“It's no overstatement to say how good a soup is hinges entirely on the quality of the soup stock it uses. What on earth is this?! A flavor this rich and savory is a sign of high-quality stock! Where did you get this, kid?! I know there isn't a scrap of kelp or bonito or anything you could make stock from our kitchen!"
"Oh, that? I just happened to have some on hand."
"You made soup stock from cuttlefish jerky?!"
"Dried foods like jerky are filled to bursting with savory flavor. Just soak them in hot water and use a little bit of salt to even out the flavor... and you'll have a stock that can be a solid base for any rich and flavorful soup!”

“It’s no secret that kids thrive when they have meaningful conversations with caring adults.
But in our busy world, it’s not easy to find ways to make this happen, so I developed READ
TOGETHER/DO TOGETHER™ to help parents and grandparents create those magic moments.”
“It’s no secret that we all live within a damning illusion called denial. We are doomed by our own far-reaching imaginations and beliefs that extend into a glorified version of eternity. How are we to live sanely on the earth, with our heads in the clouds, when we are so far from being giants? How are we to claim higher ideals, when God is absent from the conversations in our minds?
There can be no going back, once we’ve believed in perfection. We are slain by the stories we were taught as children, stories about Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and a God who cares.
We pass these heirlooms to our children with the same fervor with which they were delivered, never allowing ourselves to doubt their authenticity or value.
I wondered what the view held outside the proverbial slaughterhouse. For a spiritually awakened person, a good God seems the only reasonable answer. If there’s no eternal good, then what would be the use of life?
Man lays the tracks of good and evil before the train of his evolution, moving onward into places he barely understands”
“It's no small matter to cross an ocean,"Chagall said. "More can be lost than canvas and paint. An artist must bear witness, Monsieur Fry. He cannot turn away, even if he wished to."

“It’s no surprise that small romances began to bubble up throughout the lab. At the time, it seemed to make sense. It wasn’t long before our working together in such close proximity, together with the general excitement of the task at hand, led to lingering glances over calorimeters, colleagues leaning in to share the dual eyepieces on comparison microscopes, the sudden, accidental brush of hands simultaneously attempting to adjust the needle valves of Bunsen burners. When we examined some of the pollen we found in Loeka’s colon, it turned out the cells within the pollen were still intact, which meant that Loeka’s death could be placed sometime during the spring. Spring!”

“It’s no surprise why we are depressed. Everyday we are being emotionally blackmailed by those who want to take advantage of us or who want us to side with them. Sometimes we are even emotionally being blackmailed in believing having fun , enjoying yourself and being happy is a bad thing. Having sex makes you a bad person and not having sex makes you a good person. Being in a relationship or marriage means you a loser, weak, vulnerable, stupid, dependent, desperate person who can't sustain themselves and being single means you are strong, independent , smart, intelligent, hard working and a successful person. Which is not true. It is all about your character traits as a person if whether you are good person or not. Stop being hard on yourself, because you want people to think you are a good person and you end up avoiding doing things that matters in your life. Stop suffering from good girl or boy syndrome. Stop seeking validation when you know what is best for you. Don’t be afraid to experience because you are afraid you will make mistakes. If you make mistakes learned from them. Just live your life and be yourself.”

“It's not a crime to offend others; in fact, it's pretty much a natural consequence of having diverse cultures. We live in a world full of people with different backgrounds, interests, and values, and we must learn to accept that there will be clashes. As long as the differences do no harm, we should back off and accept them.”
“It’s not a crime to wish for other worlds. You’ll get taxed for it but they can’t throw you in jail for creating your own private world…yet. Dramatics are fun, an indulgence. ‘You can’t go backward,’ ‘You can’t live in the past,’ they tell you. Why not? ‘You’ve got to put all that behind you and move on to other things,’ they say. Bullshit! These are all expressions of modern disposability. It’s a mediocritizing technique—trying to get rid of what I call ‘past orthodoxies.’ It’s our past that makes us unique, therefore it’s our past that economic interests want to rob from us, so they can sell us a new, improved future. Society now depends on a disposable world—out with the old, in with the new, including relationships. But how we weep and wish we could hold onto those cherished moments forever, to those long-whispered dreams, those tortured nights—how we want to grasp them and stop them from sifting through our fingers. I say, ‘Don’t let it happen. Keep things the way you want them and let the rest of the world be duped.”

“It’s not a day we have to seize, it’s an era. We need a revolution, not a sticking plaster over a gaping wound. As Nietzsche said, we must revalue all values. We must redefine capitalism and change it from free-market capitalism (designed to serve globalists), to social capitalism (designed to serve all the citizens of the nation). We need to remove the plutocratic boot from the neck of democracy. We must seek to build a true meritocracy in a society free of monarchs, dynastic families, privilege, inheritance, cronyism and nepotism.”
