“Link Wray... He was the beginning of Grunge, way before anybody you know.”
“Link yourself to your potential, not to your past.”
“Linked together as a team with one goal, we soon realized we were only as strong as our weakest link. But did we condemn the weaker
member? That wouldn’t serve any purpose. Instead, the stronger guys responded by carrying more weight than the weaker teammate. Encouragement was key in reaching the top of the stadium, standing as one.
Sometimes one person on your team may not be as strong as another. Strengths usually differ. Likewise, in an encounter with another, someone may have a different set of beliefs or ideas.To accomplish any goal, embracing the strengths and weaknesses of each member and compensating where necessary are the best ways to make it to the top.”

“Linnaeus and Cuvier have been my two gods, though in very different ways, but they were mere schoolboys to old Aristotle.”
Source: Life and Letters of Charles Darwin: the Evolution
“Linnaeus had it constantly in mind:'The closer we get to know the creatures around us, the clearer is the understanding we obtain of the chain of nature, and its harmony and system, according to which all things appear to have been created.'”
“Linnaeus’s other striking quality was an abiding — at times, one might say, a feverish — preoccupation with sex. He was particularly struck by the similarity between certain bivalves and the female pudenda. To the parts of one species of clam he gave the names vulva, labia, pubes, anus, and hymen. He grouped plants by the nature of their reproductive organs and endowed them with an arrestingly anthropomorphic amorousness. His descriptions of flowers and their behavior are full of references to “promiscuous intercourse,” “barren concubines,” and “the bridal bed.”

“Linnea.... A plant of Lapland, lowly, insignificant, disregarded, flowering but for a brief space - from Linnaeus who resembles it.”
“Linsey pulled away, smiling in a way that would have made him look almost
angelic if it wasn’t for the blood smeared around his mouth. When he licked his lips clean, the angelic image became clearer. Blood welled up from two small cuts on his bottom lip, pooling in the full sweep his skin. I knew it wasn’t just my blood that I’d tasted.”

“Lintasan hati penggerak keinginan itu ada dua jenis; yang mengajak ke arah kejahatan atau yang membawa kepada akibat yang buruk, dan yang mengajak ke arah kebaikan atau yang mendatangkan manfa'at di akhirat kelak. Kedua-dua lintasan hati ini sangat berbeza di antara satu sama lain dan masing-masing mempunyai namanya yang tersendiri. Lintasan hati yang baik dinamakan ilham, dan lintasan hati yang dikeji dinamakan waswas.
Lintasan-lintasan hati ini adaah berupaya kejadian dan setiap kejadian itu tentu ada yang menjadi dan menyebabkannya. Kejadian-kejadian yang berlainan menunjukkan sebab-sebab yang berlainan pula. Terangnya sesebuah rumah itu tentulah bukan berpunca dari sesuatu yang menyebabkannya menjadi gelap. Begitu juga dengan keadaan terang dan gelapnya hati yang mana sebab kedua-duanya adalah berbeza. Sebab lintasan yang mengajak ke arah keyakinan dinamakan malaikat, dan sebab lintasan hati yang mengajak ke arah kejahatan dinamakan syaitan. Keadaan yang dengannya hati bersedia untuk menerima ilham kebaikan dinamakan taufiq, dan keadaan yang dengannya hati bersedia untuk menerima waswas (bisikan) syaitan dinamakan khazlan (pengecewa).”

“Linux has definitely made a lot of sense even in a purely materialistic sense.”
“Linux has more than satisfied any small initial expectations I had. It's simply incredible how successful Linux has been, and how good a time I've had developing it and leading the project.

“Lion is a beautiful creature. It's a wonderful creature. But it's easy outrage. And I also believe that this kind of outrage is a consequence of a moral cowardice in the face of other evil, that you transfer your impotence about other - in other arenas to this, because you know that people will agree with you that this is really bad, but there are serious outrages out there that are bigger than a lion.”
“Lion Is fearless. Lion is not a survivor But a warrior. Lion Hunt Alone, Not in group. Lion Don't eat leftover, but hunt big. A Lion does not turn around when a small dog Barks. Lion Is the king of the jungle”
“Lion may be admired for courage, strength and tenacity but its life is a living death. Once dispossessed of a pride or injured, it dies very miserably. That a lion, of all its charisma can die so wretchedly emphasizes the fact that death is a great leveler.”

Though courteous to the worst; much falling he
Brooded upon sanctity.”
