"In between goals is a thing called life,

 that has to be lived and enjoyed."

Sid Caesar

"Life consists not in holding good cards

but in playing those you hold well."

Josh Billings

Random Pattern [16]

"People where you live," the little prince said,

"grow five thousand roses in one garden...

yet they don't find what they're looking for..."

"They don't find it," I answered.

"And yet what they're looking for could be found in a single rose, or a little water..."

"Of course," I answered.

And the little prince added, "But eyes are blind.

You have to look with the heart."

"And when you're consoled (everyone is eventually consoled),

you'll be glad you've known me.

You'll always be my friend.

You'll feel like laughing with me.

And you'll open your windows sometimes just for the fun of it...

And your friends will be amazed to see you laughing

while you're looking up at the sky.

Then you'll tell them, 'Yes, it's the stars.

They always make me laugh!"

~The Little Prince

~Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

may be noble or trivial,

"Because our entire universe is made up of consciousness,

we never really experience the universe directly,

we just experience our consciousness of the universe,

our perception of it,

so right, our only universe is perception."

"Existence is random.

Has no pattern save what we imagine

after staring at it for too long.

No meaning save what we choose to impose."

recognition of the pattern"

“Life forms illogical patterns.

It is haphazard and full of beauties

which I try to catch as they fly by,

for who knows whether any of them will ever return?”

The truth is outside of all fixed patterns."

“Do not become paralyzed and enchained by the set patterns

which have been woven of old.

No, build from your own youthful feeling,

your own groping thought

and your own flowering perception.”

"Our humanity rests upon a series of learned behaviors,

woven together into patterns

that are infinitely fragile

and never directly inherited."

Margaret Mead

Random Pattern [1]

"What we call chaos is just patterns we haven't recognized.

What we call random is just patterns we can't decipher.

What we can't understand we call nonsense.

What we can't read we call gibberish.

There is no free will.

There are no variables.

There is only the inevitable."

Chuck Palahniuk

The Bear [4]

"Wake in the deepest dark of night

and hear the driving rain.

Reach out a hand

and take a paw

and go to sleep again."

The Bear [3]

“A friend should bear his friend's infirmities.”
