“The man who boldly transgresses, amassing a great heap unjustly--by force, in time, he will strike his sail, when trouble seizes him as the yardarm is splintered. He calls on those who hear nothing and he struggles in the midst of the whirling waters. The god laughs at the hot-headed man, seeing him, who boasted that this would never happen, exhausted by distress without remedy and unable to surmount the cresting wave. He wrecks the happiness of his earlier life on the reef of Justice, and he perishes unwept, unseen.” MenHappensForceWaterJusticeLaughingStruggleSeeingTroubleHe ManHotWaveStrikesMidstRemedySailDistressExhaustedUnseenWrecksReefsHot Headed Author:Aeschylus

“Nobody in America who wants pot has any trouble getting it, so maybe that's why we aren't seeing support for legalization. People don't think it's necessary to legalize it, because it's so easy to get it.” PeopleThinkingWantAmericaEasySupportSeeingTroublePotEasy To Get Author:Bill Maher
“One of the most difficult features of direct experience is that it is unfiltered by any theories or expectations. It's hard to observe without imposing a theory to explain what we're seeing, but the trouble with theories, as Einstein said, is that they explain not only what is observed, but what can be observed. We start to build expectations based on our theories.” SaidHardDifficultSeeingTroubleTheoryExpectationsDirectFeaturesImposing Author:Michael Crichton

“You've got to deal with the world with all of its troubles, while you've still got this alternate image. It's not about being in a different place or being in heaven, it's about seeing the world through magical eyes for a moment, and then being back in that same world, and everything is dull and gray.

“Personally, I never believe an artist saying "I do it for myself" is saying the truth, because why would you go through the trouble of making something that goes out into the world if you didn't care about somebody else seeing it? It's like the difference between those who choose "more comfortably termed entertainment" versus what people think of as the "art life," which is supposedly more monastic or spiritual. I don't believe in those distinctions.” PeopleIfsThinkingWorldBelieveArtCareSpiritualArtistDifferencesSeeingTroubleTruth IsDon't BelieveEntertainmentDistinctionVersusSaying The TruthArt Life Author:Eric Fischl
