Some favorite quotes

"94-But I did not get my picture of the world by satisfying myself of it's correctness; nor do I have it because I am satisfied of its correctness. No: it is the inherited background against which I distinguish between true and false.

95-The propositions describing this world picture might be part of a kind of mythology. And their roll is like that of rules of a game and the game can be learned purely practically, without learning any explicit rules" (Ludwig Wittgenstein-"On Certainty.")

"166-The difficulty is to realize the grounlessness of our believing." (Ludwig Wittgenstein-"On Certainty.")


"Misery consists only in the feeling of separation from the universe" (Alister Crowley- "Magick")

"Although this delay is only a fraction of a second, that is long enough to make impossible anything that involves accurate control over our bodies, or moving objects, such as catching a ball. By combining what our senses are telling us with a prediction of what we expect to be happening we can get an accurate picture of the current state of our bodies and the outside world." (an article in Bays Lifescience magazine)

"1:26 Then God said 'And now we will make human beings; they will be like us and resemble us." (The Bible-"The Book of Genesis") ...Umm, we?.. Us?
