All too often we ignore this symbiotic pact, and mindlessly dispose of seeds to fates that have no possible future.”

Keep jumping around them like monkeys.
The clones,
Commercialized zombies,
And the TV junkies.
Keep throwing berries,
Twigs,
And nuts at them.
Until they wake up
To see what's up
And figure out why
We're laughing at 'em.”

“Frumuseţea naturii nu trebuie să simpatizeze numaidecat cu omul.
Punctul lui de vedere că nisipul este un rebut al stării staţionare nu era nebunie... un fluid de 1/8 mm... o lume a cărei existenţă era o serie de stări succesive.
Cu alte cuvinte, frumuseţea nisipului aparţinea morţii.
Frumuseţea morţii marca măreţia ruinelor lui şi marea-i putere de distrugere.”

The princess was so unsteady that she required the help of two maids and a knight of the Kingsguard to get her safely back to her own apartments.”

“Frustrated? Yes. Why? Because it is impossible for me to be God — or the universal woman-and-man — or anything much. I am what I feel and think and do. I want to express my being as fully
as I can because I somewhere picked up the idea that I could justify my being alive that way.”

“frustration has flared up over the Common Core initiative, involving the implementation of national reading and maths standards for primary and secondary school children. The Gates Foundation played a central role in bringing the standards to fruition. Spending over $233 million to back the standards, the foundation dispersed money liberally to both conservative and progressive interest groups. The two major teachers' unions, the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers, each received large donations, as did the US Chamber of Commerce. Gates himself suggested that a benefit of the standards is that they open avenues towards increasing digital learning. In 2014, Microsoft announced it was partnering with Pearson to load Pearson's Common Core classroom material onto Microsoft's Surface tablet. Previously, the iPad was the classroom frontrunner; the Pearson partnership helps to make Microsoft more competitive.”
