Appendices Quotes

Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit - all of these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided. It’s the sound of failure: so much modern art is the sound of things going out of control, of a medium pushing to its limits and breaking apart. The distorted guitar sound is the sound of something too loud for the medium supposed to carry it. The blues singer with the cracked voice is the sound of an emotional cry too powerful for the throat that releases it. The excitement of grainy film, of bleached-out black and white, is the excitement of witnessing events too momentous for the medium assigned to record them.

... I regard the tale of Arwen and Aragorn as the most important of the Appendices [in Lord of The Rings]; it is part of the essential story, and is only placed so, because it could not be worked into the main narrative without destroying its structure ... [From letter 181]

Qualcuno, molto tempo fa, ha scritto che anche i libri, come gli esseri umani, hanno un loro destino, imprevedibile, diverso da quello che per loro si desiderava e si attendeva.

Most of the world's ills, it seemed to him, were caused by men who believed themselves important: on a good day it always ended in tears, on a bad day in global destruction. Oliver was not a man to start a war or provoke pestilence: his icons were the makers of music, the tellers of tales, the clowns and the balladeers, and all who celebrated life's footnotes, appendices and afterthoughts. Little Brown, London, 1994.

l’idée que les femmes sont des individus souverains, et non de simples appendices, des attelages en attente d’un cheval de trait, peine à se frayer un chemin dans les esprits – et pas seulement chez les politiciens conservateurs.

in the following Appendices, especially A to D, see the note at the end of the Prologue. The section A III, Durin’s Folk, was probably derived from Gimli the Dwarf, who maintained his friendship

Elle me lança le gant au visage. "Gibier de potence !" dit elle. "Petit malfrat !" Elle fit demi-tour et m'abandonna à mon sort. Je me séchai, enfilai un caleçon et entrai dans la cuisine. Elle était devant la cuisinière, le dos tourné, en train de préparer mon petit-déjeuner. L'expert des appendices charnus que je suis détecta aussitôt la contraction de ses fessiers - signe indubitable de fureur chez une femme. L'expérience m'a appris à me montrer extrêmement prudent en présence d'une métamorphose aussi spectaculaire des fessiers féminins, si bien que je m'assis sans moufter. J'avais l'impression d'affronter un serpent lové sur lui-même.

Tommy Cooper finds a painting and a violin in the attic; takes them to an expert who says, ‘You’ve got a Stradivarius and a Rembrandt. Unfortunately Stradivarius was a terrible painter and Rembrandt made awful violins.

Se comprendere è impossibile, conoscere è necessario, perchè ciò che è accaduto può ritornare, le coscienze possono nuovamente essere sedotte ed oscurate: anche le nostre. Per questo, meditare su quanto è avvenuto è un dovere di tutti. Tutti devono sapere, o ricordare, che Hitler e Mussolini, quando parlavano pubblicamente, venivano creduti, applauditi, ammirati, adorati come dei. Erano «capi carismatici», possedevno un segreto potere di seduzione che non procedeva dalla credibilità o dalla giustezza delle cose che dicevano, ma dal modo suggestivo con cui le dicevano, dalla loro eloquenza, dalla loro arte istrionica, forse istintiva, forse pazientemente esercitata e appresa. Le idee che proclamavano non erano sempre le stesse, e in generale erano aberranti, o sciocche, o crudeli; eppure vennero osannati, e seguiti fino alla loro morte da milioni di fedeli.

there is a way of separating one’s dreams from one’s life which so often produces good results that I ask myself whether one ought not, at all costs, to try it, simply as a preventive, just as certain surgeons make out that we ought, to avoid the risk of appendicitis later on, to have all our appendices taken out when we are children.

But a man whose business is sedentary should get some kind of exercise if he wishes to keep himself in as good physical trim as his brethren who do manual labor.

Dr. Brown has the ability to make complex matters easy to understand. His book has taken the topic of communication to a new level. The book is easy to read. The exercises and appendices provide both a practical learning approach and a depth of understanding of the subject..." Alberto DeFeo, Ph.D. (Law) Chief Administrative Officer of Lake Country and Adjunct Professor of University of Northern British Columbia

In 1973 the London Convention was replaced by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, known as CITES, which has 181 signatories. Comprised of three appendices that gauge the severity of threat to various species, CITES protects 35,000 species of plants and animals. Among them are nearly fifteen hundred birds, including Alfred Russel Wallace’s beloved King Bird of Paradise.

To the secular arm, therefore, be delivered any and every book which, catering for the youngsters, throttles the life of the old folktales with coils of explanatory notes, and heaps on their maimed corpses the dead weight of biographical appendices. Nevertheless, that which delighted our childhood may instruct our manhood; and notes, appendices, and all the gear of didactic exposition, have their place elsewhere in helping the student, anxious to reach the seed of fact which is covered by the pulp of fiction. For, to effect this is to make approach to man's thoughts and conceptions of himself and his surroundings, to his way of looking at things and to explanation of his conduct both in work and play. Hence the folk-tale and the game are alike pressed into the service of study of the human mind. Turn where we may, the pastimes of children are seen to mimic the serious pursuits of men.

Parlammo dei vari reparti che c’erano in giro. Simeone pareva sollecito e conciliante. «C’è posto anche per i badogliani» disse a un certo punto. «Il posto c’è» dissi io; «ma dove sono i badogliani?» «No» disse lui. «I badogliani che dico io siete voi.» «Tanti saluti» disse Enrico: «firmato Badoglio»; e si avviò con Dante per tornare al campo. L’uomo disse che doveva andare anche lui per le sue strade, ma io gli dissi: «Aspetta un momento», e mi misi a polemizzare con una certa foga. «Stammi bene a sentire» gli dissi. «Noi non siamo badogliani, anzi siamo nemici personali di Badoglio. Badoglio è una carogna.» Gli spiegai ben bene le mie vedute sul maresciallo e sui suoi colleghi, inoltre sul Re Imperatore e sul Principe di Piemonte; aggiunsi un appendice sui principini. «Dunque,» conclusi «se voi mettete fuori la chiacchiera che noi siamo badogliani, noi diremo che voi siete troskisti. Lo sai chi era Trotzki?» «Era una carogna» disse Simeone. «Sbagliato» dissi. «Era il creatore dell’Armata Rossa, il più bravo dei compagni di Lenin; era bravo più o meno come Lenin, e ancora più brillante.» «Non sarete mica troskisti?» disse Simeone. «Ma sì» dissi; «l’ala troskista dei badogliani.» «Dimmelo tu cosa siete» disse lui; io fui tentato di dirgli: deviazionisti crociani di sinistra, ma poi gli dissi brevemente che eravamo studenti, e con chi eravamo lì, e perché.

Questions for U2: ‘What record would you like to make – i.e. how would you like this to be read? How would you like to get there? Does it bother you if the result is ‘undemocratic’? How much cheating is allowed? How much me?’ Lincoln’s axe: ‘This is Lincoln’s original axe. The head has been replaced three times and the handle twice.

Perché nell’intimo del suo significato coltura (e così cultura) è cosa fa crescere, cosa eleva, cosa onora, cosa è profondamente legato al culto, allora quell’attività che si esercita sulle pianure del mondo, che sfigura la terra e la porta verso il deserto, che mortifica la diversità, che produce cibo corrotto, che intossica chi lo consuma e chi quella terra lavora, non può propriamente essere chiamata agricoltura. Si tratta, infatti, di un’attività erosiva, estrattiva, tesa al profitto, a volte speculativa, che sarebbe più chiaro e, per il valore delle parole, più rispettoso chiamare agriusura e pensarla semplicemente - così è oggi - come un’appendice dell’agrindustria.

What really happened to JonBenet Ramsey? Was her death intentional or an accident, covered up to look like a botched kidnapping? What are the facts about the case DNA? What does it really tell us? Is it relevant to the crime or is it contamination? Can it be tied to an intruder, or was Mary Lacy’s attempt at exoneration of the Ramseys based on faulty interpretation of the actual lab results? “Listen Carefully: Truth and Evidence in the JonBenet Ramsey Case” contains 16 pages of explosive DNA reports from Bode Cellmark Forensics that had been hidden until recently, as well details of the 2013 shocking revelation John and Patsy Ramsey were indicted by a Grand Jury in 1999, but the district attorney declined to prosecute. Exposing the many myths and misrepresentations of facts in the Ramsey case, the book uses documented evidence and detailed research, as well as extensive interviews with many who were involved in the case, to present the truth surrounding JonBenet’s death and the 20-year investigation. With a thorough linguistic analysis of the ransom note, as well as handwriting comparisons, crime-scene photos, footnotes, a bibliography for further reading and five appendices (including timelines, Ramsey house plans, and a guide to understanding DNA), the book is essential for anyone interested not only what happened to JonBenet, but why.

After having taken a long and hard look at the echelonment of the various appendices of the sexual function, the moment appears to have arrived to expound the central theorem of my apocritique. Unless you were to put a halt to the implacable unfolding of my reasoning with the objection that, good prince, I will permit you to formulate: "You take all your examples from adolescence, which is indeed an important period in life, but when all is said and done it only occupies an exceedingly brief fraction of this. Are you not afraid, then, that your conclusions, the finesse and rigour of which we admire, may ultimately turn out to be both partial and limited?" To this amiable adversary I will reply that adolescence is not only an important period in life, but that it is the only period where one may speak of life in the full sense of the word. The attractile drives are unleashed around the age of thirteen, after which they gradually diminish, or rather they are resolved in models of behaviour which are, after all, only constrained forces. The violence of the initial explosion means that the outcome of the conflict may remain uncertain for years; this is what is called a transitory regime in electrodynamics. But little by little the oscillations become slower, to the point of resolving themselves in mild and melancholic long waves; from this moment on all is decided, and life is nothing more than a preparation for death. This can be expressed in a more brutal and less exact way by saying that man is a diminished adolescent. 'After having taken a long and hard look at the echelonment of the various appendices of the sexual function, the moment seems to me to have come to expound the central theorem of my apocritique. For this I will utilize the lever of a condensed but adequate formulation, to wit: Sexuality is a system of social hierarchy

Yesterday, before the meeting with U2, I took the precaution of putting tiny sections of each of the 44 pieces of music we have in hand on to a single tape. All this means is that when somebody says ‘Drum Loop 14’ and someone else says ‘Which one was that?’ I can readily go to it without having to change tapes (which takes only a few more seconds but is annoying). This little precaution (which however took me nearly three hours to put together beforehand) expedited the whole thing so much, and changed the whole quality of the decisions being made. I tend to spend more and more of my time thinking how to set up situations so that they work – so that they can actually take less and less time. My ideal is probably based on that story I heard years ago of how the Japanese calligraphers used to work – a whole day spent grinding inks and preparing brushes and paper, and then, as the sun begins to go down, a single burst of fast and inspired action.

Records made ‘at one sitting’ sound so fresh now – because the rate of discovery and the emotional tempo match those of the listener. What’s infuriating, though, is how fragile those fabrics are. I’ve noticed that, trying to work on improvisations that have ‘something’, they very quickly dissolve into nothing the more attention they get. It’s almost like trying to reconstruct a very funny dinner party – you had to be there, and it’s impossible to isolate the chemistry of what really made it work.

[...] Pourtant, s’il n’existe pas de moyen infaillible pour permettre au futur disciple d’identifier un Maître authentique par une procédure mentale uniquement, il existe néanmoins cette maxime ésotérique universelle (127) que tout aspirant trouvera un guide authentique s’il le mérite. De même que cette autre maxime qu’en réalité, et en dépit des apparences, ce n’est pas celui qui cherche qui choisit la voie, mais la voie qui le choisit. En d’autres termes, puisque le Maître incarne la voie, il a, mystérieusement et providentiellement, une fonction active à l’égard de celui qui cherche, avant même que l’initiation établisse la relation maître-disciple. Ce qui permet de comprendre l’anecdote suivante, racontée par le Shaykh marocain al-’Arabî ad-Darqâwî (mort en 1823), l’un des plus grands Maîtres soufis de ces derniers siècles. Au moment en question, il était un jeune homme, mais qui représentait déjà son propre Shaykh, ’Alî al-Jamal, à qui il se plaignit un jour de devoir aller dans tel endroit où il craignait de ne trouver aucune compagnie spirituelle. Son Shaykh lui coupa la parole : « Engendre celui qu’il te faut! » Et un peu plus tard, il lui réitéra le même ordre, au pluriel : « Engendre-les! »(128) Nous avons vu que le premier pas dans la voie spirituelle est de « renaître »; et toutes ces considérations laissent entendre que nul ne « mérite » un Maître sans avoir éprouvé une certaine conscience d’« inexistence » ou de vide, avant-goût de la pauvreté spirituelle (faqr) d’où le faqîr tire son nom. La porte ouverte est une image de cet état, et le Shaykh ad-Darqâwî déclare que l’un des moyens les plus puissants pour obtenir la solution à un problème spirituel est de tenir ouverte « la porte de la nécessité »(129) et de prendre garde qu’elle ne se referme. On peut ainsi en déduire que ce « mérite » se mesurera au degré d’acuité du sens de la nécessité chez celui qui cherche un Maître, ou au degré de vacuité de son âme, qui doit être en effet suffisamment vide pour précipiter l’avènement de ce qui lui est nécessaire. Et soulignons pour terminer que cette « passivité » n’est pas incompatible avec l’attitude plus active prescrite par le Christ : « Cherchez et vous trouverez; frappez et l’on vous ouvrira », puisque la manière la plus efficace de « frapper » est de prier, et que supplier est la preuve d’un vide et l’aveu d’un dénuement, d’une « nécessité » justement. En un mot, le futur disciple a, aussi bien que le Maître, des qualifications à actualiser. 127. Voir, dans le Treasury of Traditional Wisdom de Whitall Perry, à la section réservée au Maître spirituel, pp. 288-95, les citations sur ce point particulier, de même que sur d’autres en rapport avec cet appendice. 128. Lettres d'un Maître soufi, pp. 27-28. 129. Ibid., p. 20. - Le texte dit : « porte de la droiture », erreur de traduction corrigée par l’auteur, le terme arabe ayant bien le sens de « nécessité », et même de « besoin urgent ». (NdT)

THE EARLIER UPANISADS (700 B.C.-600 B.C.) The place of the Upanisads in Vedic literature. Though it is generally held that the Upanisads are usually attached as appendices to the Âranyakas which are again attached to the Brâhmanas, yet it cannot be said that their distinction as separate treatises is always observed. Thus we find in some cases that subjects which we should expect to be discussed in a Brâhmana are introduced into the Âranyakas and the Âranyaka materials are sometimes fused into the great bulk of Upanisad teaching.

Reno then made his only error; he gave the command, “Retreat to your horses, men!

It was Custer’s practice to take the trail and follow it, locate the enemy and then strike home by a surprise attack.

« L’ouvrage de Rama P. Coomaraswamy, The Destruction of the Christian Tradition (...) est un exposé brillamment écrit et bien documenté sur ce qui s’est déroulé immédiatement avant, pendant et après le concile Vatican II. L’auteur s’intéresse avant tout à ce qui est orthodoxe et à ce qui est hérétique, et la manière tout à fait claire, directe et simple dont il traite son sujet est basée sur les décisions des précédents conciles et les déclarations des plus hautes autorités de l’Église à travers les siècles. Ce qu’il a écrit est suffisant et n’a pas besoin d’additifs. Mais, à partir d’un angle légèrement différent et en quelque sorte pour affronter les modernistes sur leur propre terrain, qui est celui de l’opportunisme psychique, nous voudrions néanmoins ajouter les remarques suivantes. Les responsables des changements en question ont fait valoir qu’une religion doit se conformer aux temps, à quoi on doit répondre : non, si se conformer veut dire cesser d’être soi-même et devenir complice des temps. La véritable conformité est différente : la médecine, par exemple, afin de se conformer à une époque, doit être capable de fournir des antidotes à tout ce qui se présente comme maladies. De même, il ne serait pas déraisonnable de maintenir qu’afin de se conformer à un âge caractérisé par de violents changements et des troubles désordonnés, la religion doit être plus préparée que jamais à manifester, et même à proclamer, son inébranlable stabilité sans laquelle, en tant que véhicule de la Vérité Éternelle, elle ne peut jamais être, en tout état de cause, fidèle à elle-même. Il ne fait guère de doute que l’âme humaine a profondément besoin dans son existence de quelque chose qui resterait toujours identique, et elle a le droit d’attendre de la religion qu’elle soit la constante infaillible qui satisfasse ce besoin. De telles considérations furent disséminées aux quatre vents par le concile Vatican II. Il n’est donc pas surprenant que celui-ci ait précipité une crise sans précédent. La gravité de la situation peut être mesurée, jusqu’à un certain point, par les chiffres suivants : de 1914 à 1963, il n’y eut que 810 prêtres qui demandèrent à l’Église Catholique la permission d’abandonner le sacerdoce, et parmi ces demandes 355 seulement furent acceptées. Depuis le concile, il y a eu plus de 32 000 défections au sein du clergé. Il faut considérer que ces chiffres se rapportent en partie à ceux qui sont coupables de la crise et en partie à ceux qui en sont les victimes ; en ce qui concerne ces dernières, qui sont des membres du clergé ou des laïques, il est significatif que non seulement l’usage de la liturgie traditionnelle a été découragé mais qu’il a même été expressément interdit. Cette stratégie aurait totalement échoué s’il n’y avait eu le fait que l’immense majorité des laïques — et ceci s’applique également dans une certaine mesure aux membres du clergé eux-mêmes — s’imaginent que l’obéissance due à la hiérarchie cléricale est absolue. L’un des grands mérites de l’ouvrage de Rama Coomaraswamy est de montrer à quel moment, selon la doctrine catholique strictement traditionnelle, l’obéissance devient un péché et à quel moment l’autorité, même celle d’un pape, devient nulle et non avenue. » [recension dans "Croyances anciennes et Superstitions modernes", Appendice II.]

Terry then said: ‘Use your own judgment, and do what you think best if you strike the trail; and, whatever you do, Custer, hold on to your wounded.

Two men, who on the previous day had lost their appendices, writhed from their beds and tried to get at the constable and his father with a view to murdering them. A chap with a broken thigh struggled to release himself from the blocks and tackle in which he was imprisoned and do the same. And a fellow of fifty who that day had had half his thyroid taken away started shouting for his mother.

For those interested in observing the gradual evolving of The Lord of the Rings from its earliest drafts to its published form, I highly recommend Christopher Tolkien’s account, which appears within five volumes of his twelve-volume series The History of Middle-earth. Volumes six through nine contain the major part of his study pertaining to The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the Shadow (1988); The Treason of Isengard (1989); The War of the Ring (1990); and Sauron Defeated (1992). Also, the final book of the series, The Peoples of Middle-earth (1996), covers the evolution of the prologue and appendices to The Lord of the Rings.

The great direction which Burton has left to men disordered like you, is this: Be not solitary; be not idle—which I would thus modify: If you are idle, be not solitary; if you are solitary, be not idle.

As kids, we were exposed to sexist, racist and violent cartoons and video games. We have been bombarded with images of thin females and hypermuscular males. Then we grew up and started to use Internet and then social media. For some of us, Internet has been a way to escape from loneliness, for some others it has bred loneliness. Then comes Facebook. It has been good for some of us and bad for some others. This is a place where the distinction between public space and private space has blurred. Our self-disclosure patterns have been modified. We share things that we are not supposed to share offline. Dad shot daughter’s laptop because of a letter on Facebook. Some of us built their self-esteem on how many ‘friends’ we have made on Facebook. Social media is everywhere. Nowhere else to go. Social media penetrates all aspects of our lives. This book is about this penetration. It can be read as a book for general public or as a textbook together with the educational materials provided in Appendices. It is unique in endorsing a psychological approach to social media. It tells the story of many of us. De te fabula narratur!

La cultura dello spreco mal si concilia con micro-realtà economiche, che per secoli hanno vissuto guardando all'etica della durata e del risparmio delle risorse. A meno che non si trasformi la montagna alpina nell'appendice periferica della città, alla stregua di un parco divertimenti e di uno spazio di evasione per il nuovo nomadismo metropolitano, esasperando la dimensione ludica e pseudo-sportiva

Veni, Sancte Spiritus (Come, Holy Spirit) Come, Holy Spirit, send down those beams, which sweetly flow in silent streams from Thy bright throne above. O come, Thou Father of the poor; O come, Thou source of all our store, come, fill our hearts with love. O Thou, of comforters the best, O Thou, the soul’s delightful guest, the pilgrim’s sweet relief. Rest art Thou in our toil, most sweet refreshment in the noonday heat; and solace in our grief. O blessed Light of life Thou art; fill with Thy light the inmost heart of those who hope in Thee. Without Thy Godhead nothing can, have any price or worth in man, nothing can harmless be. Lord, wash our sinful stains away, refresh from heaven our barren clay, our wounds and bruises heal. To Thy sweet yoke our stiff necks bow, warm with Thy fire our hearts of snow, our wandering feet recall. Grant to Thy faithful, dearest Lord, whose only hope is Thy sure word, the sevenfold gifts of grace. Grant us in life Thy grace that we, in peace may die and ever be, in joy before Thy face. Amen. Alleluia. Appendices APPENDIX A How to Make the 33-Day Preparation and Consecration to St.

valu ma place. À bien des points de vue, je ressemblais à Herr Nagel. Pas moyen de dire, d’un instant à l’autre, ce que j’allais faire. Pas moyen de savoir si j’étais un saint ou un monstre. Comme tant d’hommes extraordinaires de notre époque, Herr Nagel était un désespéré – et c’était ce désespoir même qui avait fait de lui un type si charmant. Hamsun, lui-même, ne savait que faire de son personnage : il était sûr qu’il existait, sûr qu’il y avait en lui mieux qu’un simple bouffon et qu’un mystificateur. Je crois qu’il adorait Herr Nagel plus qu’aucun autre personnage qu’il eût jamais créé. Pourquoi ? Parce que dans Herr Nagel il y avait le saint inavoué qu’il y a en tout artiste – l’homme que l’on tourne en ridicule parce que les solutions qu’il apporte, qui sont vraiment profondes, ont l’air trop simples aux yeux du monde. Personne ne désire être un artiste – on y est poussé dans la mesure où le monde refuse de reconnaître que l’on montre la bonne voie et de suivre. Travailler n’avait aucun sens pour moi, parce que, face au véritable travail, on prenait la tangente. Les gens me trouvaient paresseux et changeant ; au contraire, je débordais d’activité. Ne fût-il question que de lever une femme, c’était toujours ça, et cela valait le coup, qui plus est, surtout si on le comparait aux autres formes d'activité – fabriquer des boutons, par exemple, ou visser des écrous, ou même trancher des appendices.

il lavoro, non avendo altra finalità se non quella di concorrere all’incremento infinito della produzione, non sarebbe più il luogo in cui l’uomo, realizzandosi, incontra se stesso, le sue capacità, le sue ideazioni, l’attuazione della sua progettualità, ma solo il luogo in cui l’uomo tocca con mano la sua strumentalità, il suo essere semplice appendice delle macchine, che nel loro insieme compongono l’apparato tecnico-economico, interessato soltanto al proprio potenziamento e non alle sorti dell’uomo.

The canonical Vinaya literature, i.e. that found within the Vinaya Piṭaka, falls into two, sometimes three, sections: the Sūtravibhaṅga, the Skandhaka, and the Appendices.

Do the Scriptures so perfectly contain all things necessary to salvation that there is no need of unwritten (agraphois) traditions after it? We affirm against the papists On the state of the question consider: (1) that the question is not whether the Scriptures contain all those things which were said or done by Christ and the saints or have any connection whatever with religion. We acknowledge that many things were done by Christ which are not recorded (Jn. 20:30); also that many things occurred as appendices and supports of religion which are not particularly mentioned in the Scriptures and were left to the prudence of the rulers of the church who (according to the direction of Paul, 1 Cor. 14:40) should see that all things be done decently in the church. The question relates only to things necessary to salvation—whether they belong to faith or to practice; whether all these things are so contained in the Scriptures that they can be a total and adequate rule of faith and practice (which we maintain and our opponents deny).

Modern philosophy is merely a series of appendices to Kantian thought.

Because we treat the first two-thirds of the Bible as historical appendices, we miss all that the Bible has to offer about worship.

Come l'appendice, l'immaginazione è un'eredità lasciataci da un'epoca primitiva, quando contribuiva alla sopravvivenza della nostra specie, ma nelle nazioni scientifiche e industriali moderne costituisce soprattutto una fonte di malattie.

I hope that, like Schwinger, Weinberg, Wilczek, Hobson (and me), you will choose a reality made of quantum fields - properties of space that are described by the equations of QFT. This is a picture that resolves all three of Einstein's enigmas (see Appendices), a picture that solves the action-at-a-distance problem that even Newton found unacceptable, a picture based on simple and elegant equations (take my word for that), a picture that explains or is consistent with all the data known to date. And on top of that, QFT provides the most philosophically acceptable picture of nature that I can imagine.

Quella che un tempo i filosofi chiamavano vita, si è ridotta alla sfera del privato, e poi del puro e semplice consumo, che non è più se non un’appendice del processo materiale della produzione, senza autonomia e senza sostanza propria.

The appendices of what you don’t know about me could fill the Grand Canyon to overflowing, Huw,

When the mind has a tendency to dream, it is a mistake to keep dreams away from it, to ration its dreams. So long as you distract your mind from its dreams, it will not know them for what they are; you will always be being taken in by the appearance of things, because you will not have grasped their true nature. If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time. One must have a thorough understanding of one’s dreams if one is not to be troubled by them; there is a way of separating one’s dreams from one’s life which so often produces good results that I ask myself whether one ought not, at all costs, to try it, simply as a preventive, just as certain surgeons make out that we ought, to avoid the risk of appendicitis later on, to have all our appendices taken out when we are children.

Come inizia l'intervista a Pierre Klossowski, in appendice all'edizione ES de Il Bafometto: K: Io non sono né un romanziere né un filosofo, e nemmeno un artista: io sono un maniaco. Ognuna delle mie opere nasce da una mia mania. Int: Una sola mania per tutte le opere, oppure per ognuna di esse una specifica mania? K: La "monomania" consiste nel mettere instancabilmente in evidenza una sola e medesima cosa, nell'esporre una sola e una fisionomia, una sola e medesima scena ripetuta nelle sue variazioni infinite... La "monomania" rincomincia sempre, all'infinito. Al momento opportuno ritorna al punto di partenza. Si tratta di legittimare la monomania per mezzo dell'arte, di sottomettere la tensione a esibire a una pratica specifica, a una disciplina.

J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings is often erroneously called a trilogy, when it is in fact a single novel, consisting of six books plus appendices, sometimes published in three volumes.

I didn’t get around to reading the Lord of the Rings until after I saw Peter Jackson’s movie adaptations, which I thought did a much better job of telling the story than the books. I know the text is legendary and deeply beloved, but it is also slo-ow. It takes forever to get going. Frodo waits something like five years between discovering the ring and leaving the shire. Many characters get little or no introduction, important things happen in flashback or get relegated to the appendices, and the villain never even actually makes an appearance. The real central message isn’t about friendship or singsongy environmentalism, but is something that the late wife of William Burroughs could certainly appreciate: never trust a junkie. Conventional

«Per così dire», iva. Mi piace questa parola, iva. Dev'essere sanscrito. Certe cose Calasso le sa. Davanti a tipi come lui che capiscono il sanscrito non puoi che restare a bocca aperta. In ogni caso, ben venga l'apologetico quando si è davanti all'approssimativo. O al titubante. O al decisamente arrischiato. Ogni traduzione dovrebbe avere iva in appendice.

Yeah, I know, the first-born is usually the anal worrier, but somehow my brother and I reversed roles on that. He’s chill and I stress—about grades, parents, ruptured appendices, venomous snakes, leprosy, girls, global warming, the national debt, the meaning of life, the meaning of death…

The beautiful is good; and if a thing's not beautiful it isn't good.

II L'Association bretonne. Il est une institution qui distingue la Bretagne des autres provinces et où se réflète son génie, l'Association bretonne. Dans ce pays couvert encore de landes et de terres incultes, et où il reste tant de ruines des anciens âges, des hommes intelligents ont compris que ces deux intérêts ne devaient pas être séparés, les progrès de l'agriculture et l'étude des monuments de l'histoire locale. Les comices agricoles ne s'occupent que des travaux d'agriculture, les sociétés savantes que de l'esprit; l'Association bretonne les a réunis: elle est à la fois une association agricole et une association littéraire. Aux expériences de l'agriculture, aux recherches archéologiques, elle donne de la suite et de l'unité; les efforts ne sont plus isolés, ils se font avec ensemble; l'Association bretonne continue, au XIXe siècle, l'oeuvre des moines des premiers temps du christianisme dans la Gaule, qui défrichaient le sol et éclairaient les âmes. Un appel a été fait dans les cinq départements de la Bretagne à tous ceux qui avaient à coeur les intérêts de leur patrie, aux écrivains et aux propriétaires, aux gentilshommes et aux simples paysans, et les adhésions sont arrivées de toutes parts. L'Association a deux moyens d'action: un bulletin mensuel, et un congrès annuel. Le bulletin rend compte des travaux des associés, des expériences, des essais, des découvertes scientifiques; le congrès ouvre des concours, tient des séances publiques, distribue des prix et des récompenses. Afin de faciliter les réunions et d'en faire profiter tout le pays, le congrès se tient alternativement dans chaque département; une année à Rennes, une autre à Saint-Brieuc, une autre fois à Vitré ou à Redon; en 1858, il s'est réuni à Quimper. A chaque congrès, des questions nouvelles sont agitées, discutées, éclaircies[1]: ces savants modestes qui consacrent leurs veilles à des recherches longues et pénibles, sont assurés que leurs travaux ne seront pas ignorés; tant d'intelligences vives et distinguées, qui demeureraient oisives dans le calme des petites villes, voient devant elles un but à leurs efforts; la publicité en est assurée, ils seront connus et appréciés. D'un bout de la province à l'autre, de Rennes à Brest, de Nantes à Saint-Malo, on se communique ses oeuvres et ses plans; tel antiquaire, à Saint-Brieuc, s'occupe des mêmes recherches qu'un autre à Quimper: il est un jour dans l'année où ils se retrouvent, où se resserrent les liens d'études et d'amitié. [Note 1: Voir l'Appendice.] Le congrès est un centre moral et intellectuel, bien plus, un centre national: ces congrès sont de véritables assises bretonnes; ils remplacent les anciens États: on y voit réunis, comme aux États, les trois ordres, le clergé, la noblesse et le tiers-état, le tiers-état plus nombreux qu'avant la Révolution, et de plus, mêlés aux nobles et aux bourgeois, les paysans. La Bretagne est une des provinces de France où les propriétaires vivent le plus sur leurs terres; beaucoup y passent l'année tout entière. De là une communauté d'habitudes, un échange de services, des relations plus familières et plus intimes, qui n'ôtent rien au respect d'une part, à la dignité de l'autre. Propriétaires et fermiers, réunis au congrès, sont soumis aux mêmes conditions et jugés par les mêmes lois; souvent le propriétaire concourt avec son fermier. Dans ces mêlées animées, où l'on se communique ses procédés, où l'on s'aide de ses conseils, où l'on distribue des prix et des encouragements, les riches propriétaires et les nobles traitent les paysans sur le pied de l'égalité; ici, la supériorité est au plus habile: c'est un paysan, Guévenoux, qui, en 1857, eut les honneurs du congrès de Redon. Voici quatorze ans que l'Association bretonne existe; l'ardeur a toujours été en croissant; les congrès sont devenus des solennités: on y vient de tous les points

So potter with potter contendeth: the hewer of wood with the hewer of wood: the beggar is jealous of the beggar, the ministrel is jealous of the ministrel.

Evil one may attain easily and in abundance: smooth is the way and it dewlleth very nigh. But in front of virtue have the dealthless gods set sweat: long is the way thereto and steep and rough at first. But when one hath reached the top, easy is it thereafter despite its hardness.

For if aught untoward happen in the township, the neighbours come ungirt, the kinsmen gird themselves.

The cherubim were never intended as an object of worship, because they were only the appendices to another thing. But a thing is then proposed as an object of worship, when it is set up by itself, and not by way of addition or ornament to another thing.Stillingfleet’sDefence of Discourses on Romish Idolatry.

Human bodies are extremely complicated and over the years I learned three important things about them, none of which I had been taught by lecturers or professors at my medical school. First, I learned that no two bodies are identical and there are an infinite number of variations. Not even twins are truly identical. When I first started to study medicine I used to think how much easier it would be for us all (doctors and patients) if bodies came with an owner's manual, but the more I learned about medicine the more I realised that such a manual would have to contain so many variations, footnotes and appendices that it wouldn't fit into the British Museum let alone sit comfortably on the average bookshelf. Even if manuals were individually prepared they would still be too vast for practical use. However much we may think we know about illness and health there will always be exceptions; there will always be times when our prognoses and predictions are proved wrong. Second, I learned that the human body has enormous, hidden strengths, and far greater power than most of us ever realise. We tend to think of ourselves as being delicate and vulnerable. But, in practice, our bodies are tougher than we imagine, far more capable of coping with physical and mental stresses than most of us realise. Very few of us know just how strong and capable we can be. Only if we are pushed to our limits do we find out precisely what we can do. Third, I learned that our bodies are far better equipped for selfdefence than most of us imagine, and are surprisingly well-equipped with a wide variety of protective mechanisms and self-healing systems which are designed to keep us alive and to protect us when we find ourselves in adverse circumstances. The human body is designed for survival and contains far more automatic defence mechanisms, designed to protect its occupant when it is threatened, than any motor car. To give the simplest of examples, consider what happens when you cut yourself. First, blood will flow out of your body for a few seconds to wash away any dirt. Then special proteins will quickly form a protective net to catch blood cells and form a clot to seal the wound. The damaged cells will release special substances into the tissues to make the area red, swollen and hot. The heat kills any infection, the swelling acts as a natural splint - protecting the injured area. White cells are brought to the injury site to swallow up any bacteria. And, finally, scar tissue builds up over the wounded site. The scar tissue will be stronger than the original, damaged area of skin. Those were the three medical truths I discovered for myself. Over the years I have seen many examples of these three truths. But one patient always comes into my mind when I think about the way the human body can defy medical science, prove doctors wrong and exhibit its extraordinary in-built healing power.

For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. (Jer 29:11)

Philosophy begins by asking the question "Why?" As humanity meets myriad phenomena and objects. That is, it starts from asking the question "why is this?" About all phenomena and things, and trying to give a rational answer to it. This is now a problem consciousness shared by virtually all disciplines, and philosophy can soon be regarded as the source of many other disciplines.

Therefore, it is often explained more in detail than the Korean guidebook. [3] Because it is a book for people from all over the world, there are local boards in Korea that have no guidebooks. For example, Central Asia. With the exception of The World, which has a language conversation house and other special guidebooks and general tourist information from all countries around the world, it is generally published in three categories: a regional guidebook - a country guidebook - a city guidebook, [4] The amount of information is, of course, increasing as the range of treatment is narrowed. Russia, for example, is covered in Eastern Europe, the guidebook for the country, Russia, the guidebook for the country, and Moscow - Saint Petersburg, the city guidebook. There is also a special guidebook, the Trans - Siberian Railway. In the United States, where the largest number of countries are issued, the five-tiered configuration can be seen in the United States - US West - California - California Coast - San Francisco. There are even guidebooks for different national parks in North America. On the other hand, North Korea comes out with a bill (...) in Pyongyang guidebook. The extreme courses, Brunei and Luxembourg, which are very small, are treated like appendices of Malaysia and Belgium, respectively. Travelable areas can be found both in the National Guide Book or in the Regions Guide Book. In the case of Iraq, which is the most unreachable area, it is also included in the guidebook of the Middle East centered on Kurdistan which is practically possible to travel. Somalia has Somaliland in Ethiopia & Djibouti. On the other hand, popular attractions such as France and London are revised every two years, and the top tourist attractions, such as Rome, were revised in 2013 and 2014. Even if it is somewhat unpopular, it will be revised for up to 5 years. In Korea, Lonely Planet does not have much of a mistake, but there are opinions that it is too old for price information or many reasons. [5] If you read it carefully, there are a lot of things that you feel are not written for "travelers", but for those who came to "foreign language instructors". And even if Korea is small, there are some opinions that the amount is too poor for the guidebooks of the two Koreas. One of the advantages of Korea is that public transportation is cheap and well developed, and travel information is concentrated only in certain areas of Seoul.

The Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, of Washington, DC, conservative cold warriors, in one of their Cold War International History Project Working Papers (no. 58, p. 9) states: ‘The open border in Berlin exposed the GDR [East Germany] to massive espionage and subversion and, as the two documents in the appendices show, its closure gave the Communist state greater security.’ Throughout the 1950s, the East Germans and the Soviet Union repeatedly lodged complaints with the Soviets’ erstwhile allies in the West and with the United Nations about specific sabotage and espionage activities and called for the closure of the offices in West Germany they claimed were responsible, and for which they provided names and addresses. Their complaints fell on deaf ears. Inevitably, the East Germans began to tighten up entry into the country from the West, leading eventually to the infamous Wall. However, even after the wall was built there was regular, albeit limited, legal emigration from east to west.

According to Joseph Needham, li is not a mechanical order or “a pattern thought of as something dead . . . it is dynamic pattern as embod- ied in living things, and in human relationships and in the highest human values.”⁵⁸ This idea is closely aligned with the notion of logos or “pattern” in the West, yet it derives from ideas found in the appendices of the an- cient divinatory text, the Yi Jing (I Ching) or Book of Changes.
