“Every tradition grows ever more venerable - the more remote its origin, the more confused that origin is. The reverence due to it increases from generation to generation. The tradition finally becomes holy and inspires awe.”

Atomic Habits • James Clear“If the knowledge which we acquired before birth was lost to us at birth, and afterwords by the use of the senses we recovered that which we previously knew, will not that which we call learning be a process of recovering our knowledge, and may not this be rightly termed recollection by us? ...Then, Simmias, our souls must have existed before they were in the form of man—without bodies, and must have had intelligence.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“ I am unaware of anyone ... seriously suggesting ... biological features of the region's peoples that might have contributed. ”
Guns, Germs And Steel • Jared Diamond, Ph.D. (UCLA)“We are all born in the same way but we all die in different ways.”
Ulysses • James Joyce
