@vonny,
Mr Bekoff must have averted his eyes when passing a butcher's shop.

Boredom is like a pitiless zooming in on the epidermis of time. Every instant is dilated and magnified like the pores of the face.

@edgarblythe,
Bollocks!! That's the first stupid remark I've ever heard from that guy.

I didn't think much of the Einstein either.

@edgarblythe,
“Progress has never been a bargain. You have to pay for it.
Sometimes I think there's a man who sits behind a counter and says, "All right, you can have a telephone but you lose privacy and the charm of distance.
Madam, you may vote but at a price. You lose the right to retreat behind the powder puff or your petticoat.
Mister, you may conquer the air but the birds will lose their wonder and the clouds will smell of gasoline."
― Jerome Lawrence, Inherit the Wind

"It's the loneliest feeling in the world-to find yourself standing up when everybody else is sitting down. To have everybody look at you and say, 'What's the matter with him?' I know. I know what it feels like. Walking down an empty street, listening to the sound of your own footsteps. Shutters closed, blinds drawn, doors locked against you. And you aren't sure whether you're walking toward something, or if you're just walking away.”
― Robert E. Lee, Inherit the Wind

It's irony ed. Like when the Vicar rages about adultery and fornication in the pulpit.

I don't think Goethe did irony.

That's a pile of cobblers as well. In fact vonny, the other two are a bit jejune. A trifle precious.

@edgarblythe,
So then God is real to those who imagine She/He exists.

And the truth is what sells.
