Quotes of the week_O. J. Simpson

OJ was raised in poverty and his early days were spent in a Ghetto when food was always in short supply. As a result, OJ suffered from malnutrition and developed rickets. At the age of six, OJ's legs became permanently bowed and his calf muscles suffered from severely atrophy. He acquired the nickname of 'Pencil Legs" at an early age.

His idol was Jim brown.But OJ was too poor to afford the tickets to see his idol in action whenever Cleveland visited San Francisco. That never stopped his dream and goal of becoming a star player in the future.

During those games when Cleveland played in San Francisco, OJ would diligently wait outside the stadium until the maintenance crew to open the stadium gates late in the 4th quarter. He would then go into the stadium and soak in the final few minutes of the game, dreaming for seeing his idol

On one of these occasions at the age of thirteen, he finally got his dream of meeting up with his idol, Jim Brown. As the inspirational story went, he approached Brown and said, "Mr. Brown, I am your biggest football fan!" Graciously, Brown thank thanked the young boy and went on his way. But OJ persisted by asking for Brown's autograph. As Brown signed the autograph, OJ related to him how he had all his pictures on his wall, and that he knew all the football records that Brown held. Brown was flattered and thanked his young charge again. Before leaving, OJ surprised Brown by saying, "Mr. Brown, one day, I am going to break every one of your records!"

O.J. Simpson went on to break all but three of the rushing records held by Jim Brown before injuries shortened his football career

• The day you take complete responsibility for yourself, the day you stop making any excuses, that's the day you start to the top.

• I could not tell you the date of my mother's death. I could not tell you the date of my dad's death. These are not dates that I find significant.

• Money takes wings. The only thing that endures is character.

• That's the way blacks have been encouraged to think: that we got to stick together. You've got a situation today where if a black person says he thinks O.J. Simpson's guilty, other blacks will cut their eyes at him and say, 'You ought to go somewhere and sit down and shut up.'

Quotes of the week_Andrew Ryan (Bioshock)

• I am Andrew Ryan, and I'm here to ask you a question. Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his brow? "No," says the man in Washington, "it belongs to the poor." "No," says the man in the Vatican, "it belongs to God." "No," says the man in Moscow, "it belongs to everyone." I rejected those answers; instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose... Rapture. A city where the artist would not fear the censor; where the scientist would not be bound by petty morality; where the great would not be constrained by the small! And with the sweat of your brow, Rapture can become your city as well.

• I once bought a forest. The Parasites claimed that the land belonged to God, and demanded that I establish a public park there. Why? So the rabble could stand slack-jawed under the canopy and pretend that it was paradise earned. When Congress moved to nationalize my forest, I burnt it to the ground. God did not plant the seeds of this Arcadia; I did.

• Even in a book of lies sometimes you find truth. There is indeed a season for all things and now that I see you flesh-to-flesh and blood-to-blood I know I cannot raise my hand against you. But know this, you are my greatest disappointment. Does your master hear me? Atlas! You can kill me, but you will never have my city. My strength is not in steel and fire, that is what the parasites will never understand. A season for all things! A time to live and a time to die, a time to build... and a time to destroy!

• A man chooses. A slave obeys.

• We all make choices, but in the end, our choices make us.

Quotes of the week: lotus_flic

 v Almost all the time the so-called contradictions and dichotomies don’t even exist. Sometimes, the dichotomies are nothing but each other.

 v When you are thinking about something to say, how could you ever say something as long as you don’t’ cease trying to think of something to say.

 v When you try to hit, you have a possibility between 0%-100% to land a hit. When you just hit instead of trying, stats never matter. All possibilities can be screwed with as long as they exist, but decisions cannot be screwed with.

 v McDonald’s and KFC never ruin your health. It’s you who always does that. McDonald’s /KFC are just interfaces for your madness.

 v God wouldn’t kill Satan not because God is all goodie goodie, but because it’s easier to prove that he is the good guy when Satan is around. Maybe the superhero-psychos in Marvel/DC universes are marvelously rational when it comes to “thou shalt not kill the villains” 

Quotes of the week_Zen

One moon shows in every pool

In every pool the one moon

If you cannot find the truth right where you are

Where else do you expect to find it?

The mind of the past is ungraspable

The mind of the future is ungraspable

The mind of the present is ungraspable

The obstacle is the path

Even to speak the word Buddha

is dragging it in the mud soaking wet

Quotes of the week: lotus_flic (non-first person)

Quotes of the week_Matrix

• I'm trying to free your mind, Neo. But I can only show you the door. You're the one that has to walk through it.

• I'd like to share a revelation I've had during my time here. It came to to me when I tried to classify your species, and I realized that you're not actually mammals. You see, every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with their surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You spread to an area, and you multiply, and you multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague, and we, are the cure.

• The answer is out there, Neo, and it's looking for you, and it will find you if you want it to.

• I'm going to show these people what you don't want them to see. I'm going to show them a world.. without you. A world without rules or controls, without borders or boundaries. A world where anything is possible. Where we go from there is a choice I leave to you.

• Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself.

• There is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path.

Quotes of the week: lotus_flic

 v The amount of money people get paid for their jobs are completely fair most of the time. Many low paid jobs just do the work of parrots, dogs, donkeys and horses in a more humane manner. If they were demanded to be creative, they would be killing themselves several times per day.

 v The world is your Disneyland. Do not f@<k with it. Do not get f@<ked because of it.

  

 v Know of the hatred to be something to get scared of. Monsters and demons in horror movies look cute and adorable compared to what your hatred can do to yourself.

 v Life hacks are available in almost every single situation. Using life hacks is like Neo showing off in the Matrix. You don’t have to be pathetic enough to dodge bullets simply because bullets are made to be fast so that they would hurt men/women before they get a chance to dodge.

Quotes of the week: lotus_flic

 v For the one who had conquered thyself, The almighty is not even a bitch.

 v The ones who get shaken by this are called, the bitches of God.

 v Don’t try to free the slaves unless you are a jerk with a death wish. Just break the chains of the ones who are already free.

 v There is no fortress of solitude. Only a fortress of escapism and a Godhood of solitude.

 v Only the ones who are completely unaffected by loneliness can be idiosyncratic amidst of billions.

Quotes of the week: lotus_flic

 v Don’t be happy because something awesome happened. Just enjoy making it happen over and over and over again.

 v When met with problems, the weak people say “why me…”. The strong people say “try me”. The smart one says “not my circus; not my monkeys. Go and F@<K yourself” and they mind their own business.

 v Real ladies are the only species which are not endangered even though there are only very few of them.

Quotes of the week_Seth Godin

• You have everything you need to build something far bigger than yourself.
• When exactly were you brainwashed into believing that the best way to earn a living is to have a job?
• Ideas aren’t a sideshow that make our factory a little more valuable. Our factory is a sideshow that makes our ideas a little more valuable! 
• If you're remarkable, then it's likely that some people won't like you. That's part of the definition of remarkable. Nobody gets unanimous praise -- ever. The best the timid can hope for is to be unnoticed. Criticism comes to those who stand out. Playing it safe. Following the rules. They seem like the best ways to avoid failure. Alas, that pattern is awfully dangerous. The current marketing "rules" will ultimately lead to failure. In a crowded marketplace, fitting in is failing. In a busy marketplace, not standing out is the same as being invisible.
• Cogs see a job, linchpin see a platform. Every interaction, every assignment is a chance to make a change, a chance to delight or surprise or to touch someone.

• People prefer to be busy at choosing lies to accept rather than trying to realize the truth.

Quotes of the week_George Orwell

• Power is not a means, it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.
• The nationalist not only does not disapprove of atrocities committed by his own side, but he has a remarkable capacity for not even hearing about them.

Daily dose or Eternal dose?

Let's say that there is this awesome website you visit everyday for something awesome. You feel a little boost after visiting that site. That's a nice thing. But aren't you going to go any further? Why do you need this daily dose. It's better to have it but do you need it? It's hell a lot fun and satisfying when you figure them out on your own. Don't wait till your awesome blogger or youtuber post the next article/video. Try to figure it out before he/she puts it in the site. On your way you might find something better than your awesome adviser has got in his store.

                                         You don't have to be better than your blogger/youtuber to discover something better. You just need an eternal dose. Not every daily dose is qualified to be an eternal dose. But all eternal doses are just daily doses taken in in a different way. Eternal dose is keeping in touch with a single little thing for your whole life and getting addicted to it. This can give an immense effect through a time of few months/years/decades. For an example, take the idea of being a devil's advocate. Read the post and you'll find it a nice thing to try and good food for thought. Experiencing it will make your day quite remarkable( unless you are a spineless jerk who can't handle anything other than mediocre trash). Then the effects would get faded and you'll find few more daily doses to work your mind on. This is retarded.

                                                                   To me, being the devil's advocate is an eternal dose. I never stop questioning and deconstructing everything I meet to it's very core. This has made my life at least  100 times better in just several years. I can practically humiliate the "me"who was a year ago. That's how I feel about a one year younger me. So don't let the effects of a good boost get faded away. Instead of finding new great advice; make the best out of what you already have. If you stick to one good tip you receive on a random day, your life could change and evolve in an unthinkable way.

                                 Don't go scavenging on tips and tricks. You will stumble upon many. Practice the ones you already have. Even a single paragraph can enlighten you. spend more time with a dose and it'll be a part of your life. Then it is called an eternal dose. Don't worry about missing to watch some videos or articles. When you have spent more time with the good stuff, you'll feel those tips and tricks to be organized versions of your own realization.

Quotes of the week_Osho

• Be realistic: Plan for a miracle.
• Never misunderstand seriousness for sincerity. Sincerity is very playful, never serious. It is true, authentic, but never serious. Sincerity does not have a long face, it is bubbling with joy, radiating with an inner joyousness.
• Spirituality is rebellion; religiousness is orthodoxy. Spirituality is individuality; religiousness is just remaining part of the crowd psychology. Religiousness keeps you a sheep, and spirituality is a lion's roar.
• Nothing kills the ego like playfulness, like laughter. When you start taking life as fun, the ego has to die, it cannot exist anymore.
• Meditation is a surrender, it is not a demand. It is not forcing existence your way, it is relaxing into the way existence wants you to be. It is a let-go.

Quotes of the week_Albert Camus

• Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

• The evil that is in the world almost always comes of ignorance, and good intentions may do as much harm as malevolence if they lack understanding.

Quotes of the week_Friedrich Nietzsche

• The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
• That which does not kill us makes us stronger.
• There are horrible people who, instead of solving a problem, tangle it up and make it harder to solve for anyone who wants to deal with it. Whoever does not know how to hit the nail on the head should be asked not to hit it at all.
• The irrationality of a thing is no argument against its existence, rather a condition of it.
• The more you let yourself go, the less others let you go.
