Say yes and never do it A Quote by Mel Brooks www.newyorker.com You have some wonderful stories of basically getting away with stuff at the studios. I’d learned one very simple trick: say yes. Simply say yes…You say yes, and you never do it. That’s great advice for life. It is. Don’t fight them. Don’t waste your time struggling with them and trying to make sense to them. They’ll never understand. managementworkmaking
Blessed by the four elements The Indian stone temple also included, in its architectural form, the means for being blessed by the four elements—earth, wind, water, fire. Before entering the temple gates, one removed one's shoes to touch and be blessed by the earth. Then upon passing through the temple gateway, one is blessed by the air with a gust of wind. A blessing by water is obtained by bathing in the temple tank, or at least descending its steps to touch the water. Finally, on entering the cool interior of the sanctuary, the worshipper is given a mark on the forehead with ashes taken from a sacred flame by an attendant priest. Even this blessing by fire has a slight cooling sensation to it. Perhaps it is only coincidental that each of these four blessings is associated with a cooling sensation; and yet, the use of forms and materials that inevitably create coolness is quite remarkable.
