Your Philosophical One Liners

• “Aging is an extraordinary process where you become the person you always should have been.” – David Bowie

 

It’s ironic that the moment one is ready to quit is that moment just before a miracle happens. Don’t quit.

 

Our contradictions.
We are in such a hurry to grow up, and then we long for our lost childhood. We make ourselves ill earning money, and then spend all our money on getting well again. We think so much about the future that we neglect the present, and thus experience neither the present nor the future. We live as if we were never going to die, and die as if we had never lived.”

Yeah, it’s more than a couple of lines but Plato was definitely a long winded kind of a guy.

 

"I don't want to be part of a world where being kind is a weakness."
---Keanu Reeves

 

It was Socrates who said:

By all means marry.
If you get a good wife, you’ll be happy.
If you get a bad wife, you’ll become a philosopher.

 

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

Hello @John Houlihan, how you doing?

 

Hi Marie,

I'm doing well. Thanks. I hope you are too.

In your past posts, you mentioned having out-of-body experiences (OBE). When I read that, I thought I too wish I could have OBEs.

Well, it turns out that I have been having OBEs every night when I dream. We all do according to my latest book read called "Seth Speaks". It is a new-age book channeled by Jane Roberts.

Have you ever heard of Jane Roberts and her many channeled books by a disembodied spirit called Seth? The material is controversial because it gives a new upbeat narrative about human beings and the purpose of life. If you have read any of Jane Robert's books, what do you think of her unusual material?

No John I haven't read any of her books, nor have I heard of her, but I will check her out and see what I think. I had one while trying to sleep and one in a club after kids week with the kids.
PLus a couple more. Enough to prove to me the spirit and body are separate entities or can be.

 

Don't sweat the small stuff.

 

Roman scholars prove we don't evolve. Marie,lol

 

"Evil trumps when good men do nothing" I read Edmond Burke never said this, so who did?

 

Well…yeah but naw….kinda sorta.
The actual quote is:
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

And yup, it’s Burke.
