Bits Of Wisdom Which Deserve Quotation

Hi Everyone!

This is an idea that came to me as a result of the population at large believeing apparently, that you could not possiably have anything to say which could warrant a quotation unless you are already famous for some other accomplishment. So, if any of you out there have a real beauty, an unusual perspective which does warrant some public exposure, a little twist of wisdom, then, your time has arrived. Try to keep these bits of wisdom bits, right the novel later. Give us those bits of wisdom that we might quote you later. Funny ones are most acceptable and might serve to lighten the place up.

PS: Do not quote famous people and their quotations, but, if you have a way of stateing that same point in a different way------we are in business.

(it) is what you say it is.. Hence it could be a car, yet it is only a car if you say (its) a car, therefore you make it a car, in more ways than one.

Its one of the thing's that applies to all thing's of thought through the mean's of communication.

So... For (the car) is what it is, for that is what i say it is, therefore making (the car )what it is, and thats what i say it is, and therefore I made (the car) what it is.

So my hand is only a hand because I say it is a hand, or that of another say's it is a hand, therefore it is a hand... You can call things what ever you want, but they are only what you say they are, and in doing so you have made them what they are to you, or another... throught the mean's of thought and communication.

The reason why the car is what it is, is stated within the text.

Its mainly a tool to better understand people's perception of object's and see them how they see them, as if you were them, yet first one must understand the basic concept of what make's thing's what they are, and why they are what they are...

Yet this is not usable without my other's. Hence an Absolute concept, by its self only applie's to one field, and this one applie's to the field of thought and communication of perception of object's, which applies to all things within that..

But if you say you do not understand somthing..please say in detail what you dont understand, please do not give me a vauge answer -.-'

NoOne,

Ok, you are basically saying that we create our own reality--which I do not really have difficulty with.The fact that others see the same or a similar reality is due to having similar sensory equipment and powers of understanding-------that is my take on it at any rate.

Sorry for the displeasing response, must be something with this computer all I saw of your postings was one-----look down?

Philosophy is ineffable.

Nothing is absolute.

Wisdom does not come through books.

Doobah,

True about philosophy, philosophies content makes it ineffable.

Nothing is absolute. Agreed!

Wisdom does not come through books.

More and more I think wisdom comes from a knowledge of people, and how one is to use knowledge in relation to them.

Thanks for your input Doobah, but it does not look like this idea is going to fly, perhaps that is why I have never seen such an approach before.
