spam philosophy

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a ... brain operation. Compassion is the antitoxin of the soul: where there is compassion even the most poisonous impulses remain relatively harmless. The problem with some people is that when they aren't drunk, they're sober. A woman knows the face of the man she loves as a sailor knows the open sea. Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. Autumn is the time when seasons merge because of bare necessity. When you're in love you never really know whether your elation comes from the qualities of the one you love, or if it attributes them to her; whether the light which surrounds her like a halo comes from you, from her, or from the meeting of your sparks. Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer. Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we fall asleep, we commit no sin. When we commit no sin, we go to heaven. So, let's all get drunk and go to heaven! Love is the beauty of the soul. Can miles truly separate you from friends... If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there? Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning. Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza. When solving problems, dig at the roots instead of just hacking at the leaves. Why is it drug addicts and computer afficionados are both called users? Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside them was superior to circumstances. Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand and melting like a snowflake. When you're in love you never really know whether your elation comes from the qualities of the one you love, or if it attributes them to her; whether the light which surrounds her like a halo comes from you, from her, or from the meeting of your sparks. The best proof of love is trust. When love is not madness, it is not love. A kiss makes the heart young again and wipes out the years. Compassion alone stands apart from the continuous traffic between good and evil proceeding within us. Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer. The only time you run out of chances is when you stop taking them. Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you, they're supposed to help you discover who you are. Touch is the most fundamental sense. A baby experiences it, all over, before he is born and long after he learns to use sight, hearing, or taste, and no human ever ceases to need it. Keep your children short on pocket money - but long on hugs. A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous. Love is always bestowed as a gift - freely, willingly and without expectation. We don't love to be loved; we love to love. I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a ... brain operation. Reduce the complexity of life by eliminating the needless wants of life, and the labors of life reduce themselves. The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands in times of challenge and controversy. A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a shp, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. Too often we give our children answers to remember rather than problems to solve. The problem with some people is that when they aren't drunk, they're sober. Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within. When you're in love you never really know whether your elation comes from the qualities of the one you love, or if it attributes them to her; whether the light which surrounds her like a halo comes from you, from her, or from the meeting of your sparks. A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous. I do not fear computers. I fear the lack of them. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same. A positive attitude will not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Those who are willing to sacrifice essential liberties for a little order, will lose both and deserve neither. Love is always bestowed as a gift - freely, willingly and without expectation. We don't love to be loved; we love to love. When solving problems, dig at the roots instead of just hacking at the leaves. Iron rusts from disuse; stagnant water loses its purity and in cold weather becomes frozen; even so does inaction sap the vigor of the mind. Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza. Sometimes our light goes out but is blown into flame by another human being. Each of us owes deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this light. Take away love and our earth is a tomb. Yesterday is a dream, tomorrow but a vision. But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness, and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well, therefore to this day. Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside them was superior to circumstances. Always remember that I have taken more out of alcohol than alcohol has taken out of me. Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside them was superior to circumstances. Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. Solitude, if rightly used, becomes not only a privilege but a necessity. Only a superficial soul fears to fraternize with itself. When solving problems, dig at the roots instead of just hacking at the leaves. Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up. Memory is a child walking along a seashore. You never can tell what small pebble it will pick up and store away among its treasured things. Friends are as companions on a journey, who ought to aid each other to persevere in the road to a happier life. You can widen your life by yourself, but to deepen it you need a friend. The game of life is not so much in holding a good hand as playing a poor hand well. Drinking provides a beautiful excuse to pursue the one activity that truly gives me pleasure -- hooking up with fat, hairy girls. A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a shp, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done, and why. Then do it. You can widen your life by yourself, but to deepen it you need a friend. Each encounter that becomes a friendship turns into a lifeline. One can never have too many, only too many to properly take care of. I would like to believe when I die that I have given myself away like a tree that sows seed every spring and never counts the loss, because it is not loss, it is adding to future life. It is the tree's way of being. Strongly rooted perhaps, but spilling out its treasure on the wind. When solving problems, dig at the roots instead of just hacking at the leaves. If you ever reach total enlightenment while drinking beer, I bet it makes beer shoot out your nose. I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a ... brain operation. The Babylon project was our last, best hope for peace. .. It failed. . But in the year of the Shadow war it became something greater: our last, best hope .. for victory. The year is 2260, the place: Babylon 5.True friendship comes when the silence between two people is comfortable. Treat people as if they were what they ought to be, and you help them to become what they are capable of being. Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside them was superior to circumstances. Reduce the complexity of life by eliminating the needless wants of life, and the labors of life reduce themselves. Who so loves believes the impossible. Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens. Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut. Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer. Love is the immortal flow of energy that nourishes, extends and preserves. Its eternal goal is life. I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a ... brain operation. The only time you run out of chances is when you stop taking them. Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer. Who so loves believes the impossible.
