“Mmmm...the tide may drown a sleeping fisherman, a brother or a sister, or carry her unawares out to sea, but it does not do so with malice or design. And even if we hate it, how shall we harm it? How to exercise our hatred? With high walls or thundering engines? How? Do you attack the waves when you know that the seas are shifted and governed by a power removed from the Earth and beyond assailing? Trust me, young one. Use the tide, but do not make of it an enemy. If ever the strange intelligence in it could notice you and name you amongst its enemies, you would be undone before you knew any measure of relief.”

“Mmmmmnobaconeggsgottagostore…” She slowly ran her hand down his forearm and gave him a sleepy smile as she sat up. Her eyes remained closed as she rested her hand on his shoulder and before he could realize her intention or even remember his manners and stop her, her mouth was on his in a kiss that was so soft and sweet Alessandro could do nothing but fall into it with her.”

“MMT insists that full employment need not be sacrificed for price stability and that there are many tools available to the policymaker to start thinking about the things that matter – not budgets and accounting ratios, but public health, jobs, and the environment.”

“MMT recognizes that finance is not a limited resource. It is manufactured and created in the act of spending. In the modern world, the exclusive monopoly to issue the currency endows governments with unparalleled spending power. For MMT, that the issuer can spend without technical constraints is a rather trivial observation. What MMT stresses is that taxes and borrowing cannot pre-fund the issuer of the currency, as the currency must be provided before it can be used for tax collections or bond purchases. The substantive question for MMT then is how to deploy this spending power for achieving the two central macroeconomic goals: full employment and price stability.”

“Mnamo mwaka 1957 Rais David Eisenhower wa Marekani (inasemekana) alipewa taarifa usiku mmoja akiwa Washington, D.C., kuhusu chombo cha ajabu kilichoanguka kwenye jangwa la Nevada huko Marekani. Ndani ya chombo kile kulikuwa na ‘aliens’ wawili, nao waliomba kuonana na Eisenhower kuhusu ujumbe waliokuja nao kutoka katika ulimwengu wao.
Bila kuchelewa, Eisenhower alipanda ndege usiku huohuo mpaka Texas. Huko alichukua gari hadi kwenye eneo la kijeshi liitwalo Area 51, ambapo ndipo ule ujumbe wa ulimwengu mwingine ulipokuwa umeshikiliwa.
Mkutano wa aina yake ulifanyika chini ya ardhi, kati ya Rais Eisenhower na hao viumbe wawili wa anga za mbali, chini ya tafsiri ya wanasayansi wa NASA. Walichotaka ni urafiki na dunia yetu, inayogombewa na dunia nyingi za ‘aliens’, kwa mbadala wa teknolojia kadha wa kadha ambazo sisi hatukuwa nazo.
Pande zote mbili zilifikia maafikiano, wao wakitupa teknolojia, sisi tukiwapa uwezo wa kufanya majaribio ya kisayansi kwa binadamu wa dunia nzima. Hivyo kuanzia hapo ‘aliens’ wakawa na uhalali wa kuteka watu katika mazingira ya kutatanisha na kuingilia watu usiku wakiwa wamelala, katika tukio la kiulimwengu wa roho lijulikanalo kama ‘sleep paralysis’.
‘Sleep Paralysis’ ni tukio la ajabu. Mtu anapokuwa amelala mwili wake huonekana kufa ganzi, kiasi kwamba anajihisi hawezi hata kunyanyua mkono. Aghalabu hali hiyo inapotokea maana yake ni kwamba ‘aliens’ wanamchukua huyo mtu, kupitia kwenye paa la nyumba aliyolala, hadi mawinguni katika ndege yao. Ndani ya ndege wanaulaza mwili wa binadamu juu ya kitanda cha upasuaji, na kumfanyia upasuaji, ili kusoma biolojia iliyotumika kuumba wanadamu na kujua kwa nini sisi tuko tofauti na wao. Baada ya hapo wanamrudisha huyo mtu kitandani kwake, ambapo atalala usingizi wa kawaida hadi asubuhi. Atakapoamka hatajua kama alifanyiwa upasuaji.
Wapo mamilioni ya watu duniani waliolalamika kutokewa na ‘aliens’, lakini serikali haziwahi kuilithibitisha hilo. Inavyosemekana, teknolojia za ‘aliens’ zinahifadhiwa na Jeshi la Marekani (Pentagon) na shirika la kijasusi la MAJI au MJ12. MJ12 ni watu 12 hatari zaidi duniani, wakiongozwa na mkurugenzi mkuu wa CIA (anayejulikana kama MJ1).”
“Mnemonic devices are a powerful tool in the rapid learning arsenal, aiding memory retention by associating new information with easily recallable elements.”
“Mnemonic devices, or mnemonics, serve as memory aids that enhance the ease of information recall by associating it with familiar and easily remembered elements known as hooks or cues.”
“Mnemonics not only simplify and condense information but also align with rapid learning techniques like chunking, active recall, and self-testing.”
“Mnemosyne had designed Clio to be inquisitive, and her second daughter did not disappoint. No notion went uncontested when Clio was around. Mnemosyne was careful not to dampen her daughter's thirst for knowledge. It was her best asset. Clio would one day teach the world how to appreciate the history of what had come to pass and how to value all that now surrounded them.”

“Mnie Bóg, w życiu moim, nigdy nie był potrzebny - od najwcześniejszego dzieciństwa, ani przez pięć minut - byłem zawsze samowystarczalny. / I have never in my life needed God - from the infancy, since I was 5, I was self-sufficient. (Dziennik 1956, XVIII Niedziela)”
“Mnie się nigdy nie nudzi - odpowiedziałem zgodnie z prawdą. - Zawsze mam coś do roboty, a jak nie do roboty, to do przeczytania, a jak nie do przeczytania, to do przemyślenia. A resztę doby przesypiam.”

“Mnoge ljubavi tek su pokušaji da se osoba zaštiti od nekoga još goreg.”
“Mnogima bi se svidjela da se nisi trudila svidjeti se svima. Znaš, ne treba meni objašnjenje za moj trud, često sam se trudila i na kraju izašla praznih ruku. Pa šta? Ne kajem se. I da mogu ne bi vratila vrijeme, čemu? Meni je dovoljno da se utopim u čaši uspomena. Da nazdravim onima koji su putovali sa mnom, a da to nisu niti znali, da im zahvalim, i da im poželim sreću na njihovom sljedećem putovanju. Kamo – a tko to od nas uopće zna? Kada jednom shvatiš da si zalutao, kao ja, bez karte i cilja, među te ledom optočene zidine od ljudi nema ti druge nego krčiti svoj vlastiti – zid. Jer, teško da ćeš se zagrijati na tim. Zidovima od ljudi.”

“Mo Ran trembled and used all his strength to raise his head. He saw his God riding the dragon, swooping down from the sky. He saw the white clothes of his God, looking like an immortal exiled. As he got closer, the face next to the soaring dragon horn became clear .
Mo Ran's heart suddenly hurt, and it was even more painful than being stabbed by a knife. He saw his God crying, Chu Wanning...he was crying .”

“Mo Ran, why is your face so cold…'
It was as cold as ice.
If I could, I would like to be a torch, waiting for you to turn back at the crossroads of the long winter night. I’m willing to burn my entire life away to light your path home.
But why are you so cold?
I don’t know how long I can burn, but what if when I’m exhausted and burnt out, and if when I’m extinguished, you still walk in the dark and refuse to look back?”

“Mo Sheanmháthair
Ar ais arís lá breá Lúnasa
Canach geosadáin ar foluain
Ar chuile leoithne ghaoithe
Do theach ina sceatraigh
Na cróite ina snaois,
Airím arís ceol na mblianta dearmadta,
Drumadóireacht an bhanna práis
Ag máirseáil síos an bóthar,
Tusa led' sciortaí ardaithe
Ag damhsa ar an screabán
Do sheachtar óg
Náire shaolta fút
Ina bhfál ceilte os do chomhair
Le nach bhfeicfeadh na comharsain
Meidhréis do dhamhsa.”

“Mo Udall didn't want the presidency bad enough. He was too sane. He was a marvelous guy, but you had the feeling there was another Udall outside his body watching the candidate Udall who was too extravagant, telling him to cut it out.”
“Mo Willems was so helpful. I had met him a number of times, and I knew from his books how funny he was, of course, but it was really neat to be able to have his feedback. He's so great with comic timing. Working with him was like taking a master class in comic timing, because he could pinpoint right away if a section wasn't working. I remember him saying once, "No, you need a beat between this page and this page," and it was like, oh yeah, of course. I hadn't seen it, but being so good at what he does, Mo noticed it right away.”
“Mo Xi, for me, the way up is a dead end. I have nowhere to go - I can only fumble toward hell.”

“Moammar Gaddafi, who has called himself the 'Guide of the First of September Great Revolution of the Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya,' should go down in history with the Emperor Bokassa and Idi Amin as a grotesque reminder of why people have the right to change their government.”
“Moammar Gadhafi and the revolt against Gadhafi was not started by the United States. It was started by the Libyan people. And the reason why I argued we needed to get involved is because he was going to go one way or the other. And my argument then was proven true, and that is, the longer that civil war took, the more militias would be formed and the more unstable the country would be after the fact.”
“Moammar Gadhafi had more American blood on his hands than any individual other than Osama bin Laden.”
“Moammar Gadhafi is the man that killed those Americans over Lockerbie, Scotland. Moammar Gadhafi is also the man that bombed that cafe in Berlin and killed those Marines. And you want to know why Moammar Gadhafi started cooperating on his nuclear program? Because we got rid of Saddam Hussein. And so he got scared that he would be next, and that's why he started cooperating.”
“Moammar Gadhafi was found hiding in a storm sewer with a gold-plated gun. That's me in retirement, ladies and gentlemen.”
“Moaning, she melted into my arms and molded her body against mine as if giving me permission to take whatever I yearned for.

The ocean waves crashed against us. That cool water rose up to our knees. All was forgotten in those sweet kisses—lips gliding against lips, wet tongues twisting and exploring, hungry hands and taunting fingers. Fireworks of lust and need exploded inside me.”

“Moara încetase de mult să își mai scrie povestea, dar reminiscențe hoinăreau printre amintiri. Cosânzenele de altădată încă încingeau hora pe cărarea ce ducea către moară. Era atât de multă magie scăldată între razele de soare ce se pierdeau printre crengile prunilor. O bucurie scrisă de intensitatea emoţiilor pe fila timpului, printre petalele pline de culoare ale florilor ce zâmbeau a prospețime. Era viață și voință în fiecare celulă, în fiecare clipă. Și oamenii... Glasurile, cuvintele, accentul, bunăvoința, privirile pline de înțelepciune și blândețe. O lume întreagă, condensată în imagini peculiare, printre secundele realității de odinioară. Și mai era ceva. Era Tihna. Curată și sfântă. Tihna ce își înălta cântecul în surdină, plutind peste toate neputințele lumii, lăsându-și brațele într-o divină îmbrățișare a universului. Pace și liniște. Lumină și împăcare. Așa începeau toate duminicile.”

“Moartea nu este de capul ei, trebuie să respecte regula jocului. Ea nu este un dușman al vieții, ci, paradoxal, un partener al ei. Nu este dimensiunea cea mai mare, ci stă la coadă, după necaz și datorii. Mormântul nu este loc de blestemat, ci de iubit. Este o inversare ontologică fără precedent la alte popoare.”

“Mob guys had muscle, and where in hell do you think employers got the tough guys when they wanted to break a strike?”
“Mob is not the plural of man, he said. We’re dealing with a different species, that has kaleidoscopes in the hollows of the eyes. Where projections of violence keep rotating at increasing velocity. Until the prisms shatter with their own frenzy, & the blinded creature collapses in the rubble it has created.”
