One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star. -Friedrich Nietzche
Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth - more than ruin - more even than death. Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. Thought looks into the pit of hell and is not afraid. Thought is great and swift and free, the light of the world, and the chief glory of man. -Bertrand Russell
Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs, Being purged, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes, Being vexed, a sea nourished with lovers' tears. What is it else? A madness most discreet, A choking gall and a preserving sweet. --William Shakespeare
The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions. - Lord Alfred Tennyson
Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices, but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence and fulfills the duty to express the results of his thought in clear form. --Albert Einstein
The moment you have in your heart this extraordinary thing called love and feel the depth, the delight, the ecstasy of it, you will discover that for you the world is transformed.
--Jiddu Krishnamurti
--Jiddu Krishnamurti
Like a flash of lightning and in an instant the truth was revealed. I drew with a stick on the sand the diagrams of my motor. A thousand secrets of nature which I might have stumbled upon accidentally I would have given for that one which I had wrestled from her against all odds and at the peril of my existence.--Nikolai Tesla
The joy of life consists in the exercise of one’s energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die. The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal.--Aleister Crowley
Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work. --Thomas Alva Edison
My Grimoire
Jun 24
|16:28 PM
I just bought the HP TC4400, a wonderful tablet PC which has quickly become my favorite tool. It's light, portable, and easy to use, fast despite the fact that it currently runs Vista, and generally really nice.
I decided that it would become my grimoire, an absolutely magickal tool for putting forth the thoughts in my mind into a format
which I may store. I added a piece of software called One Note, which is an excellent notebook program which works with the ink capabilities of the tablet. It nicely keeps things in sections and categories, arranged by pages, so it is perfect for organizing my grimoire.The speech capabilities is where I am going to have some real fun with this though. Windows has a decent little speech recognition software, which I set up and trained to my voice. So, now, with some bugginess due to a need to train further, I can speak to my grimoire, and it writes what I say. A bit of editing and touch up afterward, and I should be able to very easily record all of my thoughts. It'll be better than having my own personal scribe.
