    From the one and only Oscar Wilde........

    "If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you."

    "Every woman is a rebel."

    "Experience is merely the name men gave to their mistakes."

    "I don't want to go to heaven. None of my friends are there."

    "The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple."

    "It is what you read when you don't have to that determines what you will be when you can't help it."

    "To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

    "Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much."

    "Be yourself; everyone else is already taken."

    "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying."

    ............mind boggling funny and accurate

    'There are only directions, no answers and the direction is to be found in the question.'
    liquidangel, 2006
    W.C.
    The Lion strode through the halls of Hell;
    Across his path grim shadows fell
    Of many a mowing, nameless shape—
    Monsters with dripping jaws agape.
    The darkness shuddered with scream and yell
    When the Lion stalked through the halls of Hell.

    "Envision this with me . . . millions of sea turtles pulsing ashore onto the beaches . . . fertilizing the rims of thousands of islands and two continents. And after this wave of nutrients enters the rims, it is pulsed on up and into the interior lands in successive waves of biological transport. Year after year – tons of nutrients and billions of kilojoules of energy in a predictable, regular cycle – for tens of millions of years.

    Envision this with me . . . millions of turtles grazing on seagrass beds, stimulating primary productivity at the base of the ocean’s food chain. And this surge of increased productivity works its way up the food chain, nourishing shrimp, mollusks, lobsters, and fish – as well as eventually pulsing onto the shore in the annual ballet of nesting activity.

    Envision this with me . . . millions of sea turtles nibbling on sponges – trimming back the invading poriferans that otherwise would overgrow and shut down the coral reef machine. A constant system of checks and balances that also contributes to the gift of energy that sea turtles offer to the land each year in the form of nests and eggs. Year after year, for tens of million of years, the ecosystem engineers, these hawksbill and green and loggerhead and ridley and leatherback turtles, shape and improve and fine-tune the complex and mysterious and marvelous cybernetic machines of the oceans."

    There will always be times when you feel discouraged. I too have felt

    despair many times in my life, but I do not keep a chair for it. I will

    not entertain it. It is not allowed to eat from my plate.


    The reason is this: In my uttermost bones I know something, as do you. It is

    that there can be no despair when you remember why you came to Earth,

    who you serve, and who sent you here. The good words we say and the good

    deeds we do are not ours. They are the words and deeds of the One who

    brought us here. In that spirit, I hope you will write this on your

    wall: When a great ship is in harbor and moored, it is safe, there can

    be no doubt. But that is not what great ships are built for.
