Quote collection:Each man is a god. Each man is free. Man is free. Man is master of himself. Every year of my life I grow more and more convinced that the wisest and best is to fix our attention on the good and the beautiful, if you just take the time to look at it. I'm deeply plagued with regret when I am forced to destroy. Say yes to self-empowerment. Say no to enabling others. Tidy in the morning. Tidying is about objects. Cleaning is about dirt and dust.Don't go to the hardware store for milk. Be thankful for what you have and you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you'll never have enough. The most improper job of any man is bossing other men. Not one in a million is fit for it, least of all those who seek the opportunity. Punishment is necessary. Punishment is good. Punishment is absolute.It's you against the world. You won't win. But you get to make your moves, not them. You can not dream yourself into a character. You must hammer and forge yourself into one. Life's a banquet. Don't go thirsty but don't get drunk. Give yourself time. Ideas will come. Life'll shake you, roll you, maybe embrace you. You have no idea how many people would love to have what you've got. Technology can either be used as a tool of human empowerment and creativity or repression and control by the state and big corpos. Conformity, consolidation, and passive consumption are bad. Tinkering, customization, and individuality are good.

@heavens_feelAlthough misused (Thoreau was Unabomber/10):The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation. What is called resignation is confirmed desperation.And from Heinlein:Anyone who cannot cope with mathematics is not fully human. At best he is a tolerable sub-human who has learned to wear shoes, bathe, and not make messes in the house.
