Dreams, dreams are untapped and writhing. How much more real are dreams than that paltry existence which we now call reality? How shall we ascend to that which humanity is destined? By mastering the dreamworld of course. That is how, my pupils, that is how.

The best way to ensure that this topic gets posted in is to start a conversation because then people aren't posting just to post--they're posting to contribute to the discussion/conversation.
No, just post something philosophical and alert Wylder and some of the other eloquent Greek argumentors.
Cave of Skarzs

Cave potato.

"'Tis the business of small minds to shrink, but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles unto death."
-Thomas Paine

"Integrity and firmness is all I can promise; these, be the voyage long or short, shall never forsake me although I may be deserted by all men."
-George Washington

Courage: Not only the willingness to die manfully, but also the determination to live decently.

I believe that thunder is caused by water-laden clouds crashing together. (Wylder if you do not name the main book from which this is from you know nothing. ;D)

I know that I know nothing. That is what wisdom is, after all.

But if you know that you know nothing, then you know something. ;D

Well, to be fair, the accurate literal translation is "The only thing I know is that I know nothing." Translated idiomatically, Socrates was actually saying, "I am aware of my own ignorance."

However, "I know that I know nothing" is the popular form of that phrase- otherwise, no one would get the reference.
