-- for the love of God

for the love of God

please post some thoughtful quote or reflection, idiom, that you've recently come across or entertained in your minds.

After purchasing this art poster:



...and being quite fond of it, I decided to read up on the artist, namely, Asher Brown Durand. His remark about nature is indelible, beautiful.

To quote Wiki: Durand wrote, "Let [the artist] scrupulously accept whatever [nature] presents him until he shall, in a degree, have become intimate with her infinity...never let him profane her sacredness by a willful departure from truth."

Best quote I've heard in a while:

'Never argue with an idiot. Not only will they drag you down to their level... but they will easily beat you with experience.'

Fine words and an insinuating appearance are seldom associated with true virtue.

My favorite is something along the lines of:

"Better to keep your mouth closed and be thought a fool then to open it and remove all doubt."

I used to eat a lot of natural foods until I learned that most people die of natural causes.

In the 60's, people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.
