The end?

Never think you've seen the last of anything

Keep working on it

Religion will not regain its old power
until it can face change
in the same spirit as does science.
Its principles may be eternal,
but the expression of those principles
requires continual development.

        Alfred North Whitehead, Science and the Modern World

 

 

 

 

Poem: April Rain Song

Let the rain kiss you
Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops
Let the rain sing you a lullaby
The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk
The rain makes running pools in the gutter
The rain plays a little sleep song on our roof at night
And I love the rain.

                Langston Hughes

 

 

 

 

 

Make it count

I should dearly love that the world should be ever so little better for my presence. Even on this small stage we have our two sides, and something might be done by throwing all one's weight on the scale of breadth, tolerance, charity, temperance, peace, and kindliness to man and beast. We can't all strike very big blows, and even the little ones count for something.

        Arthur Conan Doyle, The Stark Munro Letters

 

 

 

 

 

Nothing artificial about it

Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.

        Terry Pratchett, Hogfather

 

 

 

 

Play ball

Didn't come up here to read. Came up here to hit.

Enough

Somebody once said we never know
    what is enough until we know
        what's more than enough.

                Billie Holiday, Lady Sings the Blues
