Wisdom
When the hour of dire need draws nigh
A threatening place
A small corner of the world of things
It will revenge itself in judgment
The journey begins by letting go
When we hit our lowest point
Always start at the doorstep
I have failed my art
The way of things
How things ought to be
Never any place I was meant to be
The wisdom of the apprentice
What does wisdom counsel?
Wisdom
Managing Oneself
Ignorant, but curious
Become a person who actually does things
Truisms
To supersede the span of individual life
A QuoteNothing gives man fuller satisfaction than participation in processes that supersede the span of individual life.
— Gotthard Booth
Old words
A Quote by Winston ChurchillShort words are best
and the old words, when short,
are the best of all.
Strength from both mass and form
Hoover Dam has the shape of an arch dam, but it is actually a hybrid structure, gathering strength from both mass and form. The dam is often ranked as one of the most exquisite of all engineered structures. It is fitted to its site so well that the gnarly canyon wall looks like an organic growth engulfing the mass of concrete.
