Kudos to all who credited thier quotes. Piaf, why don't you credit the author of the book of revelations for us all, curious minds want to know....
i have been told that was written by god himself....of course i didnt know he spoke english but i have seen the book and its in english.
You have been told wrong. And there is this little thing called English translation. Funny how no one minds any quotes, but when there is one from the Bible people just need to comment. Haters gonna hate, and they do it so well and often.
how so? i may be, but show me one point of idiocity in my refusal to lie to myself about reality? how am i an idiot for preferring to actually DO things, myself, that being prevented from doing so by perpetual conversation? so, some big deal god wants to come by and have tea, ok, cool, so fine, so have your tea or what have you and then let me get back to my work that interests me. i'm sorry, i don't get it. where's the idiot in that? where? show me? i'm sorry but i really don't see it as a nice thing to demand people's attention, even for a god or someone channeling a god, to do so.
“Seeing the moving handmill, Kabir wept and said, "Alas, no one has survived the pressure of the two millstones (of the heavens and the earth). They left all their mighty empire and pomp and show behind them and but for a handful of dust no trace remains of their existence. Nobody knows about them or about what happened to them after their death -- what insects ate them up and how they fared with God. Thus alone shall one realize that this world is a transitory place and man has nothing to gain from it; it is a puppet show. Thus alone shall one find peace.” ― Mir Amman, A Tale of Four Dervishes
