The most brilliant thing ever said by a man

"Don't believe in tradition, don't believe in mere hearsay. Don't accept anything because things are in the scriptures. Don't accept anything because the teacher appears to be a very honorable, sincere person. Don't accept anything because it appeals to intellect, to logic or philosophy. Don't accept anything because you like it. Check with your own experience, investigate, discuss, meditate upon, and question. And then, if what you learned is good for yourself, good for others, good for both, then accept it. If it is not good for you, not good for others, not good for both, reject it."

--------- Buddha --------

I think this idea is useful for everyone. So theist, atheist, religious and non religious people, please write your idea here.

The_Kansan: You forgot this one, D:

"Well, it's too early to drink, too late to dance and too windy to stack BB's, so I reckon we might as well go fishin'! You see, Grasshopper, life is what you make of it and I'm in the mood to make a fishin' trip of mine..."

NeWildflower: Could I clone you?


God no! I think one of me is plenty! (And then here are those who think one is too darn many!) rolling on the floor laughing

And that reminds me of another wise quote I like: "I was only one and they were many, but even one Sackett is quite a few."
~William Tell Sackett~ - from a book by Louis L'Amour.
