All attempts at artificial aviation are not only dangerous to human life, but foredoomed to failure from the engineering standpoint (Via Quotes)
Where did feelings go when they disappeared? Did they leave a chemical trace somewhere in our minds, so that if we could look inside ourselves we would see via the patterns of neurons some of the important things that had happened to us in our lifetimes? (Via Quotes)
There always has been a mystique and a romance about aviation, but in terms of the principles involved of satisfying your customer there’s no difference between selling airlines seats and chocolate bars (Via Quotes)
The more I fly, the more I’m convinced that the true wonder of modern aviation is the transformation of tasteless particles into something known as airplane food (Via Quotes)
I like games that are simple. Not games that are trivial, but also not games that require you to invest a week or to relearn something. I like games that you can just pick up, sit down in front of, and get going (Via Quotes)
Pop culture has entered into a nostalgic malaise. Online culture is dominated by trivial mashups of the culture that existed before the onset of mashups, and by fandom responding to the dwindling outposts of centralized mass media. It is a culture of reaction without action (Via Quotes)
The point is that no matter what you choose to do with your body when you die, it won’t, ultimately, be very appealing. If you are inclined to donate yourself to science, you should not let images of dissection or dismemberment put you off. They are no more or less gruesome, in my opinion, than ordinary decay or the sewing shut of your jaws via your nostrils for a funeral viewing (Via Quotes)
Now I’m a free agent, literally and figuratively. I’ve reached that enviable state in life in which I can do pretty much what I want. And what I want is to continue to play basketball. I still love the game, and I still have something to offer. My coaches and teammates recognize that. At the same time, I want to be genuine and authentic and truthful (Via Quotes)
If we did realize the difference between the vital few and the trivial many in all aspects of our lives, and if we did something about it, we could multiply anything that we valued (Via Quotes)
Unless women have, from the moment of birth, socialization for, expectations of, and preparation for a viable significant alternative to motherhood... women will continue to want and reproduce too many children (Via Quotes)
People who truly have control over time always have some in their pocket to give to someone in need. A sense of priorities drives their use of time and it can shift away from the ordinary work that’s easy to justify, in favor of the more ethereal, deeper things that are harder to justify. They protect their time from trivia and idiocy; these people are time rich. They provide themselves with a surplus of time. They might seem to idle, or relax more often than the rest, but that just might be a sign of their mastery, not their incompetence (Via Quotes)
Nothing in life is trivial. Life is whole wherever and whenever we touch it, and one moment or event is not less sacred than another (Via Quotes)
The best graphics are about the useful and important, about life and death, about the universe. Beautiful graphics do not traffic with the trivial (Via Quotes)
Manners are made up of trivialities of deportment which can be easily learned if one does not happen to know them (Via Quotes)
Aviation is going to control the world economically and militarily whether we like it or not. Airpower is not merely military aviation, it is also civilian aviation and airpower is peace power (Via Quotes)
Another advantage of avoiding sodas is that you will avoid the caffeine that is in many of them. Caffeine is a weak diuretic that causes calcium loss via the kidneys (Via Quotes)
Poverty, the racial divide and social injustice do not impact only those who suffer most visibly. Alleviating poverty and injustice is a responsibility we must never forget or abandon (Via Quotes)
As often as not our whole self... engages itself in the most trivial of things, the shape of a particular hill, a road in the town in which we lived as children, the movement of wind in grass. The things we shall take with us when we die will nearly all be small things (Via Quotes)
I think every discovery of the world plunges us into jubilation, a radical amazement that tears apart the veil of triviality (Via Quotes)
Habits of pessimism lead to depression, wither achievement, and undermine physical health. The good news is that pessimism can be unlearned, and that with its removal depression, underachievement, and poor health can be alleviated (Via Quotes)
What’s recommended is that if you have a good experience, don’t get too excited. And if you have a bad experience, don’t mistake it for a serious deviation or a sidetrack that you have to find your way back from. If you have a bad experience, just continue practicing as you were. In other words, whatever happens, just keep looking at your mind (Via Quotes)
All talk of method and style seemed suddenly trivial; I became interested in meaning. I wanted to say something musically about life and living (Via Quotes)
No man has a right to be idle. Where is it that in such a world as this, that health, and leisure, and affluence may not find some ignorance to instruct, some wrong to redress, some want to supply, some misery to alleviate? (Via Quotes)
There is a clear difference between sexist parody and parody of sexism. Sexist parody encourages the players to mock and trivialize gender issues while parody of sexism disrupts the status quo and undermines regressive gender conventions (Via Quotes)
Never do an evil act just because it is trivial; never leave a good act undone just because it’s small (Via Quotes)
We have no excuse to deviate from the paths of righteousness. If we hold fast to the iron rod, we cannot be deceived (Via Quotes)
In our discussions here at the forum there was no trace of the futile debate about what is better, capitalism or socialism... We should seek a synthesis of ideas and values that have proven their viability (Via Quotes)
What is commonly overlooked in using the computer is the fact that the central goal of design is still to obviate failure, and thus it is critical to identify exactly how a structure may fail. The computer cannot do this by itself (Via Quotes)
You can never do merely one thing. The law applies to any action that changes something in a complex system. The point is that an action taken to alleviate a problem will trigger several effects, some of which may offset or even negate the one intended (Via Quotes)
It is not too farfetched that soon it will be possible for a physician to send the electrocardiogram and the heart sound via communication satellite to a distant heart specialist for diagnosis and consultation (Via Quotes)
