Need to Know More


When you are young, you have a dream, like everybody else. Once you shred your youth, you grate your dreams too with it. And when your dreams are gone, you realize like everyone else - you need to get on with your daily grind

I heard this a long time ago:
The more you know, the more you will realize how little you know.

How about:
The more you know, the more you will realize how more you need to know?

They say we are conscious of our existence. I am consciously confused that still now; I have not come across any acceptable and credible clarification of our consciousness

If life is an experiment by God, or hurled down upon us by accident or fate without reason or cause – then experience it.

If life is a problem, then you will realize that experience will teach you that there is no solution for it.

Life is too short to get involved or occupy oneself with the concept of mythological powers.

How do I get myself to answer why there are blacks and whites and that in the hierarchy of civilization the whites will always occupy the highest position - or how the heck did we all come to this earth if not through apes then with or without any unearthly reason or power?

ЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮ

A little knowledge or was it education (?), is a dangerous thing - so they say. So if you are well educated or have considerable knowledge – will you be out of danger?

There is this myth that civilized men have a right to think and speak freely without taking the authorities’ permission.

ЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮ

All men are free and equal? What an absolutely uncorroborated fiction!

Need to practice the old maxim:
”Try to learn something about everything and everything about something”.

First there was this invention of Fire – then came the invention of Doubt.

Every generation feels that the world is as fresh as the first day and that he might stumble upon and discovers untold theories.

ЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮЮ

One day when you reach a certain intellectual level and maturely begin to ask yourself whether you are a theist, a pantheist, an atheist, a materialist, an idealist, or a freethinker; you will discover that the more you know the more indifferent you may become to any “ist”.

They are so sure of the solution, that the problem does not appear to be inexplicable, incomprehensible or bizarre. They seem to know so much about things of which I am ignorant.
