People laugh when I say that I think a jellyfish is one of the most beautiful things in the world. What they don't understand is, I mean a jellyfish with long, blond hair.

What do you like about this quote?

 

Kierkegaard (I believe) sure was a strange dark man when it came to relating Christianity with his other thoughts.

What's that quote from Babylon 5 about being Russian?

 

Never watched Babylon 5, but I'm pretty positive it's Russian in nature. Maybe someone from the Motherland can correct me on that?

 

 

What do you like about this quote?

 

I like it because it's an examplary quote that illustrates his dissertations on philosophy, in particular choices and how people will react to them. And because it pretty much embodies a timeless, social malaise: a certain outcry for unshackled or unbounded expression but an inability to justify said expression. To speak one's mind freely does not deny responsability for said expression; yet, it's all too common to see someone pining for freedom of speech during their discourse but then being unable to deal with an opposite reasoning; this rejection almost accuses others of being thought tyrants simply because they too, are exercising free speech - and free thought along with it - but sit on the other side of the fence.

 

Or, I may be drunk.

I don't understand this one:

"To insist in the past is to lose an eye; to ignore it is to lose both."

-Russian proverb

I don't mind if people can't dance, after all, who's the judge? Similarly, if a man feels more comfortable wearing high-heels and a chiffon dress, more power to them. Not my thing, but I don't mind that they choose a different way to express themselves. There are much worse ways to express oneself, like manipulating, torturing or generally hurting others for their own amusement, for example.

I can't dance. I don't try either, well not without the 'help' of large ammounts of alchohol anyway.

 

I do take issue with transvestites who can't hack it though, some minimum standard is surely in order. Why volountarily change yourself into the ugliest woman known to man.

Ah that takes me back . I miss that crazy dwarf, the flames of a deliberately triggered trap dancing on his hat.

 

I found at least one of the Bab5 quotes:

 

Dr. Stephen Franklin: "It's all so brief, isn't it? Typical human lifespan is almost a hundred years, but it's barely a second compared to what's out there. It wouldn't be so bad if life didn't take so long to figure out. Seems you just start to get it right and then... it's over."

 

Lt. Commander Susan Ivanova: "Doesn't matter. If we lived two hundred years, we'd still be human. We'd still make the same mistakes."

 

Dr. Stephen Franklin: "You're a pessimist."

 

Lt. Commander Susan Ivanova: "I am Russian, Doctor. We understand these things."

"It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"."
