A knave; a rascal; an eater of broken meats; a base, proud, shallow, beggarly, three-suited, hundred-pound, filthy, worsted-stocking knave; a lily-livered, action-taking knave, a whoreson, glass-gazing, super-serviceable finical rogue; one-trunk-inheriting slave; one that wouldst be a bawd, in way of good service, and art nothing but the composition of a knave, beggar, coward, pandar, and the son and heir of a mongrel bitch: one whom I will beat into clamorous whining, if thou deniest the least syllable of thy addition.: Earl of Kent, _The_Tragedy_of_King_Lear_
I married the first man I ever kissed. When I tell my children that, they just about throw up.: Barbara Bush (1925 - )
I said to my girl, 'Was it good for you too?' And she said, 'I don't think this was good for anybody.': Gary Shandling

Learning builds daily accumulation, but the practice of Tao builds daily simplification. Simplify and simplify, until all contamination from relative, contridictory thinking is eliminated.
