Although atoms can obviously communicate with planets,
many people still cannot conceive of the reverse.
(Which is one reason for the demise of the two-pants suit south of the equator.)

Those who believe that someone or something is "watching over them"
Should rent an educational video detailing the attitude that most statues have
toward pigeons and other flying myths.
One man began to think that he was now on the right train when the conductor
started committing suicide at every stop.

Certain myths say that man, long ago, was split into two parts, and that the purpose
of human existence is for each person to now locate their other half.
Which ain't a bad little story, but a more useful taking of the tale would be to
realize that the familiar ring to the myth resounds within each person individually,
and that there is no missing piece to be found, neither externally and certainly not internally.

The song "There Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens" is close...about as close
as any other sacred scripture.

The Universal Curse in a certain other universe is
"Division to those who division think."

There used to be a land here on Earth where some people lived who believed
that they would grow taller if they learned to kick themselves in both ankles simultaneously.
(I'm not positive, but I think this was the same bunch who claimed that
"the gods love a moron.")

And so was one chap moved to muse,
"No man is so dumb as when he stoops over to help a child,
and the child is him."
