Tiger, tiger burning bright

Thought for Tomorrow

“Be very, very careful what you put into that head, because you will never, ever get it out.”

- Thomas Wolsey, 1471 – 1530.

Comment: And by extension be very very careful what others, ‘systems’, or ‘institutions’ may put in to that head – unknown to you!! For idiots who read this, the man is not talking about obvious exceptions such as dementia. He’s talking about how people latch on to ideas, beliefs and knowledge etc.. and refuse to give them up even in the face of incontrovertible evidence. And by extension scientists and the religious elite are guilty of the same ‘crime’  of stuffing things in people’s heads. And people are guilty of a crime against their own selves for being so stupidly unaware.

"The conscious mind determines the actions, the unconscious mind determines the reactions; and the reactions are just as important as the actions."

No Manual

“God is said to have made man in his own image. God gave man a brain, but gave man no manual on how to use the brain. God is an idiot – and so is man. Man can therefore blame God for his stupidity. Man remains stupid.”

Acquiring new abilities by 'hard graft' is actually more worthy of recognition than being born with special abilities.

Oh well, the humans – they’re so predictable at times. Nothing like a bit o’ leg and some sexual imagery to get them going maaaad!!
