:''Respect for the truth comes close to being the basis for all morality.'' | |||
:::::::::--] | |||
<!-- | |||
There is no escape - we pay for the violence of our ancestors. | |||
What do you despise? By this are you truly known. | |||
Have you ever sifted sand through a screen? | |||
The wise man molds himself-the fool lives only to die. | |||
Not collecting, that is the ultimate gathering. | |||
I know when we should leave. It's a talent few men have. There's a time for endings-and that's a good beginning. | |||
-Bijaz | |||
There is nothing firm, nothing balanced, nothing durible in all the universe-nothing remains in its state, each day, sometimes each hour brings change. | |||
Do not be trapped by the need to achieve anything. This way, you achieve everything. | |||
-Zensunni saying | |||
There exists no separation between gods and men; one blends softly casual into the other. | |||
Empires do not suffer emptiness of purpose at the time of their creation. It is when they have become established that aims are lost and replaced by vague ritual. | |||
A: Why should I answer your questions? | |||
Q: Because I will preserve your words. | |||
A: Ahhh! The ultimate appeal to a historian! | |||
Our fathers ate manna in the desert, | |||
In the burning places we whirlwinds came. | |||
Lord, save us from that horrible land! | |||
Save us... Oh-H-H-H, save us | |||
From the dry and thirsty land. | |||
I remeber salt smoke from a beach fire | |||
And shadows under the pines- | |||
Solid, clean... fixed- | |||
Seagulls perched at the tip of land, | |||
White upon green... | |||
And a wind comes through the pines | |||
To sway the shadows; | |||
The seagulls spread their wings, | |||
Lift | |||
And fill the sky with screeches. | |||
And I hear the wind | |||
Blowing across our beach, | |||
And the surf, | |||
And I see that our fire | |||
Has scorched the seaweed. --> | |||

Welcome!
This Week's quotation
- Respect for the truth comes close to being the basis for all morality.
About Me
I am a fairly experienced Misplaced Pages user and writer who has been here since Dec. of 2004. I am also an administrator, one of many! How about that. If edit counts, contributions, and administrative actions interest you, you may wish to check out my subpage, User:Marudubshinki/Edits. Accountability and transparency, yay!
I also occasionally edit on: Wookieepedia, (here), the Jargon Wiki, (here), the Wheel of Time wiki (here), Wikibooks (here), Wikisource (here), Metapedia (here), the ratpoison wiki (here), the Haskell wiki (here), and also on Uncyclopedia (here). I also have considerable interest in computer matters, and in literature.
To Do
Notes to self:
- Re-write & expand 9th Elsewhere article- rather a good webcomic; also do Errant Story.
- Using Basil Liddell Hart's Strategy, add battle explanations to Belisarius.
- Cleanup and expand, after re-reading, Freedom Evolves.
- Expand Lando Calrissian. Would you believe there is no EU material whatsoever?
- Rework Maarek Stele with that bastard Publius' ridiculously good article ; also Wookiepedia's
- Cleanup and expand AI winter.
- Expand the ratpoison wikibook as my use of ratpoison grows in proficiency
- Write a conkeror manual after figuring out sane commands for tabbed browsing?
- Write an Encyclopedia of the Brethren of Purity, Epistles of the Brethren of Purity, Rasa’il-e-Ikhwanus Safa, Brethren of Purity, Sincere Brethren, Brethren of Sincerity, Ikhwan as-Safa etc.
