To ever be extraordinary, you must first be ordinary.
(And that's the name of that foot.)

One man says his most promising present area of inquiry is in asking himself,
"Are my genes as connected to external conditions as seem my thoughts?"
Ooo, what a query: In the struggle between hormones and neurons, in bouts
sanctioned by civilization, neurons are favored to win, while off in the private
lives of the few, a total reexamination of the situation is under way.
Within that misjudged conflict, the more awake do not seek a victory, but
rather a neutralization.

There are three levels regarding enlightenment:
the first level is when you want it, but aren't sure what it is, which leads to frustration;
the second level is when you've had some taste of enlightenment but can't hold on to
it, which produces double frustration; and then the third level of enlightenment,
which is post-apocalyptic, and can only occur after you are completely destroyed and silent.
This is why so little is heard from those most enlightened.

A traveling salesman once asked a mystic, "Why do you so often use the words
'little' and 'seldom' when what you obviously mean is 'none' and 'never'?"
...(And the mystic, being the enlightened dude he was, said nothing.)

Upon hearing someone say "ofttimes I feel under-appreciated,"
to himself a man reflected, "It seems to me that, once you begin to think
in terms of 'feelings,' feeling under-appreciated becomes inevitable."

Once your fanciful bakery is up and running,
all treats imaginable are possible.
