Reminder Number Three Thousand And Three (Or Reminder Number Seven,
Brought Up For The Four Hundred And Twenty-Ninth Time,
According To How You Want To Look At It):
No matter what the mind is apparently talking about,
it's always talking about itself.

'Tis long been claimed that those seeking to be satisfied should be without desires,
but if this is presently beyond your ability, then do this. Turn all of your desires into
just one desire, then write it on a piece of toilet paper and save it for an opportune moment.

A speaker so addressed an assembly gathered for the purpose:
"I say, to those of you who wish to 'do good' for your fellow man, there is but one way,
and that is do not think about your fellow man."

Only cows, sheep, and incomplete people have heroes -- not real men.
Cars are only added to trains not yet at their destination -- additional

There was once a universe in which its creator, rather than periodically loosing the plague,
instead let rain down, upon the still developing, proverbs and maxims, which most people
readily accepted as mental nourishment... which they were able (under present conditions)
to construe as an actual form of growth.

One alligator cut his eyes toward another alligator beside him and said,
"You know you're in for a meatless dry spell when they send philosophers to feed you."

It is difficult to say with certainty if that which the few seek actually comes
and goes or whether perhaps it just is, with no movement at all involved
(which would account for the problem men profess they have in seeing it).
