    On Sunday, Southern Sudan will begin a week-long referendum on whether to break off from Sudan and form a new independent state. The vote is being held under the 2005 peace agreement that ended a nearly four-decade civil war between the North and South that killed some 2.5 million Sudanese.

    I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me. ~ Isaac Newton (born 4 January 1643)

    Men learn little from others’ experience. But in the life of one man, never the same time returns. ~ T. S. Eliot, in Murder in the Cathedral (died 4 January 1965)

    The main Business of natural Philosophy is to argue from Phenomena without feigning Hypotheses, and to deduce Causes from Effects, till we come to the very first Cause, which certainly is not mechanical. ~ Isaac Newton (born 4 January 1643)

    It’s the end of the world as we know it (and I feel fine).
    ~ R.E.M. ~ (birthday of Michael Stipe, lead singer and major song writer in the band — which divides the credit on all its songs equally)

    That’s me in the corner
    That’s me in the spotlight
    Losing my religion
    Trying to keep up with you
    And I don’t know if I can do it
    Oh no I’ve said too much
    I haven’t said enough.
    ~ R.E.M. ~

    The folly of Interpreters has been, to foretell times and things by this Prophecy, as if God designed to make them Prophets. By this rashness they have not only exposed themselves, but brought the Prophecy also into contempt.
    The design of God was much otherwise. He gave this and the Prophecies of the Old Testament, not to gratify mens curiosities by enabling them to foreknow things, but that after they were fulfilled they might be interpreted by the event, and his own Providence, not the Interpreters, be then manifested thereby to the world. For the event of things predicted many ages before will then be a convincing argument that the world is governed by Providence.
    ~ Isaac Newton

    Every man’s memory is his private literature.
    – Aldous Huxley

    “There is no force so powerful as an idea whose time has come.”
    – Everett Dirksen

    Nothing is softer or more flexible than water, yet nothing can resist it.
    – Lao Tzu

    “I do not agree with what you have to say, but I’ll defend to the death your right to say it.”
    – Voltaire

    Determination and hope are key factors for a brighter future.

    As I see it, compassion is the essence of a spiritual life.
    -Dalai Lama

    Seek freedom and become captive of your desires. Seek discipline and find your liberty. ~Frank Herbert, Dune Chronicles

    Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the and the blind can see.
    ~ Mark Twain

    Fall down seven times, stand up eight.
    ♥ Japanese Proverb

    ☮Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me.
    – Jill Jackson and Sy Miller

    Ever since happiness heard your name,
    it has been running through the streets trying to find you.
    ~ Hafiz

    Our possibilities, opportunities and horizons expand and increase as our fears diminish and decrease. Fear itself has no physical reality of it’s own. The fact that it is a mental construct is the key to its own undoing. We are the only force that gives it any meaning or power over us through our belief in it and thus we can withdraw its hold over us by replacing it with a new meaning.
    ~ Hal Tipper

    Friends are kisses blown to us by angels.

    Ring out a slowly dying cause,
    And ancient forms of party strife;
    Ring in the nobler modes of life,
    With sweeter manners, purer laws.
    ~ Alfred, Lord Tennyson ~

    No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend’s or of thine own were. Any man’s death diminishes me because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee… ~ John Donne

    Not to know what happened before you were born is to be a child forever. For what is the time of a man, except it be interwoven with that memory of ancient things of a superior age? ~ Cicero (born 3 January 106 BC)

    Each comprehended only that part of the mind of Ilúvatar from which he came, and in the understanding of their brethren they grew but slowly. Yet ever as they listened they came to deeper understanding, and increased in unison and harmony. ~ J. R. R. Tolkien in The Silmarillion (Tolkien born 3 January 1892)

    The rule of no realm is mine, neither of Gondor nor any other, great or small. But all worthy things that are in peril as the world now stands, those are my care. And for my part, I shall not wholly fail of my task, though Gondor should perish, if anything passes through this night that can still grow fair or bear fruit and flower again in days to come. ~ “Gandalf” inThe Lord of the Rings : The Return of the King by J. R. R. Tolkien

    This is an ancient hallow, and ere the kings failed or the Tree withered in the court, a fruit must have been set here. For it is said that, though the fruit of the Tree comes seldom to ripeness, yet the life within may then lie sleeping through many long years, and none can foretell the time in which it will awake. ~ Gandalf in The Return of the King by J. R. R. Tolkien

    Of the theme that I have declared to you, I will now that ye make in harmony together a Great Music. And since I have kindled you with the Flame Imperishable, ye shall show forth your powers in adorning this theme, each with his own thoughts and devices, if he will. But I will sit and hearken, and be glad that through you great beauty has been wakened into song. ~ J. R. R. Tolkien in The Silmarillion

    He who looks on a true friend looks, as it were, upon a kind of image of himself: wherefore friends, though absent, are still present; though in poverty, they are rich; though weak, yet in the enjoyment of health; and, what is still more difficult to assert, though dead, they are alive.
    ~ Cicero ~

    http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Wikiquote:Quote_of_the_day/January#3

    Everyone is a genius at least once a year. The real geniuses simply have their bright ideas closer together.
    – Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

    Even he, to whom most things that most people would think were pretty smart were pretty dumb, thought it was pretty smart.
    – Douglas Adams

    Outside of a dog, a book is man’s best friend. Inside of a dog it’s too dark to read.
    – Groucho Marx

    Wherever they burn books they will also, in the end, burn human beings.
    – Heinrich Heine

    via apod.nasa.gov

    Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profundity. Kindness in giving creates love.
    ~ Lao Tzu ♥

    Better to remain silent & be thought a fool that to speak & remove all doubt.
    – English proverbs

    Fill your paper with the breathings of your heart.
    – Wordsworth

    I think of life as a good book. The further you get into it, the more it begins to make sense.
    ~ Harold Kushner

    Everything in your life is there as a vehicle for your transformation. Use it!
    -Ram Dass

    “Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.

    Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.”
    ~ Albert Einstein

    We are all in this together. ~ English proverb

    via en.wikiquote.org

    How often people speak of art and science as though they were two entirely different things, with no interconnection…That is all wrong. The true artist is quite rational as well as imaginative and knows what he is doing; if he does not, his art suffers. The true scientist is quite imaginative as well as rational, and sometimes leaps to solutions where reason can follow only slowly; if he does not, his science suffers. ~ Isaac Asimov (born 2 January 1920)

    Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent. ~ Isaac Asimov

    When people grow wise in one direction, they are sure to make it easier for themselves to grow wise in other directions as well. On the other hand, when they split up knowledge, concentrate on their own field, and scorn and ignore other fields, they grow less wise — even in their own field. ~ Isaac Asimov

    It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be … ~ Isaac Asimov

    I believe in evidence. I believe in observation, measurement, and reasoning, confirmed by independent observers. I’ll believe anything, no matter how wild and ridiculous, if there is evidence for it. The wilder and more ridiculous something is, however, the firmer and more solid the evidence will have to be. ~ Isaac Asimov

    Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not.
    ~ Isaac Asimov ~

    http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Wikiquote:Quote_of_the_day/January#2

    “We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.”
    – Kurt Vonnegut

    “The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.”
    – Pablo Picasso

    “All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree… Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.

    The release of atom power has changed everything except our way of thinking… The solution to this problem lies in the heart of mankind. If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker.”
    – Albert Einstein

    “Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality.

    But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

    Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were, but without it we go nowhere.”
    – Carl Sagan

    “Dreams are the touchstones of our characters.

    Read not the Times. Read the Eternities.”
    – Henry David Thoreau

    “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be. This is the interrelated structure of reality.”
    – Martin Luther King, Jr.

    What is to be done, O Moslems? For I do not recognise myself.

    I am neither Christian, nor Jew, nor Gabr, nor Moslem.

    I am not of the East, nor of the West, nor of the land, nor of the sea;

    I am not of Nature’s mint, nor of the circling heaven.

    I am not of earth, nor of water, nor of air, nor of fire;

    I am not of the empyrean, nor of the dust, nor of existence, nor of entity.

    I am not of India , nor of China , nor of Bulgaria , nor of Saqsin.

    I am not of the kingdom of ’Iraqian, nor of the country of Khorasan

    I am not of this world, nor of the next, nor of Paradise , nor of Hell.

    I am not of Adam, nor of Eve, nor of Eden and Rizwan.

    My place is the Placeless; my trace is the Traceless;

    ’Tis neither body nor soul, for I belong to the soul of the Beloved.

    The Soul of the Beloved

    What is to be done, O Moslems? For I do not recognise myself.
    I am neither Christian, nor Jew, nor Gabr, nor Moslem.

    I am not of the East, nor of the West, nor of the land, nor of the sea;

    I am not of earth, nor of water, nor of air, nor of fire;

    I am not of this world, nor of the next, nor of Paradise , nor of Hell.
    I am not of Adam, nor of Eve, nor of Eden and Rizwan.

    My place is the Placeless; my trace is the Traceless;
    ’Tis neither body nor soul, for I belong to the soul of the Beloved.

    I have put duality away; I have seen that the two worlds are one;
    One I seek, One I know, One I see, One I call.

    He is the first, He is the last, He is the outward, He is the inward;
    I am intoxicated with Love’s cup, the two worlds have passed out of my ken;

    If once in my life I spent a moment without thee,
    From that time and from that hour I repent of my life.

    If once in this world I win a moment with thee,
    I will trample on both worlds; I will dance in triumph forever.

    All we do our whole lives is go from one little piece of Holy Ground to the next.
    ~ J. D. Salinger ~

    Ring out false pride in place and blood,
    The civic slander and the spite;
    Ring in the love of truth and right,
    Ring in the common love of good.
    ~ Alfred, Lord Tennyson ~

    Only connect! That was the whole of her sermon. Only connect the prose and the passion, and both will be exalted, and human love will be seen at its height. Live in fragments no longer. Only connect, and the beast and the monk, robbed of the isolation that is life to either, will die. ~ E. M. Forster (date of birth)

    I do not believe in Belief. But this is an Age of Faith, and there are so many militant creeds that, in self defence, one has to formulate a creed of one’s own. Tolerance, good temper and sympathy are no longer enough in a world where ignorance rules, and Science, which ought to have ruled, plays the pimp. Tolerance, good temper and sympathy — they are what matter really, and if the human race is not to collapse they must come to the front before long. ~ E. M. Forster

    What is wonderful about great literature is that it transforms the man who reads it towards the condition of the man who wrote, and brings to birth in us also the creative impulse. ~ E. M. Forster

    Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. Everything is united by it alone. Love is God, and to die means that I, a particle of love, shall return to the general and eternal source.”

    At each stage I reach a balance, a conclusion. At the next sitting, if I find that there is a weakness in the whole, I make my way back into the picture by means of the weakness — I re-enter through the breach — and I reconceive the whole. Thus everything becomes fluid again.
    ~ Henri Matisse ~

    I cannot believe in a God who wants to be praised all the time. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche

    Wave after wave, each mightier than the last,
    Till last, a ninth one, gathering half the deep
    And full of voices, slowly rose and plunged
    Roaring, and all the wave was in a flame:
    And down the wave and in the flame was borne

    Compassion creates a positive, friendly atmosphere. With such an attitude, you can create the possibility of receiving affection or a positive response from someone else. If the other person doesn’t respond to you in a positive way, your own feeling of openness gives you the flexibility and freedom to change your approach as needed and still allows for the possibility of having a meaningful conversation with them.

    If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.

    Awareness of impermanence and appreciation of our human potential will give us a sense of urgency that we must use every precious moment.

    I sometimes hold it half a sin
    To put in words the grief I feel;
    For words, like Nature, half reveal
    And half conceal the Soul within.
    ~ Alfred, Lord Tennyson ~

    If you can keep your head when all about you
    Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
    If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
    But make allowance for their doubting too…
    If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
    Or walk with Kings — nor lose the common touch,
    If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
    If all men count with you, but none too much;
    If you can fill the unforgiving minute
    With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
    Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
    And — which is more — you’ll be a Man, my son!

    The greatest book is not the one whose message engraves itself on the brain, as a telegraphic message engraves itself on the ticker-tape, but the one whose vital impact opens up other viewpoints, and from writer to reader spreads the fire that is fed by the various essences, until it becomes a vast conflagration leaping from forest to forest. ~ Romain Rolland(died 30 December 1944)

    I believe our future depends powerfully on how well we understand this Cosmos in which we float like a mote of dust in the morning sky.

    The surface of the earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean. … Recently, we’ve managed to wade a little way out, maybe ankle-deep, and the water seems inviting.

    For the first time, we have the power to decide the fate of our planet and ourselves. This is a time of great danger, but our species is young, and curious, and brave. It shows much promise.

    We are made of starstuff. We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.

    The Cosmos is all that is or ever was or ever will be. Our feeblest contemplations of the Cosmos stir us — there is a tingling in the spine, a catch in the voice, a faint sensation of a distant memory, as if we were falling from a great height. We know we are approaching the greatest of mysteries.

    A religion old or new, that stressed the magnificence of the universe as revealed by modern science, might be able to draw forth reserves of reverence and awe hardly tapped by the conventional faiths. Sooner or later, such a religion will emerge.

    Human history can be viewed as a slowly dawning awareness that we are members of a larger group.

    The Cosmos is all that is or ever was or ever will be. Our feeblest contemplations of the Cosmos stir us ââ,¬” there is a tingling in the spine, a catch in the voice, a faint sensation of a distant memory, as if we were falling from a great height. We know we are approaching the greatest of mysteries.

    The size and age of the Cosmos are beyond ordinary human understanding. Lost somewhere between immensity and eternity is our tiny planetary home. In a cosmic perspective, most human concerns seem insignificant, even petty. And yet our species is young and curious and brave and shows much promise. In the last few millennia we have made the most astonishing and unexpected discoveries about the Cosmos and our place within it, explorations that are exhilarating to consider. They remind us that humans have evolved to wonder, that understanding is a joy, that knowledge is prerequisite to survival. I believe our future depends powerfully on how well we understand this Cosmos in which we float like a mote of dust in the morning sky.

    Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere.

    For the first time, we have the power to decide the fate of our planet and ourselves. This is a time of great danger, but our species is young, and curious, and brave. It shows much promise.

    We wish to pursue the truth no matter where it leads. But to find the truth, we need imagination and skepticism both. We will not be afraid to speculate, but we will be careful to distinguish speculation from fact. The cosmos is full beyond measure of elegant truths; of exquisite interrelationships; of the awesome machinery of nature.
    The truth may be puzzling. It may take some work to grapple with. It may be counterintuitive. It may contradict deeply held prejudices. It may not be consonant with what we desperately want to be true. But our preferences do not determine what’s true.

    We on Earth have just awakened to the great oceans of space and time from which we have emerged. We are the legacy of 15 billion years of cosmic evolution. We have a choice: We can enhance life and come to know the universe that made us, or we can squander our 15 billion-year heritage in meaningless self-destruction. What happens in the first second of the next cosmic year depends on what we do, here and now, with our intelligence and our knowledge of the cosmos.

    From this distant vantage point, the Earth might not seem of particular interest. But for us, it’s different. Consider again that dot. That’s here, that’s home, that’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar,” every “supreme leader,” every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there ââ,¬” on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.

    Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.

    The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.

    It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we’ve ever known.”

    A Green Flash from the Sun
    Credit & Copyright:
    Juan José Manzano
    (Grupo de Observadores
    Astronómicos de Tenerife
    )

    Explanation:
    Many think it is just a myth.
    Others think it is true but its cause isn’t known.
    Adventurers pride themselves on having seen it.
    It’s a green flash from the
    Sun.
    The truth is the
    green flash
    does exist and its cause is well understood.
    Just as the setting
    Sun disappears completely from view,
    a last glimmer appears startlingly
    green.
    The effect is typically visible only from locations with a low,
    distant horizon, and lasts just a few seconds.
    A green flash is also visible for a rising
    Sun, but takes better timing to spot.
    A dramatic
    green flash, as well as an even more rare
    blue flash, was caught in the
    above photograph recently
    observed
    during a sunset visible from
    Teide Observatory at
    Tenerife,
    Cannary Islands,
    Spain.
    The Sun itself does not turn
    partly
    green or blue —
    the effect is caused by layers of the
    Earth’s atmosphere acting like a prism.
