“The mind is a dangerous weapon, even to the possessor, if he knows not discreetly how to use it. ”
Essays • Michel De Montaigne“A thought, even a possibility, can shatter and transform us.”
Anti-Christ • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“My two main conclusions are that technology develops cumulatively, rather than in isolated heroic acts, and that it finds most of its uses after it has been invented, rather than being invented to meet a foreseen need.”
Guns, Germs And Steel • Jared Diamond, Ph.D. (UCLA)“In former days, when wars arose from individual causes, from the policy of a Minister or the passion of a King, when they were fought by small regular armies of professional soldiers, and when their course was retarded by the difficulties of communication and supply, and often suspended by the winter season, it was possible to limit the liabilities of the combatants. But now, when mighty populations are impelled on each other, each individual severally embittered and inflamed—when the resources of science and civilisation sweep away everything that might mitigate their fury, a European war can only end in the ruin of the vanquished and the scarcely less fatal commercial dislocation and exhaustion of the conquerors. Democracy is more vindictive than Cabinets. The wars of peoples will be more terrible than those of kings.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“In my world, everything is possible and everything is relative.”
The Zahir • Paulo Coelho
