It was just suggested that the appropriate quote for me comes from Harry Potter, "It's the wizard, not the wand."




littlewonder -> RE: What quote describes you best and why? (12/15/2010 6:28:19 PM)

this:

She tackles everyday life with a perverted innocence that just makes you want to give her a big hug and then stand back quickly while checking to see if everything is still attached.

What matters most is how well you walk through the fire.
The tagline for the film Factotum

It must be because I like the film so much.

Great movie. Part of it was filmed in my office. Matt Dillon was an obnoxious little prick, but it was a fun week despite his arrogant pomposity.

“When I get a little money I buy books; and if any is left I buy food and clothes.”--Erasmus

my career of choice is in books, my primary art mostly revolves around making them or the stuff that goes in them, my hobbies revolve around reading and collecting them, my volunteer service revolves around getting them to people or people into them, my daily conversations tend to steer toward them as the subject, my life choices revolve around whether they are present, and i do what's stated in that quote on a regular basis.

"The invention of the wheel was perhaps rather obvious; but the invention of an invisible wheel, made of nothing but a magnetic field, was far from obvious." -Reginald Kapp

In the fields of information theory, physics, memetics and mathematics... the things I see will simply not make sense to the general population for a long, long time. Every attempt to communicate this worldview, except in the vaguest of terms, meets blank stares and abject confusion. It can get disheartening after a while; to even find a challenge that proves the opposite case, I must at least be able to express it in a comprehensible and comprehensive way, and the more of one, the less of the other; or so it seems. It's something I consider a personal failure; Einstein was able to get Planck on board, but Tesla couldn't get his vision realized. I'd rather be E than T... but T I am, for the moment. And in a medium far less tangible.

Tu deviens responsable pour toujours de ce que tu as apprivoisé..  You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.  It's from Le Petite Prince.  I read it in high school and that quote has always stuck with me.
