Measure twice

Be here now or get there there later.

I cut and I cut and it is still too short....

 

Strive always to provoke and not to offend, unless, of course, offensiveness is the proper tool for the job.

Most of my favorites are pulled from movies. My go to for the past couple years when I feel like giving up from dealing with my Mom's passing and the legal hoops of closing her estate (still dealing with for the past year), and becoming the primary care giver for my 56 yo brother who is autistic comes from Willy Wonka. When they are trapped in the shrinking hallway:

Sam Beauregarde: Come on, Violet. We're getting out of here.
Willy Wonka: Oh, you can't get out backwards. You've got to go forwards to go back, better press on...

And Gandalf:  All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Never apologize, never explain.

if you can't explain it

you don't understand it

I don't understand, Bss. Can you explain?

((( RONGEO ))) That's so much to be dealing with. SO much. Wishing you the knowledge of which way is out...

Fuck art. Let's dance.

In my case, Art Saves Lives. And keep dancing.

> In my case, Art Saves Lives.

judit, Fuck Art, Let's Dance was a punk thing from the late 70s/early 80s that targeted the conventional (and increasingly commercialized) Art (with a capital A) world, and not the kind that saves lives, which of course, I'm a big fan of too.

Living after midnight
Rocking to the dawn
Loving 'til the morning
Then I'm gone

 

Mike, Fuck Art, Let's Dance was not just punk back then, it was ubiquitous and fun to play with.

I first saw a sign saying 'Art Saves Lives'  in a tiny, below ground rubber stamp shop (stamps for art and office use) in Amsterdam in the '70s. The phrase became my words to live by.

> it was ubiquitous

Gotcha. I ran into it in Greenwich Village in the late 70s and didn't know how widespread it was. And of course I'm not anti-art, but I do like provocative things.

^ As do I.

Provocateurs ... I think that's part of what we're on earth for; it's our life and job.

When I was a medical receptionist I felt it was my responsibility to not only do the usual things in my job description but also to provoke and spark people to thought. It was my peace work. Keep it going!

Cut the thinker of thoughts and recollections

Make vividly clear that no objective entities can be established

The more you know, the less you don't know

I don't even know what I don't even know.

Sometimes I don't even know what I know.

I have no way of knowing this for sure but I think when I cease to exist so will everyone and everything else. This is my universe and you are all just a part of it. 

 Because it's there.
