Quote by Matt Parker

“It's times like this when the age of the universe becomes a useful unit of measurement: 64-bit Unix time will last until twenty-one times the age of the universe from now - until (assuming we don't manage another upgrade in the meantime) December 4 in the year 292,277,026,596 CE, when all the computers will go down. On a Sunday.”

“In every time of season change: it is #wise to slow down and examine what our ego, thought-habits, and spiritual-energy are communicating to others...our environments. Truth is these thoughts (attitudes that aren't situationally static) are producing real activity, outcomes that shape our existence. Consider the conception of our thoughts, and what they will give birth to beyond the physical...they have an incredible power, with or without our active will, to lift us, sink us or soar us. Consider how we as human beings can be subject to the law enforcement of living under our own thought legislation...Selah.”

“A volte è facile tirarsi fuori dagli impicci lasciando un numero telefonico. E' un po' come rilanciare la palla. Un biglietto da visita o un numero annotato su un pezzo di carta, la sostanza del messaggio è sempre la stessa: "Non mi sento pronto a espormi per te. Vedi di farcela da solo. Ma, per scaricarmi la coscienza, ti do il mio numero.”

“Esse dia foi memorável para mim, pois causou grandes mudanças no meu destino. Mas é assim com todo mundo. Subtraia um determinado dia de sua vida e veja que, sem ele, sua vida teria tomado um rumo diferente. Faça uma pausa por um instante, leitor, e pense na comprida corrente de ferro ou de ouro, de espinhos ou flores, que jamais se lhe estaria ligada, se um certo dia memorável não tivesse formado o primeiro elo dessa corrente.”
