Our road not marked on maps.
Fugitives of the centuries,
our origin is the breathing
and our destination is exhalation,
A thousand suns are flowing in our blood,
and the vision of infinity is always chasing us.
The form cannot tame us,
Our days are a fire and our nights a sea.
We need a sense of the unity of life and of humans for the sake of human welfare and for the survival of the planet. We need a sense of unity with the cosmos so that we can connect with Reality. But we also need a sense of individuality, for the sake of our own dignity and independence and of the loving care for others. We need it to appreciate each natural form, each animal and plant, each human person in their uniqueness.”

lexis karpouzos
All beings and things, visible and invisible are interrelated and inseparable, are the same and different forms of open wholeness. The possibility of survival, passing through a generous and friendly relationship with the other man, with the other beings, the planet as a whole, the stars and the whole universe.”
Alexis Karpouzos
The world does not consist of subjects and objects, the “subject” and the “object” are metaphysical abstractions of the single and indivisible Wholeness. Man’s finite knowledge separates the Whole into parts and studies fragmentarily the beings. The Wholeness is manifested in multiple forms and each form encapsulates the Wholeness”

I have many fathers and I have many mothers
And I have many sisters and I have many brothers
My brothers are black and my mothers are yellow
And my fathers are red and my sisters are white.
And I am over fifty thousand years old
And my name is human
And I live from light and I live from love
And I live from the air and I live from the bread
And I know someday, we will live together
And we will be loved
And the planet Earth
It will belong to all of us, to all our brothers, animals, plants and lakes, rivers and mountains.
And everyone will have what they need.
The most glorious moments in your life are not the so-called days of success, but rather those days when out of dejection and despair you feel rise in you a challenge to life, and the promise of future accomplishment.
人生で最も輝かしい時は、いわゆる栄光の時でなく、むしろ落胆や絶望の中で人生への挑戦と未来への完遂の展望がわき上がるのを感じたときだ。
Gustave Flaubert
長いけど、これです。AppleのCM、覚えている方いますか？
"Think Different"
Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status-quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do. —Apple
Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand
[我々のすべきことは遠くにぼんやりとあるものを見ることではなく、手元にはっきりとあることをやることである] カーライルの言葉で、ウィリアム・オスラーがハーバードの医学生に向けて引用した言葉でもあります。受験生のときに覚えて今でも大好きな言葉です。
Don't spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door

I know this may sound kind of cliché. But it is true that there's always more than one way to get the same result, to achieve the same objective or to reach the same goal. So whatever others may say, just trust yourself and stick to your own way until the very end.
受験生の皆さん、最後まで自分を信じて自分のやり方で頑張れ！
• Just do it . 「やるしかない。」
• Better late than never . 「遅くてもやらないよりはまし。」

発端は「日本の学校英語はなぜあれほど役に立たないのか？」スレ、今は「英語を身につける意味とは？」スレに居候中（笑）

その英語の学習が趣味とか名乗るヤシは真意を問い質されても無視して、五度も六度も「金髪とfuck」と繰り返し、さらに恥毛の色を確認しろだの、股開けだの、荒らし以外のナニモノでもない書き込みをしていた。さらに「英語ネイティブと結婚したからといって自分まで英語が上手くなったような気になってドータラ、コータラ…自慢しやがってコンチクショウ…」てな具合で、誰も自慢していないことまで自慢に見えてしまう僻み根性丸出しのヤシだった。そんなヤシから何か建設的な意見が出てくると思うか?
やはりこれは外せないのでは？

Watch your thoughts, for they become words. Watch your words, for they become actions. Watch your actions, for they become habits. Watch your habits, for they become character. Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.
