“In the midst of hopes and cares, of apprehensions and of disquietude, regard every day that dawns upon you as if it was to be your last; then super-added hours, to the enjoyment of which you had not looked forward, will prove an acceptable boon.” IfsLifeCareLastsHoursProveRegardDawnEnjoymentMidstAcceptableApprehensionBoon Author:Horace
“I like to summarize what I regard as the pedestal-smashing messages of Darwin's revolution in the following statement, which might be chanted several times a day, like a Hare Krishna mantra, to encourage penetration into the soul: Humans are not the end result of predictable evolutionary progress, but rather a fortuitous cosmic afterthought, a tiny little twig on the enormously arborescent bush of life, which, if replanted from seed, would almost surely not grow this twig again, or perhaps any twig with any property that we would care to call consciousness.” IfsHumansLittlesSoulEndsMightCareGrowsResultsConsciousnessProgressRevolutionMessagesRegardPropertyFollowingSeedsTinyStatementsCosmicPredictableKrishnaMantrasPedestalEnd ResultsHaresSmashingTwigsPenetrationAfterthoughtFortuitousHare Krishna Author:Stephen Jay Gould
“It is when physicians are bogged down by their incomplete technologies, by the innumerable things they are obliged to do in medicine when they lack a clear understanding of disease mechanisms, that the deficiencies of the health-care system are most conspicuous. If I were a policy-maker, interested in saving money for health care over the long haul, I would regard it as an act of high prudence to give high priority to a lot more basic research in biologic science.” IfsGivingLongCareUnderstandingTechnologyClearPolicyDiseaseResearchRegardMedicinePrioritiesSavingHealth CareMakersMechanismPhysiciansPrudenceObligedIncompleteSaving MoneyDeficiencyHaulHealth Care SystemLong HaulPolicy MakersBasic Research Book:A Long Line of Cells Collected Essays Source: A Long Line of Cells Collected Essays
“Virtue is not a mushroom, that springeth up of itself in one night when we are asleep, or regard it not; but a delicate plant, that groweth slowly and tenderly, needing much pains to cultivate it, much care to guard it, much time to mature it, in our untoward soil, in this world's unkindly weather.” WorldCarePainNightVirtueThis WorldRegardPlantWeatherSoilMatureDelicateOne NightMushrooms Book:The works of Dr. Isaac Barrow Source: The works of Dr. Isaac Barrow

“Men swagger around calling themselves "cattlemen" but abuse their grass like a rapist. And abuse their cattle with concrete fecal feedlots without any regards to rumen function. Vegetable growers plow thousands of acres, planting monocrops of annuals in a never-ending tillage routine that totally annihilates carbon wealth. Why? Why are we so enamored of things that destroy carbon and disrespect the animals under our care? Grass. Lowly grass. It just gets no respect. And yet it is the lifeblood of the planet.” MenCareWealthAnimalPlanetsCallingAbuseFunctionRegardPlantGrassRoutineVegetablesConcreteCarbonDisrespectCattleNever EndingAnnualsAcresSwaggerNo RespectEnamored Author:Joel Salatin
“I do feel like I owe something, but not to the industry. When you say "industry," I think of a group of people who don't really care much about you and treat you as a commodity. So, in that regard, I don't feel like I owe anything. But the people who've always been supportive of me and have always seen me for my greatest potential-those are the people who I feel like I owe something to. I feel like I am their voice. I owe it them to represent them in a way that they can be proud of.” PeopleThinkingWayFeelsCareVoiceGroupsIndustryProudTreatsRegardCommodityBe ProudSupportive Author:Alicia Keys
