As in a dark beginning of all things,
A mute featureless semblance of the Unknown
Repeating for ever the unconscious act,
Prolonging for ever the unseeing will,
Cradled the cosmic drowse of ignorant Force

And all man’s ghastly company of fears
Are born of folly that believes this span
Of brittle life can limit immortal man.

The soul can only receive impulses from another soul, and from nothing else. To quicken the spirit, the impulse must come from another soul. This quickening impulse cannot be derived from books. The person from whose soul such impulse comes is called the Guru — the teacher.
Our ideal of patriotism proceeds on the basis of love and brotherhood and it looks beyond the unity of the nation and envisages the ultimate unity of mankind.

Take a great musician; well, even with a wretched piano and missing notes, he will produce something beautiful; but give him a good piano, well-tuned, and he will do something still more beautiful.

As plant-life contains in itself the obscure possibility of the conscious animal, as the animal-mind is astir with the movements of feeling and perception and the rudiments of conception that are the first ground for man the thinker…

Hace hoy 105 años nació la poeta Gloria Fuertes, que definió de esta manera la palabra «biblioteca»:
«Es una segunda casa para las personas que leen libros. Dentro de una biblioteca se cura la ignorancia, los libros son para la mente como las tiritas para las heridas».
"Never, never be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well-being of a person or animal is at stake. Society's punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way." Martin L King
“Nunca, nunca tengas miedo de hacer lo correcto, especialmente si el bienestar de una persona o animal está en juego. Los castigos de la sociedad son pequeños en comparación con las heridas que infligimos a nuestra alma cuando miramos para otro lado”.
Martin Luther King

Gracias @feliciano_lopez por ser el mejor comentarista hoy. Al fin había un comentarista que les explicó a los demás la perspectiva más cercana a la verdad.
SCIENCE:
If you don't make mistakes, you're doing it wrong.
If you don't correct those mistakes, you're doing it really wrong.
If you can't accept that you're mistaken, you're not doing it at all.
Soul in the Ignorance, wake from its stupor.
Flake of the world-fire, spark of Divinity,
Lift up thy mind and thy heart into glory.
Sun in the darkness, recover thy lustre.

If one were not weak, one would never be violent. Weakness and violence are two things that go together.
He who is truly strong is never violent. Violence is always a sign of a weakness somewhere.
