaurs my friends -- hope our bones will retain truth enough to inspire when we are gone, to be really read as they are dug up and carefully dusted, by facsimiles of living souls. Quote Right
Quote Left "I own nothing and owe nothing to anyone. Am I liberated or still the thought of liberation is holding me back?" Quote Right

Quote Left We belong to the last generation that will make intellectually significant contributions. After that, the best to be hoped for is 'Not bad, for a human.' But then, if computers had to run on million year old technology, they wouldn't do so well either. Quote Right

Quote Left Warfare is the malignant use of directed energy. Inter-stellar warfare favors the defense, because an intrenched inhabitant has an enormous energy advantage over an approaching invader. So inter-stellar government will probably be federation or feudalism. Quote Right

Quote Left I am very poor at small talk. Language, people interaction needs gusto, deep commitment or it is a waste of precious time. Life has so much more to offer. Why there is true poetry. Not talking cute rhymes and mere flashy alliteration. Quote Right
Quote Left How old is the earth? Just take the past 5,000 years, how far technically man has come...follish to think we are the first great (so called civilization) -- when the bible talks of creation, timelines, much is spiritual truth, applying to many generations even civilizations. Yes, man will fall again, and again, and again. Till we get right with God. Not a one of us, has ever left this world for long. We are dead...and death will repeat over and over. Few know it. Part of the problem. Quote Right

Quote Left The W's of my life: Worship-Sunday Work-M-F, Writing-When inspiration hits Walmart and Walk Through-er -Saturday Quote Right
Quote Left When I say the word 'trolls' I don't mean just the people in public who chuck bricks at windows. Also talking about the ones who do it when you turn around. They have a pencil sharpened that says 'empathetic oath' - it becomes a shiv if you catch them throwing rocks. Turns out sticks and stones absolutely will hurt you, if they're lies about you told to everyone else and they are ignorant enough to believe it. That fades, along with your responsibilities. Liberation through betrayal. Quote Right
Quote Left “Collaboration is a process where two or more souls work together to exchange skills & create something new. It is not a process whereby a Poet enlists the skills of another Poet, who is obviously more talented, to upgrade her-his poem in order to win a contest or be listed as best poem. This is dishonesty on part of personalities involved. It is much worse than enlisting the aid of AI. It is called artistic corruption which will not aid personal or human evolution.” ©GhairoDanielsQuotes Quote Right
Quote Left "Don't try to coerce respect through intimidation or obsequiousness - these strategies undermine self-worth and lead to frustration. Authentic respect cannot be compelled; it stems from others' own judgments and choices. Instead of trying to control others' behavior, focus on self-respect and upholding your own standards of integrity. Lead by example through principled and rational responses that speak for themselves. By doing so, you'll maintain personal power and demonstrate true character." Quote Right

Quote Left "When faced with criticism or disrespect, pause and review the feedback rationally, setting aside emotions. Ask yourself if there's truth to the words, and consider whether there's room for improvement or virtues to cultivate. Even if the delivery is harsh, be open to the usefulness of the message. By handling feedback thoughtfully, you can separate the valuable insights from the negativity and use them as opportunities for growth." Quote Right
