Default Quote of the Day

I decided really that hillarious thesis was suppose to be Quote of the Day a much better thread...

Quote:
Alvin'd never have a night of sleep again if he didn't take this Unmaker down somehow and wrestle him into the dirt.
....
And then he realized that he could never make anything out of the Unmaker, could never make the Unmaker do or be anything because it was only Undoing and Unbeing. It wasn't the Unmaker he needed to call to, it was all the living things around him, the trees, the grass, the earth, the air itself. It was the greensong that he needed to restore."
Prentice Alvin, Card

In context... The unmaker is essentially, war, pollution and negativity and Alvin can manipulate physical reality fully in this fantasy book. He tried to fight the unmaker but you can't fight fighting you cant war against war. So instead he brought to life (greensong is what AmerIndians hear in the former america to be one with nature) more nature and happiness and goodness and death and negativity was overcome.

Say what? Your such a hoot.

Anyway I got one,

If you stood on it, it probably is
But if you didn't make it,
then don't feel inclined
to clean it up.
Cause it ain't broke so don't fix it.
Smear it about a bit and exclaim in disgust
Pointing at the nearest hobo
with a look of revolt upon visage
traipse off scraping shoe in consternation.

How do?

All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him.
Buddha

Ah a nice summation of the law of Attraction
