He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying.
Friedrich Nietzsche

As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives.
Henry David Thoreau

All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

To free a person from error is to give, and not to take away.
Arthur Schopenhauer

Cause and effect are two sides of one fact.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Every known fact in natural science was divined by the presentiment of somebody, before it was actually verified.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Be true to your work, your word, and your friend.

Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see.

The fundament upon which all our knowledge and learning rests is the inexplicable.

I cannot believe in a God who wants to be praised all the time.

Insanity in individuals is something rare - but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.
Friedrich Nietzsche

How does it become a man to behave towards the American government today? I answer, that he cannot without disgrace be associated with it.
Henry David Thoreau

The reason is we continue to allow our Three Monkey Societies to exist. That makes my country and most other societies, by inspection, insane. As citizens we must understand that how to reform our governments is by eliminating 3MS leaders from them asap. That is the only way to create an honest civilization of equals and, for certain, continuing life on Earth. We take control of our leaders or we all die.
