More From Arthur Miller

It is the fixed that horrifies us, the fixed that assails us with the tremendous force of mindlessness. the fixed is a mason jar,and we can't beat it open. ...the fixed is a world without fire--dead flint, dead tinder, and nowhere a spark. it is motion without direction, force without power, the aimless procession of caterpillars round the rim of a vase, and i hate it because at any moment i myself might step to that charmed and glistening thread.
Hate Fire Vases
Everything that is thought and expressed in words is one-sided, only half the truth; it all lacks totality, completeness, unity. when the illustrious buddha taught about the world, he had to divide it into samsara and nirvana, illusion and truth, into suffering and salvation. one cannot do otherwise, there is no other method for those who teach. but the world itself, being in and around us, is never one-sided. never is a man or a deed wholly samsara or wholly nirvana; never is a man wholly a saint or a sinner. this only seems so because we suffer the illusion that time is something real.
Spiritual Real Men
I need a good book i need a good story. i need a good book. the kind that explodes off the shelf. i need some good writing, alive and exciting, to contemplate all by myself. i need a good novel, i need a good read. i probably need two or three. i need a good tale of love and betrayal or perhaps an adventure at sea. i need a good saga. i need a good yarn. a momentous and mightily or slight one. but with thousands and thousands and thousands of books, i need someone to tell me the right one. -john lithgow
Betrayal Book Writing
I am but a poor struggling soul yearning to be wholly good, wholly truthful and wholly non-violent in thought, word and deed, but ever failing to reach the ideal which i know to be true. it is a painful climb, but each step upwards makes me feel stronger and fit for the next.
Spiritual Struggle Soul
But his lordship [tells]us that god is wholly here, and wholly there, and wholly every where; because he has no parts. i cannot comprehend nor conceive this. for methinks it implies also that the whole world is also in the whole god, and in every part of god. norcan i find anything of this in the scripture. if i could find it there, i could believe it; and if i could find it in the public doctrine of the church, i could easily abstain from contradicting it.
Bible God Believe
And if someone felt that his life had been an utter failure, and that he himself was only one among millions of wholly unimportant people who could be replaced as easily as broken windowpanes, he would go and pour out his heart to momo. and, even as he spoke, he would come to realize by some mysterious means that he was absolutely wrong: that there was only one person like himself in the whole world, and that, consequently, he mattered to the world in his own particular way. such was momo's talent for listening.

I don't understand why people never say what they mean. it's like the immigrants who come to a country and learn the language but are completely baffled by idioms. (seriously, how could anyone who isn't a native english speaker 'get the picture,' so to speak, and not assume it has something to do with a photo or a painting?)

Whoever refuses to obey the general will will be forced to do so by the entire body; this means merely that he will be forced to be free.

Did you know that jacques benveniste, one of the world's leading homeopathic 'scientists', now claims that you can email homeopathic remedies? yeah, see, what you do is you can take the 'memory' of the diluted substance out of the water electromagnetically, put it on your computer, email it, and play it back on a sound card into new water. i mean, that could work, right?

Pretty, and you may be talented, but nobody will remember that if you're mean.
