The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948)

Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were.

Doctor Who is serious (even though most of the time he's right)???

Logic, my dear Zoe, merely enables one to be wrong with authority.

Look, try and use your intelligence, man, even if you are a politician.

I tolerate this century but I don't enjoy it.

Well here is a classic:

Who’s On First

By Abbott and Costello

Abbott: Well Costello, I’m going to New York with you. You know, Bucky Harris, the Yank’s manager gave me a job as coach for as long as you’re on the team.

Costello: Look Abbott, if you’re the coach, you must know all the players.

Abbott: Right, certainly do.

Costello: Well, I never met the guys, so you’ll have to tell me their names, and then I’ll know who’s playing on the team.

Abbott: Oh, I’ll tell you their names, but you know strange as it may seem, they give these ball players now a days, very peculiar names.

Costello: You mean funny names?

Abbott: Strange names, pet names. Like, Dizzy Dean, and…

Costello: His brother Daffy?

Abbott: Daffy Dean.

Costello: And their French cousin.

Abbott: French?

Costello: Goofe’.

Abbott: Goofe’ Dean, oh I see! Well let’s see, we have on the bags, we have Who’s on first, What’s on second, and I Don’t Know is on third.

Costello: That’s what I want to find out.

Abbott: I say, Who’s on first, What’s on second, and I Don’t Know’s on third.

Costello: Are you the manager?

Abbott: Yes.

Costello: You going to be the coach too?

Abbott: Yes.

Costello: And you don’t know the fellow’s names?

Abbott: Well I should.

Costello: Well then who is on first?

Abbott: Yes.

Costello: I mean the fellow’s name.

Abbott: Who.

Costello: The guy on first.

Abbott: Who.

Costello: The first baseman.

Abbott: Who!

Costello: The guy playing first base.

Abbott: Who is on first.

Costello: I’m asking you who’s on first!

Abbott: That’s the man’s name.

Costello: That’s whose name?

Abbott: Yeah.

Costello: Well go ahead and tell me.

Abbott: That’s it.

Costello: That’s who?

Abbott: Yeah.

(Pause)

Costello: Look, you got a first baseman?

Abbott: Certainly.

Costello: Who’s playing first?

Abbott: That’s right.

Costello: When you pay off the first baseman every month, who gets the money?

Abbott: Every dollar of it.

Costello: All I’m trying to find out is the fellow’s name on first base.

Abbott: Who.

Costello: The guy that gets the money.

Abbott: That’s it.

Costello: Who gets the money on first base?

Abbott: He does, every dollar! Sometimes his wife comes down and collects it.

Costello: Whose wife?

Abbott: Yes. (Pause) What’s wrong with that?

Costello: Look, all I want to know is when you sign up the first baseman, how does he sign his name to the contract?

Abbott: Who.

Costello: The guy.

Abbott: Who.

Costello: How does he sign it?

Abbott: That’s how he signs it!

Costello: Who?

Abbott: Yes.

(Pause)

Costello: All I’m trying to find out is what’s the guy’s name on first base.

Abbott: No, what’s on second base.

Costello: I’m not asking who’s on second.

Abbott: Who is on first!

Costello: One base at a time!

Abbott: Well don’t change the players around!

Costello: I’m not changing nobody!

Abbott: Take it easy, buddy.

Costello: All I’m asking you, who’s the guy on first base?!

Abbott: That’s right.

Costello: Okay.

Abbott: Alright.

(Pause)

Costello: What’s the guy’s name on first base?!

Abbott: No, What is on second!

Costello: I’m not asking you who’s on second!

Abbott: Who’s on first.

Costello: I don’t know.

Abbott: Oh, he’s on third. We’re not talking about him. Now let’s get back to first.

Costello: Now how did I get on third base?

Abbott: Well you mentioned his name.

Costello: If I mentioned the third baseman’s name, who did I say’s playing third?

Abbott: No, Who’s playing first.

Costello: What’s on first?

Abbott: What’s on second.

Costello: I don’t know.

Abbott: He’s on third.

Costello: There I go, back on third again! Will you stay on third base and don’t go off it?

Abbott: Alright, what do you want to know?

Costello: Now who’s playing third base?!

Abbott: Why do you insist on putting Who on third base?

Costello: What am I putting on third?!

Abbott: No, What is on second.

Costello: You don’t want who on second?!

Abbott: No, Who is on first.

Costello: I don’t know!

Both: Third base!

(Pause)

Costello: Look, you got outfield?

Abbott: Sure.

Costello: The left fielder’s name?

Abbott: Why.

Costello: I just thought I’d ask you.

Abbott: Well I just thought I’d tell you.

Costello: Then tell me who is playing left field.

Abbott: Who is playing first.

Costello: I’m not…Stay out of the infield! I want to know, what’s the guy’s name in left field?

Abbott: No, What is on second.

Costello: I’m not asking who’s on second.

Abbott: No, Who is on first.

Costello: I don’t know.

Both: Third base!

(Pause)

Costello: And left fielder’s name?

Abbott: Why!

Costello: Because.

Abbott: No, he’s center field.

Costello: (Fumbles words loudly)

Abbott: Well that’s the fellow’s name.

Costello: Look, look, look, you got a pitcher?

Abbott: Sure.

Costello: The pitcher’s name?

Abbott: Tomorrow.

Costello: You don’t want to tell me today?

Abbott: I’m telling you then.

Costello: Well go ahead.

Abbott: Tomorrow.

Costello: What time?

Abbott: What time what?

Costello: At what time tomorrow are you going to tell me who’s pitching?

Abbott: Now listen, Who is not pitching. Who is on…

Costello: I’ll break your arm you say who’s on first! I want to know, what’s the pitcher’s name?

Abbott: What’s on second!

Costello: I don’t know!

Both: Third base!

(Pause)

Costello: Got a catcher?

Abbott: Certainly.

Costello: The catcher’s name.

Abbott: Today.

Costello: Today? And tomorrow’s pitching?

Abbott: Now you’ve got it.

Costello: All we got is a couple of days on the team. You know, I’m a catcher too.

Abbott: So they tell me.

Costello: I get behind the plate, do some fancy catching. Tomorrow’s pitching on my team and a heavy hitter gets up.

Abbott: Yes.

Costello: Now, the heavy hitter bunts the ball. When he bunts the ball, me being a good catcher, I want to throw the guy out at first base. So I pick up the ball, and throw it to who?

Abbott: Now that’s the first thing that you’ve said right.

Costello: I don’t even know what I’m talking about!

Abbott: Well that’s all you have to do!

Costello: Is throw the ball to first base?

Abbott: Yes.

Costello: Now who’s got it?

Abbott: Naturally.

(Pause)

Costello: Look, if I throw the ball to first base, somebody’s got to get it. Now who has it?

Abbott: Naturally.

Costello: Who?

Abbott: Naturally.

Costello: Naturally?

Abbott: Naturally.

Costello: So I pick up the ball and throw it to Naturally?

Abbott: No you don’t! You throw the ball to Who!

Costello: Naturally.

Abbott: That’s different.

Costello: That’s what I said.

Abbott: You’re not saying that.

Costello: I throw the ball to Naturally?

Abbott: You throw it to Who.

Costello: Naturally.

Abbott: That’s it.

Costello: That’s what I said!

Abbott: Listen, you ask me.

Costello: I throw the ball to who?

Abbott: Naturally.

Costello: Now you ask me.

Abbott: You throw the ball to Who?

Costello: Naturally.

Abbott: That’s it.

Costello: Same as you!

Abbott: You just changed them around.

Costello: Same as you! I throw the ball to who. Whoever it is drops the ball, the guy runs to second, who picks up the ball, throw’s it to what, what throw’s it to I don’t know, I don’t know throw’s it back to tomorrow, triple play!

Abbott: Yes.

Costello: Another guy gets up, and it’s a long fly ball to because. Why? I don’t know, he’s on third, and I don’t give a darn!

Abbott: Oh…What?

Costello: I said, I don’t give a darn!

Abbott: Oh, that’s our short stop.

Costello: (Fumbles words loudly)

Dread Pirate Roberts - “Life is pain...anyone who says differently is selling something.”

Saint Augustine of Hippo - “An apt and true reply was given to Alexander the Great by a pirate who had been seized. For when that king had asked the man what he meant by keeping hostile possession of the sea, he answered with bold pride. 'What thou meanest by seizing the whole earth; but because I do it with a petty ship, I am called a robber, whilst thou who dost it with a great fleet art styled emperor.'”

Bern Williams - “The average man will bristle if you say his father was dishonest, but he will brag a little if he discovers that his great-grandfather was a pirate.”

Sir William Schwenck Gilbert - “I'm very good at integral and differential calculus, I know the scientific names of beings animalculous; In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral, I am the very model of a modern Major-General.”

A sea captain when he stands upon the bridge, or looks out from his deck-house, thinks much about God and about the world. Away in the valley yonder among the corn and the poppies men may well forget all things except the warmth of the sun upon the face, and the kind shadow under the hedge; but he who journeys through storm and darkness must needs think and think. One July a couple of years ago I took my supper with a Captain Moran on board the s.s. Margaret, that had put into a western river from I know not where. I found him a man of many notions all flavoured with his personality, as is the way with sailors. He talked in his queer sea manner of God and the world, and up through all his words broke the hard energy of his calling.

The great lesson to learn of life is the need of giving out from the abundance of one's self in order to be ever abundant within one's self.

Walter Russell

The crisis, as well as the opportunity, of our time is to surrender our ego and conditioned fear mechanisms to the primary torsion energy of unconditional love that is seeking to evolve us and is calling us as a species home.

Sol Luckman

Love is patient, love is kind.

It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.

It is not rude, it is not self-seeking.

It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.

It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails.

I Corinthians 13:4-8
