March 7 Quotes of the day from previous years:


 * 2004 : May Heaven exist, even if my place is Hell. ~ Jorge Luis Borges


 * 2005 : Man is constituted as a speculative being; he contemplates the world, and the objects around him, not with a passive indifferent eye, but as a system disposed with order and design. ~ John Herschel (date of birth)


 * 2006 : Burn all the statutes and their shelves: They stir us up against our kind; And worse, against ourselves. We have a passion — make a law, Too false to guide us or control! And for the law itself we fight In bitterness of soul. And, puzzled, blinded thus, we lose Distinctions that are plain and few: These find I graven on my heart: That tells me what to do. ~ William Wordsworth in "Rob Roy's Grave" ~  (date of Rob Roy's birth)

Suggestions

 * … I will be a sham, but not a snob. I will let every man, woman, or child, no matter how greedy or wicked, claim to have a personal relationship with me. In other words, I will be as arbitrary, inconsistent, ignorant, pushy, and common as humans are, and what more have they ever wanted in a god? ~ the "small god"; "The Visitor" (2002) by Sheri S. Tepper (born March 1, 1968)
