A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this?-And-how many of us do know it? Not Lotze. Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses...what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse the truth...? But, he thought, what does it mean, insane? A legal definition. What do I mean? I feel it, see it, but what is it? He thought, it is something they do, something they are. It is their unconsciousness. Their lack of knowledge about others. Their not being aware of what they do to others, the destruction they have caused and are causing. No, he thought. That isn't it. I don't know; I sense it, inuit it. But-they are purposely cruel...is that it? No. God, he thought, I can't find it, make it clear. Do they ignore parts of reality? Yes. But it is more. It is their plans. Yes, their plans. The conquering of the planets. Something frenzied and demented, as was their conquering of Africa, and before that, Europe and Asia. Their view; it is cosmic. Not of man here, a child there, but an abstraction: race, land. Volk. Land. Blut. Ehre. Not of honorable men but of Ehre itself, honor; the abstract is real, the actual is invisible to them. Die Gute, but not good men, this good man. It is their sense of space and time. They see through the here, the now, into the vast black deep beyond, the unchanging. And that is fatal to life. Because eventually there will be no life; there was once only the dust particles in space, the hot hydrogen gases, nothing more, and it will come again. This is an interval, ein Augenblick. The cosmic process is hurrying on, crushing life back into the granite and methane; the wheel turns for all life. It is all temporary. And they-these madmen-respond to the granite, the dust, the longing of the inanimate; they want to aid Natur. And, he thought, I know why. They want to be the agents, not the victims, of history. They identify with God's power and believe they are godlike. That is their basic madness. They are overcome by some archetype; their egos have expanded psychotically so that they cannot tell where they begin and the godhead leaves off. it is not hubris, not pride; it is inflation of the ego to its ultimate-confusion between him who worships and that which is worshiped. Man has not eaten God; God has eaten man. What they do not comprehend is man's helplessness. I am weak, small, of no consequence to the universe. It does not notice me; I live on unseen. But why is that bad? Isn't it better that way? Whom the gods notice they destroy. Be small...and you will escape the jealousy of the great.
Philip K. Dick (The Man in the High Castle)
Seine Ehre kann auch der Arme behalten, nicht aber der Schlechte.
Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
Denn was auch immer auf Erden besteht, besteht durch Ehre und Treue. Wer heute die alte Pflicht verrät, verrät auch morgen die neue.
Adalbert Stifter
When glance turns To a sky-blue clear day, When the purplr-red sun Sinks low at sirocco, Here nature bestows glory, Joy, sound to eye and heart, And we find in color lore, The universal truth. - - - GER: Wenn der Blick an heitern Tagen Sich zur Himmelsbläue lenkt, Beim Sirok der Sonnenwagen Purpurrot sich niedersenkt, Da gebt der Natur die Ehre, Froh, an Aug und Herz gesund, Und erkennt der Farbenlehre Allgemeinen, ewigen Grund. Zahme Xenien VI.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (Xenien)
Ich halte es mit der Gelehrsamkeit wie die Fürsten mit der Verräterei: Ich ehre die Gelehrsamkeit und verachte die Gelehrten, die eben nichts als Gelehrte sind.
Franz Grillparzer
Nichtswürdig ist die Nation, die nicht Ihr Alles freudig setzt an ihre Ehre!
Friedrich Schiller
Princess Alessandra did not allow the prison to change her. Instead, she let ehr strength of character change the prison-or, more accurately, the other prisonners.
Tricia Goyer (Trust the Stars)
Is it odd to picnic at one's mother's grave? To sit up on the cliff and trickle pebbles over the ledge and listen to them bounce until they disappear? To eat an apple, to feel the sun, and to remember her, she who gave so much that it will never diminish? Is it odd to live with ehr in you, to continue to share your days and thoughts with the presence of her loving spirit?
Rick Bass (The Sky, The Stars, The Wilderness)
You care about me. We're in a room together, with a hundred other people, and you know ehre I am, who I'm talking to. We enjoy each other. We're a bit alike, but different enough. You see things in me that you don't see in your wife and you know, deep down, that if we had met in another time, when it wasn't impossible for anything to happen between us, that we could have had something. And you think it might have been spetacular. And you know you might be a different person if you were with me, and that scares the hell out of you. And when youve had a few drinks, you fancy the arse off me." (...) He gave her a little sideways smile. "Nearly right." She raised an eyebrow. God, this felt good. (...) "Just to be sure we're both clear on this, I'm about to kiss you, Lucy.
Elizabeth Noble
Alles in der Welt läuft doch auf eine Lumperey hinaus, und ein Kerl, der um anderer willen, ohne daß es seine eigene Leidenschaft ist, sich um Geld, oder Ehre, oder sonst was, abarbeitet, ist immer ein Thor.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (Die Leiden des jungen Werthers)
Their view; it is cosmic. Not of a man here, a child there, but an abstraction: race, land. Volk. Land. Blut. Ehre. Not of honorable men but of Ehre itself, honor; the abstract is real, the actual is invisible to them. Die Güte, but not good men, this good man. It is their sense of space and time. They see through the here, the now, into the vast black deep beyond, the unchanging. And that is fatal to life. Because eventually there will be no life; there was once only the dust particles in space, the hot hydrogen gases, nothing more, and it will come again. This is an interval, ein Augenblick. The cosmic process is hurrying on, crushing life back into the granite and methane; the wheel turns for all life. It is all temporary. And they—these madmen—respond to the granite, the dust, the longing of the inanimate; they want to aid Natur.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (Die Leiden Des Jungen Werther)
Gut verloren – etwas verloren! Mußt rasch dich besinnen Und neues gewinnen. Ehre verloren – viel verloren! Mußt Ruhm gewinnen, Da werden die Leute sich anders besinnen. Mut verloren – alles verloren! Da wär es besser: nicht geboren.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
But, he thought, what does it mean, insane? A legal definition. What do I mean? I feel it, see it, but what is it? He thought, It is something they do, something they are. It is their unconsciousness. Their lack of knowledge about others. Their not being aware of what they do to others, the destruction they have caused and are causing. No, he thought. That isn't it. I don't know; I sense it, I intuit it. But -- they are purposelessly cruel... is that it? No, God, he thought. I can't find it, make it clear. Do they ignore parts of reality? Yes. But it is more. It is their plans. Yes, their plans. The conquering of the planets. Something frenzied and demented, as was their conquering of Africa, and before that, Europe and Asia. Their view; it is cosmic. Not a man here, a child there, but an abstraction : race, land. Volk. Land. Blut. Ehre. Not of honourable men but of Ehre itself, hounor; the abstract is real, the actual is invisible to them. Die Güte, but not good men, this good man. It is their sense of space and time.

Ich kenne dich«, sagte Eddie. »Ich habe eine Menge von deinesgleichen gesehen. Du bist nichts weiter als ein Narr, der mit einer Flagge in einer und einer Kanone in der anderen Hand ›vorwärts, ihr christliche Soldaten‹ singt. Ich will keine Ehre. Ich will nur ein Brathähnchen und einen Schuss. In dieser Reihenfolge.
Stephen King (The Drawing of the Three (The Dark Tower, #2))
Wenn Klugheit vor allem auf praktischer Erfahrung beruht, wem wird dann die Ehre dieser Bezeichnung mehr zustehen? Dem Weisen, der teils aus Scham, teils aus Ängstlichkeit, sich an nichts wagt? Oder dem Toren, dem weder Scham, die ihm abgeht, noch Gefahr, die er nicht in Betracht zieht, von irgendeiner Herausforderung abschreckt?
Erasmus (Das Lob der Torheit: Mit zahlreichen Original-Illustrationen (German Edition))
Der SS-Bonze schreit: "Und Sie wollen eine deutsche Frau mit Ehre sein? Und halten zu diesem Judenschwein! Das ist eine Schande!" Und da ist meine Mutter auch aufgesprungen und hat gesagt: "JA! Gerade weil ich eine aufrechte, deutsche Frau bin, weil ich Treue und Ehre im Leibe habe, halte ich zu dem Mann, den ich liebe und der der Vater meines Kindes ist.
Nina Schröder (Die Frauen der Rosenstrasse. Hitlers unbeugsame Gegnerinnen.)
Die Ehre ist nicht die Meinung von besonderen, diesem Subjekt allein zukommenden Eigenschaften, sondern nur von den der Regel nach vorauszusetzenden, als welche auch ihm nicht abgehen sollen. Sie besagt daher nur, daß dies Subjekt keine Ausnahme mache, während der Ruhm besagt, daß es eine mache. Ruhm muß daher erst erworben werden, die Ehre hingegen braucht bloß nicht verloren zu gehen.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Wenn Imam Ali ibn 'Alawi "Assalamu 'alaika ayyuhan-nabiyyu wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh!" sagte, so hörte er den Propheten (der Frieden und Salah gelten ihm) antworten: "Wa 'alaikumus-salam!" Der Imam wiederholte dann den Friedensgruß, bis er den Propheten folgendes antworten hörte: "Wa 'alaykas-salam ya shaykh!" Die Gelehrten haben darauf hingewiesen, dass es eine weitere Ehre für ihn war, dass der Prophet (der Frieden und Salah gelten ihm) ihn mit den Namen Shaykh angesprochen hat.
Mostafa al-Badawi
It is—their unconsciousness. Their lack of knowledge about others. Their not being aware of what they do to others, the destruction they have caused and are causing. [...] Do they ignore parts of reality? Yes. But it is more. It is their plans. Yes, their plans. The conquering of the planets. Something frenzied and demented, as was their conquering of Africa, and before that, Europe and Asia. Their view; it is cosmic. Not of a man here, a child there, but an abstraction: race, land. Volk. Land. Blut. Ehre. Not of honorable men but of Ehre itself, honor; the abstract is real, the actual is invisible to them. Die Güte, but not good men, this good man. It is their sense of space and time. They see through the here, the now, into the vast black deep beyond, the unchanging. And that is fatal to life.

Philip K. Dick (The Man in the High Castle)
»O du Gott im Himmel, vergib mir, was ich getan; ich war ein Kind ... Aber nein, nein, ich war kein Kind, ich war alt genug, um zu wissen, was ich tat. Ich hab es auch gewußt, und ich will meine Schuld nicht kleiner machen, ... aber das ist zuviel. Denn das hier, mit dem Kinde, das bist nicht du, Gott, der mich strafen will, das ist er, bloß er! Ich habe geglaubt, daß er ein edles Herz habe, und habe mich immer klein neben ihm gefühlt; aber jetzt weiß ich, daß er es ist, er ist klein. Und weil er klein ist, ist er grausam. Alles, was klein ist, ist grausam. Das hat er dem Kinde beigebracht, ein Schulmeister war er immer, Crampas hat ihn so genannt, spöttisch damals, aber er hat recht gehabt. '0 gewiß, wenn ich darf.' Du brauchst nicht zu dürfen; ich will euch nicht mehr, ich hasse euch, auch mein eigen Kind. Was zuviel ist, ist zuviel. Ein Streber war er, weiter nichts. – Ehre, Ehre, Ehre ... und dann hat er den armen Kerl totgeschossen, den ich nicht einmal liebte und den ich vergessen hatte, weil ich ihn nicht liebte. Dummheit war alles, und nun Blut und Mord. Und ich schuld. Und nun schickt er mir das Kind, weil er einer Ministerin nichts abschlagen kann, und ehe er das Kind schickt, richtet er's ab wie einen Papagei und bringt ihm die Phrase bei 'wenn ich darf'. Mich ekelt, was ich getan; aber was mich noch mehr ekelt, das ist eure Tugend. Weg mit euch. Ich muß leben, aber ewig wird es ja wohl nicht dauern.«
Theodor Fontane (Effi Briest)
Das stimmt, solche Menschen gibt es", antwortete Herr Dimmesdale. "Doch ohne an naheliegendere Gründe zu denken, wäre es doch möglich, daß sie Schweigen bewahren aus der Veranlagerung ihres Wesens. Oder daß sie - dürfen wir es nicht annehmen?-, schuldig wie sie vielleicht sind, trotzdem am Eifer zu Ehre Gottes und zum Wohle der Menschen festhalten und deshalb zurückschrecken, sich schwarz und dreckig vor den Augen der Menschen zu zeigen, weil sie danach nichts Gutes bewirken, nichts Schlechtes aus der Vergangenheit durch besseren Dienst auslöschen können. So wandeln sie zur eigenen unaussprechlichen Qual unter ihren Mitgeschöpfen und sehen dabei rein aus wie frisch gefallener Schnee, auch wenn ihre Herzen durch Unrecht befleckt und besudelt sind, von dem sie sich selbst nicht befreien können." "Diese Menschen betrügen sich selbst", sagte Roger Chillingworth mit etwas größerem Nachdruck als gewöhnlich und machte eine kleine Geste mit dem Zeigefinger. "sie fürchten, die Schande auf sich zu nehmen, die ihnen von Rechts wegen zusteht. Ihre Liebe zu den Menschen, ihr Eifer für den Gottesdienst - diese heiligen Triebe mögen oder mögen nicht in ihren Herzen gemeinsam mit den bösen Insassen existieren, denen eigene Schuld die Tür entriegelt hat, so daß sie ihre Höllenbrut fortpflanzen müssen. Doch wenn sie Gott verehren wollen, dann sollen sie ihre unreinen Hände nicht gen Himmel heben! Wenn sie ihren Mitmenschen dienen wollen, dann sollen sie es, indem sie Kraft und Wirklichkeit des Gewissens zeigen und sich zur reuevollen Selbsterniedrigung zwingen! Möchten Sie, daß ich denke, o mein weiser, frommer Freund, ein falscher Schein könne mehr tun, könne besseres tun zur Ehre Gottes und zum Wohle der Menschen, als Gottes eigene Wahrheit? Glauben Sie mir, diese Menschen betrügen sich selbst!
Nathaniel Hawthorne (The Scarlet Letter)
Ehre und Scham vor dem Schlafe! Das ist das Erste! Und Allen aus dem Wege gehn, die schlecht schlafen und Nachts wachen! Schamhaft ist noch der Dieb vor dem Schlafe: stets stiehlt er sich leise durch die Nacht. Schamlos aber ist der Wächter der Nacht, schamlos trägt er sein Horn. Keine geringe Kunst ist schlafen: es thut schon Noth, den ganzen Tag darauf hin zu wachen. Zehn Mal musst du des Tages dich selber überwinden: das macht eine gute Müdigkeit und ist Mohn der Seele. Zehn Mal musst du dich wieder dir selber versöhnen; denn Überwindung ist Bitterniss, und schlecht schläft der Unversöhnte. Zehn Wahrheiten musst du des Tages finden: sonst suchst du noch des Nachts nach Wahrheit, und deine Seele blieb hungrig. Zehn Mal musst du lachen am Tage und heiter sein: sonst stört dich der Magen in der Nacht, dieser Vater der Trübsal. Wenige wissen das: aber man muss alle Tugenden haben, um gut zu schlafen. Werde ich falsch Zeugniss reden? Werde ich ehebrechen? Werde ich mich gelüsten lassen meines Nächsten Magd? Das Alles vertrüge sich schlecht mit gutem Schlafe. Und selbst wenn man alle Tugenden hat, muss man sich noch auf Eins verstehn: selber die Tugenden zur rechten Zeit schlafen schicken. Dass sie sich nicht mit einander zanken, die artigen Weiblein! Und über dich, du Unglückseliger! Friede mit Gott und dem Nachbar: so will es der gute Schlaf. Und Friede auch noch mit des Nachbars Teufel! Sonst geht er bei dir des Nachts um. Ehre der Obrigkeit und Gehorsam, und auch der krummen Obrigkeit! So will es der gute Schlaf. Was kann ich dafür, dass die Macht gerne auf krummen Beinen Wandelt? Der soll mir immer der beste Hirt heissen, der sein Schaf auf die grünste Aue führt: so verträgt es sich mit dem gutem Schlafe. Viel Ehren will ich nicht, noch grosse Schätze: das entzündet die Milz. Aber schlecht schläft es sich ohne einen guten Namen und einen kleinen Schatz. Eine kleine Gesellschaft ist mir willkommener als eine böse: doch muss sie gehn und kommen zur rechten Zeit. So verträgt es sich mit gutem Schlafe. Sehr gefallen mir auch die Geistig-Armen: sie fördern den Schlaf. Selig sind die, sonderlich, wenn man ihnen immer Recht giebt. Also läuft der Tag dem Tugendsamen. Kommt nun die Nacht, so hüte ich mich wohl, den Schlaf zu rufen! Nicht will er gerufen sein, der Schlaf, der der Herr der Tugenden ist! Sondern ich denke, was ich des Tages gethan und gedacht. Wiederkäuend frage ich mich, geduldsam gleich einer Kuh: welches waren doch deine zehn Überwindungen? Und welches waren die zehn Versöhnungen und die zehn Wahrheiten und die zehn Gelächter, mit denen sich mein Herz gütlich that? Solcherlei erwägend und gewiegt von vierzig Gedanken, überfällt mich auf einmal der Schlaf, der Ungerufne, der Herr der Tugenden. Der Schlaf klopft mir auf meine Auge: da wird es schwer. Der Schlaf berührt mir den Mund: da bleibt er offen. Wahrlich, auf weichen Sohlen kommt er mir, der liebste der Diebe, und stiehlt mir meine Gedanken: dumm stehe ich da wie dieser Lehrstuhl. Aber nicht lange mehr stehe ich dann: da liege ich schon.
Friedrich Nietzsche (Thus Spoke Zarathustra)
»Wir schwören, Leben, Ehre und Gerechtigkeit furchtlos zu verteidigen
Thomas Schmid (Die wilden Hühner und das Leben)
O, über die weilden, unbiegsamen Männer, die nur immer ihr stieres Auge auf das Gespenst der Ehre heften!
Gotthold Ephraim Lessing (Minna von Barnhelm)
We have Dragon dictation software', one primary doctor said, 'which you have to be careful of, because, I just dictated: "patient's prostate is bothering him" and it turned out: "patient's prostitute is bothering him.
Robert M. Wachter (The Digital Doctor: Hope, Hype, and Harm at the Dawn of Medicine’s Computer Age)
61% of physicians felt their EHR improved the quality of care they delivered to patients, but only 1 in 3 said it had improved their job satisfaction, and 1 in 5 said they would go back to paper if they could. Tellingly, the more advanced the EHR; for example, systems that offered reminders, alerts, and messaging capability, the greater the unhappiness.
Robert M. Wachter (The Digital Doctor: Hope, Hype, and Harm at the Dawn of Medicine’s Computer Age)
Wenn aber eine Regierung nicht regieren kann, hört sie auf legitim zu sein und es hat, wer die Macht, auch das Recht, sie zu stürzen. Zwar ist es leider wahr, daß eine unfähige und verbrecherische Regierung lange Zeit das Wohl und die Ehre des Landes mit Füßen zu treten vermag, bevor die Männer sich finden, welche die von dieser Regierung selbst geschmiedeten entsetzlichen Waffen gegen sie schwingen und aus der sittlichen Empörung der Tüchtigen und dem Notstande der vielen die in solchem Fall legitime Revolution heraufbeschwören können und wollen. Aber wenn das Spiel mit dem Glücke der Völker ein lustiges sein mag und wohl lange Zeit hindurch ungestört gespielt werden kann, so ist es doch auch ein tückisches, das zu seiner Zeit die Spieler verschlingt; und niemand schilt dann die Axt, wenn sie dem Baum, der solche Früchte trägt, sich an die Wurzel legt. Für die römische Oligarchie war diese Zeit jetzt gekommen. Der Pontisch-Armenische Krieg und die Piratenangelegenheit wurden die nächsten Ursachen zum Umsturz der Sullanischen Verfassung und zur Einsetzung einer revolutionären Militärdiktatur.
Theodor Mommsen (A History of Rome (Abridged))
The metric that matters To work less and make more, all you need to do is move the needle on one metric: Effective Hourly Rate (EHR).
James Schramko (Work Less, Make More: The counter-intuitive approach to building a profitable business, and a life you actually love)
Here’s how to calculate your EHR: Take the amount of revenue you make in a month and subtract your costs. What you have left is your monthly profit. (If you have a job, then your wage is your profit.) Divide your profit by the number of hours you worked in the month to get it.
James Schramko (Work Less, Make More: The counter-intuitive approach to building a profitable business, and a life you actually love)
Increasing your EHR to this level is a learnable and repeatable process.

ACTION ITEMS TO INCREASE YOUR EHR Install time management software on your computer. Monitor how you’re spending your time. Adjust your workflow based on the report. Turn off all social media notifications (both emails and push notifications on your phone). Switch your phone to silent. Unsubscribe from any email newsletter that isn’t taking your business forward.

ACTION ITEMS TO INCREASE YOUR EHR Install time management software on your computer. Monitor how you’re spending your time. Adjust your workflow based on the report. Turn off all social media notifications (both emails and push notifications on your phone). Switch your phone to silent. Unsubscribe from any email newsletter that isn’t taking your business forward. Get support emails out of your inbox by using dedicated help desk software. Block ‘deep work’ time into your calendar (at whatever time suits you) so you have uninterrupted work time. Make portions of your time available to others using a scheduler tool. (The rest of the week is yours.) Purge unwanted things and people from your life. Set a 12-week goal and stick to it. Hint: Actioning items in this book will change your life. Commit 12 weeks to actioning the key elements at the end of each chapter. Prioritise sleep. Get eight hours a night for a week (even if it means not getting as much ‘work’ done) and see how it feels. Clean up your diet. Eat food that’s as close to the source as possible (i.e. not out of packets). Find a type of exercise or daily movement you enjoy, and carve out time to do it every day.
James Schramko (Work Less, Make More: The counter-intuitive approach to building a profitable business, and a life you actually love)
are you spending valuable time on something that’s not your core business? That’s when your EHR starts to plummet.
James Schramko (Work Less, Make More: The counter-intuitive approach to building a profitable business, and a life you actually love)
Creating solid systems around planning and goal setting is essential. The systems keep you honest and, most importantly, let you closely track the metrics that are important to you (which for this book is your EHR).
James Schramko (Work Less, Make More: The counter-intuitive approach to building a profitable business, and a life you actually love)
ACTION ITEMS TO INCREASE YOUR EHR Clear your brain. Purge everything from your mind, delete anything that won’t have an impact, score the highest impact ones, and transfer the top three. File the rest away somewhere safe. Then forget about them. Figure out your destination: identify your ideal future reality. Lay down the tracks: figure out the steps that will take you to your destination. Create stations along the way at 12-week intervals. These milestones will provide the momentum to keep going. Block out time in your schedule to execute the plan. Set an alert to check your progress weekly. Create a 12-weekly review point.
James Schramko (Work Less, Make More: The counter-intuitive approach to building a profitable business, and a life you actually love)
ACTION ITEMS TO INCREASE YOUR EHR Calculate your overall EHR (if you haven’t already done so). Calculate the EHR of each of your business activities/products/services. Identify your 4% activities/products/services. Identify the activities/products/services you need to delete. Identify activities you like doing, but could realistically be done by someone else. Identify the EHR you’ll use to filter all future opportunities and ideas. Apply that filter to all future opportunities and ideas.
James Schramko (Work Less, Make More: The counter-intuitive approach to building a profitable business, and a life you actually love)
If you can pay someone less than your current EHR to do something, you should. The higher your EHR, the more you’ll be able to pay other people to do these tasks in your business.
James Schramko (Work Less, Make More: The counter-intuitive approach to building a profitable business, and a life you actually love)
ACTION ITEMS TO INCREASE YOUR EHR Research your target market. What are they already spending money on? Can you package up and provide something better? If you’re a service-based business, would it help your clients to have you on retainer? They’ll know what their monthly spend will be, and you’ll know what your income and cash flow will be. Look at what you currently purchase on a recurring basis. Can you reverse engineer any of those models and make it work for you?
James Schramko (Work Less, Make More: The counter-intuitive approach to building a profitable business, and a life you actually love)
Doing high-impact tasks in your business. Moving your EHR in the right direction. Identifying and then removing or mitigating all the compromises you’re making in business and life.
James Schramko (Work Less, Make More: The counter-intuitive approach to building a profitable business, and a life you actually love)
A woman's world has always revolved around children and other women. At least as long as I've been around, and I'm almost 60." she smoothed the sheet draped across Ellie as she talked, tucking it in around the sides of her body like a cocoon. "Don't get me wrong," she continued. "We love our men, and the idea of a husband is a good thing. What woman wouldn't want that?" Ellie thought of her brave, independent Aunt Nessa, teaching until she was seventy and dying in ehr sleep on a train bound for New Mexico. She'd never wanted to marry, and she was the happiest woman Ellie had ever known. Mrs Drake put the tissue from the box on Ellie's nightstand and blew her nose. "Men need us more than we need them," she said, and then lowered her voice. "Including the doctors around here. They walk around acting like God, but you should see the panic when one of them has to buy a birthday present for his wife. They have no idea what women want." She washed her hands in the small sink in the corner. "That's why we need our women friends. We're with each other from the beginning to the very end, and everything in between. We understand each other. It's instinctual.

Using this technique, Baum et al constructed a forest that contained 1,000 decision trees and looked at 84 co-variates that may have been influencing patients' response or lack of response to the intensive lifestyle modifications program. These variables included a family history of diabetes, muscle cramps in legs and feet, a history of emphysema, kidney disease, amputation, dry skin, loud snoring, marital status, social functioning, hemoglobin A1c, self-reported health, and numerous other characteristics that researchers rarely if ever consider when doing a subgroup analysis. The random forest analysis also allowed the investigators to look at how numerous variables *interact* in multiple combinations to impact clinical outcomes. The Look AHEAD subgroup analyses looked at only 3 possible variables and only one at a time. In the final analysis, Baum et al. discovered that intensive lifestyle modification averted cardiovascular events for two subgroups, patients with HbA1c 6.8% or higher (poorly managed diabetes) and patients with well-controlled diabetes (Hba1c < 6.8%) and good self-reported health. That finding applied to 85% of the entire patient population studied. On the other hand, the remaining 15% who had controlled diabetes but poor self-reported general health responded negatively to the lifestyle modification regimen. The negative and positive responders cancelled each other out in the initial statistical analysis, falsely concluding that lifestyle modification was useless. The Baum et al. re-analysis lends further support to the belief that a one-size-fits-all approach to medicine is inadequate to address all the individualistic responses that patients have to treatment.

Ihtiyar bilge", bircok kulturde hem erkek (Zerdust, Melin, Odin) hem de kadin (Matrix filmindeki "Oracle" karakteri) olarak karsimiza cikan bir arketip. Ihtiyarligin bilgelikle ozdeslestirilmesi nicin neredeyse evrensel? Belki de yaslilarini "artik ne avlaniyor, ne do[uruyorlar, sadece gruba yuk oluyorlar" diye terk edenlerin degil de onlari besleyip yuceltenlerin torunlari oldugumuz icindir. Yazinin olmadigi bir cagdaki yasli bir insanin birikimi, ehr an yok oalbilecek bir hazineden farksiz. Tek bir iltihap yuzunden duznelerce goc, yuzlerce mevsim degisikligi ve binlerce av sonucu kazanilmis dersler yitip gidebilir. Bu hazineye hak ettigi degeri verenler, komsularina karsi buyuk bir avantaj elde etmis olmalilar.
Immanuel Tolstoyevski (Safsatalar Ansiklopedisi: Akıl Yürüt(eme)menin Kısa Tarihi)
Since the 19th century, medicine has focused on specific disease states by linking collections of signs and symptoms to single organs.... Systems biology and its offspring, sometimes called Network Medicine, takes a more wholistic approach, looking at all the diverse genetic, metabolic, and environmental factors that contribute to clinical disease. Equally important, it looks at the preclinical manifestations of pathology. The current focus of medicine is much like the focus that an auto mechanic takes to repair a car. The diagnostic process isolates a broken part and repairs or replaces it.... Although this strategy has saved countless lives and reduced pain and suffering, it nevertheless treats the disease and not the patient, with all their unique habits, lifestyle mistakes, environmental exposures, psychosocial interactions, and genetic predispositions.
Paul Cerrato (Reinventing Clinical Decision Support: Data Analytics, Artificial Intelligence, and Diagnostic Reasoning (HIMSS Book Series))
The job that an EHR is designed to do is a systemic job, not a local one. It is designed to enable different providers in different locations to see what kinds of care other doctors and institutions have given or are rendering to a patient. It
Clayton M. Christensen (The Innovator's Prescription: A Disruptive Solution for Health Care)
Für Menschen, die das Glück haben, ein selbstbestimmtes Leben zu führen, ist es oft kaum vorstellbar, dass Männer und Frauen zu einer Ehe gezwungen werden können. So geht es auch vielen, die mit zwangsverheirateten Personen aus beruflichen Gründen zu tun haben. Ein Richter fuhr mal eine Mandantin von mir sehr schroff an und sagte sinngemäß: »Sie wollen mir doch nicht erzählen, dass Sie in Deutschland aufgewachsen sind, ein Gymnasium besucht haben und keine Möglichkeit sahen, sich gegen die Verheiratung zur Wehr zu setzen.« Ich glaube ihm, dass das Phänomen Zwangsheirat außerhalb seiner Vorstellungskraft liegt. Aber ich verstehe nicht, dass er und mit ihm so viele andere Menschen meinen, es würde reichen, in einem demokratischen Land zu leben, um ein selbstbestimmtes Leben zu führen. Sie begreifen meiner Ansicht nach nicht die Macht der Parallelgesellschaft. Sie begreifen nicht, dass in Deutschland tatsächlich Menschen leben, die ihre eigenen Kinder gegen deren Willen verheiraten und sogar im Namen der Ehre töten oder töten lassen.

Die Ehre der Familie rein zu halten und zu schützen, das sei das oberste Gebot, wenn es um »unsere Frauen« geht, sagen viele türkische und kurdische Männer. Das Wörtchen »unsere« muss wörtlich genommen werden: Die Frauen sind Gemeinbesitz.
Seyran Ateş (Der Multikulti-Irrtum)
The outcome of their battle was a foregone conclusion, and Loretta knew it. His friends encouraged him, whooping with ribald laughter each time her ruffles flashed. She snatched the dirty peace flag from the wooden shaft and threw it to the earth, grinding it beneath the heel of her shoe. After fending off several more passes, exhaustion claimed its victory, and Loretta realized the folly in fighting. She stood motionless, breasts heaving, her eyes staring fixedly at nothing, head lifted. The warrior circled her, guiding his stallion’s flashing hooves so close to her feet that her toes tingled. When she didn’t move, he reined the horse to a halt and studied her for several seconds before he leaned forward to finger the bodice of her dress. Her breath snagged when he slid a palm over her bosom to the indentation of her waist. “Ai-ee,” he whispered. “You learn quick.” Raising tear-filled eyes to his, she again spat in his face. This time he felt the spray and wiped his cheek, his lips quivering with something that looked suspiciously like suppressed laughter, friendly laughter this time. “Maybe not so quick. But I am a good teacher. You will learn not to fight me, Yellow Hair. It is a promise I make for you.” In that moment, what she felt for him went beyond hate, a black, churning ugliness that made her want to seize the lance he brandished and skewer him with it. I claim her. He planned to take her, then? Her gaze traveled from his woven wool belt of army blue to the muscular tracks that rippled in his belly. The hilt of his knife protruded from a leather scabbard on his hip. How many soldiers had he killed? One, a hundred, perhaps a thousand? Her hair hung from his belt, trailing in a spray of gold down the dark leather on his pants. She felt certain she had never seen him before. Yet he had her hair. The Indian down by the river must have given it to him, and he had come from God only knew where to get her. With a start, she noticed the warrior had stretched out a hand to her. A wide leather band encircled his wrist to protect him from his bowstring. Staring at his dark palm and strong fingers, she shook her head in denial. “Hi, tai,” he said in a low voice. Guiding his stallion closer, he bent to touch her chin. Her eyelid quivered when he brushed at a tear on her cheek. “Ka taikay, ka taikay, Tohobt Nabituh,” he whispered. The words made no sense. Puzzled, she met his gaze. “Tosa ehr-mahr.” Raising his hand, he showed her the glistening wetness on his fingertips. “Silver rain, tosa ehr-mahr.” He compared her tears to silver rain? She searched his eyes for some trace of humanity and found none. After a moment he straightened, raising his lance in what looked like a salute. “Suvate!” he yelled, his glittering eyes sweeping the line of encircling riders. A low rumble of answering voices replied, “Suvate!

A low rumble of answering voices replied, “Suvate!” He seemed satisfied with the response and, with a mighty thrust, drove the lance into the earth. Again, he thrust out his hand. “Take it, Yellow Hair, in friendship.” She was afraid he might drag her onto his mount if she touched him, but his eyes compelled her. Besides, if he was set on it, he’d have his way, with or without her cooperation. She lifted a quivering arm, expecting the worst, and placed her fingers across his palm. His callused hand tightened on hers, the warmth of his grip shooting to her shoulder. “We will meet again. I will come to you like the wind, from nowhere. Remember the face of this Comanche. I am your destiny.” With that, he released her and rode his horse in a circle about the yard, one arm raised high, his head thrown back to emit a shrill cry that sent shivers up her spine. Moments later a cloud of dust rose in the yard, and four hundred hooves beat a deafening staccato of retreat.

Zusammenhalt ist unsere Stärke, Ehre unser Dogma und Treue unsere Pflicht!
Andreas J. Voigt (Der Nationale Doppelroman)
The program is grounded in 10 design principles, the aim of which is to create innovative solutions to intractable health problems....In other words, do not be content with the status quo. The remaining principles include several obvious but often overlooked themes in routine patient care: value each person, be human, be human-centered, codesign, facilitate connections, treat with dignity, and provide a stage from which the hardest, most important stories may be told.
Paul Cerrato (Realizing the Promise of Precision Medicine: The Role of Patient Data, Mobile Technology, and Consumer Engagement)
In nature, ecosystems consist of fauna and flora, climatic characteristics, soil conditions, geologic features, and a host of other interacting influences. Similarly, the precision medicine ecosystem is made of many interacting components, including patients, clinicians, researchers, laboratory services, CDS software, genomic databases, smartphones, servers, claims data, mobile apps, biobanks to store clinical specimens, and EHRs. EHRs need to serve as gateways to this ecosystem. And for the EHR to become an effective conduit, it needs a way to organize these diverse sources in a way that lets clinicians and patients make more effective diagnostic and treatment decisions.

But the need for support of health IT was clear. Hospitals and doctors were being required to implement electronic health records (EHRs) and were having serious problems.

To work less and make more, all you need to do is move the needle on one metric: Effective Hourly Rate (EHR). Here’s how to calculate your EHR: Take the amount of revenue you make in a month and subtract your costs. What you have left is your monthly profit. (If you have a job, then your wage is your profit.) Divide your profit by the number of hours you worked in the month to get it. The number you have now is your EHR. Let’s say you make $20,000 a month in revenue, and your fixed and variable costs come to $15,000. That means your profit will be $5,000. If you work 250 hours a month to achieve that profit then: $5,000/250 = EHR $20/hour

Institutions that adopt systems and use them in certified ways in 2011 and 2012 could getting about $50,000 per doctor in total payments by being meaningful users of certified EHR technology over the period from 2011 to 2016.

You can keep the Office of Personnel Management records, I don't need Electronic Health Records, give me the metadata, big data analytics and a custom tailored algorithm and a budget and during election time, I can cut to the psychological core of any population, period!

activity, diet, smoking and alcohol consumption are highly related to epidemic of obesity [2]. Some of this information, such as alcohol and tobacco use, is regularly documented by clinicians. Other information, such as dietary behaviors and physical activity, isn’t typically captured, but may be tracked by new technology (such as wearable computers commonly referred to as “wearables”) and integrated into electronic health records (EHRs).

Noch eins zu Ihrem Trost, nämlich, daß nie, nie etwas von unserer Seite geschehen wird, was nicht mit der strengsten Ehre verträglich ist und was mit dem Ganzen gehet. Denken Sie nicht an einzelne Erbärmlichkeit. Der König steht mitten im Unglück ehrwürdig und charaktergroß da. Das wird auch Sie trösten, das weiß ich, so wie alle, die mir angehören, George, Karl und Onkel Ernst. Ich lege mich der guten Großmama zu Füßen und bin auf ewig ihre treu gehorsamste, Sie innig liebende Tochter, und Gottlob, daß ich es sagen darf, da mich Ihre Gnade berechtigt, Ihre Freundin Luise von Preussen (31) an den Vater

Zacharias bemerkte erstaunt, wie eine Veränderung mit Iani vor sich ging. Seine Haltung versteifte sich, fast schien ein unsichtbarer und nicht fühlbarer Wind seine Kleidung aufzubauschen, dann legte er los: »Idioten! Es sind unsere Prophezeiungen, unser Orakel, unser Schicksal! Wir haben ihm seit Tausenden von Jahren gedient! Warum unterstellt ihr uns, dass wir verhindern wollen, dass sich die Prophezeiungen erfüllen? Es ist uns eine Ehre, einem Auserwählten zu helfen! Ihr Menschen seid es, die das Schicksal ablehnen, es durchkreuzen und übers Ohr hauen wollen! Ihr seid diejenigen, die es nicht verstehen und denken, dass es euren Wünschen und Launen gehorchen muss!«
Nicole Gozdek (Prophezeiungen für Jedermann)
Wir sehen den Unglücklichen, der doch in eben der Stunde, wo er die Tat beging, so wie in der, wo er dafür büßet, Mensch war wie wir, für ein Geschöpf fremder Gattung an, dessen Blut anders umläuft als das unsrige, dessen Wille andern Regeln gehorcht als der unsrige; seine Schicksale rühren uns wenig, denn Rührung gründet sich ja nur auf ein dunkles Bewusstsein ähnlicher Gefahr, und wir sind weit entfernt, eine solche Ähnlichkeit auch nur zu träumen. Die Belehrung geht mit der Beziehung verloren, und die Geschichte, anstatt eine Schule der Bildung zu sein, muss sich mit einem armseligen Verdienste um unsre Neugier begnügen.
