“there is a danger, when thinking of the earliest civilized people, of putting too much emphasis on technology. One tends to assume that if you don't have, at least, a lavatory and perhaps something that will take you a lot faster than your own feet, or a certain number of gadgets in the house, then you must be in some way, a bit backward and defective ... the important thing to remember is that technology is not necessarily the same thing as civilization.” PeopleIfsThinkingWayImportantRememberCertainHouseBitsNumbersTechnologyToo MuchFeetDangerCivilizationImportant ThingsAssumingFasterCivilizedEmphasisGadgetsDefective Author:Jacquetta Hawkes

“Because the results are expressed in numbers, it is easy to make the mistake of thinking that the intelligence test is a measure like a foot ruler or a pair of scales. It is, of course, a quite different sort of measure. Intelligence is not an abstraction like length and weight; it is an exceedingly complicated notion - which nobody has yet succeeded in defining.” ThinkingDifferentCoursesEasyResultsNumbersMistakeFeetTestsWeightNotionComplicatedScalesPairsLengthRulersAbstractionDefining Author:Walter Lippmann
“It is doubtful that the dissection of living animals and plants could be done by those who believe them to be holy. A pantheist would not view trees as so many board feet in the manner a Christian would. A pantheist would be less likely to measure the number of acre feet coming over a waterfall than his Christian descendent, centuries later who had become a scientist. That which is sacred would be handled with a certain reverence.” BelieveDoneWould BeChristianCertainAnimalViewsNumbersTreeFeetCenturyHolyScientistSacredPlantEnvironmentalBoardsReverenceStewardshipDoubtfulAcresWaterfallsDissection Author:Wes Jackson

“Clearly we're in historic times here. We have - one of the tributaries of the Mississippi River is a river called the Merrimack. And the crest areas there - they're going to be a number of feet, 2, 3, 4, over what they were in '93 or '82. And on the Mississippi River itself, down below St. Louis, we're still projecting a couple of feet over that historic number. So the bottom line is there's a significant amount of water that's causing evacuations and challenges throughout that whole area.” StillsWholeWaterChallengesLinesNumbersFeetAmountCoupleAreasRiversBottomSignificantHistoricBottom LineMississippiMississippi RiverEvacuation Author:Jay Nixon

“You can remain in the world for any number of years, but don't let the world take hold. Don't let the world take hold of the inside world. There is the example of the lotus. It stays deep down in the mud. It comes up to the light, and it can't stay without water because it would die. But it does not get mixed up either with the mud or the water. You have seen the lotus; even if the water comes it just goes off again. Now, when they talk of God, they always say 'the lotus eyes, the lotus feet' because of this inner significance.” IfsWorldYearsDoeLightEyeDiesWaterNumbersFeetExampleCome UpSignificanceMudDeep DownLotuses Author:Sathya Sai Baba
