And then we ask, why is there anything living? And then we ask, why is there anything at all?

Julia CameronMy young men shall never work, men who work cannot dream; and wisdom comes to us in dreams. You ask me to plow the ground. Shall I take a knife and tear my mothers breast? Then when I die she will not take me to her bosom to rest. You ask me to dig for stone. Shall I dig under her skin for her bones? Then when I die I cannot enter her body to be born again. You ask me to cut grass and make hay and sell it and be rich like white men. But how dare I cut off my mother's hair.
SmohallaThey ask how the universe is arranged, philosophers, mathematicians, and they draw pretty pictures, impossibilities on the page.

Rush LimbaughOf course, to avoid getting stuck in that convo with someone you dislike or feel uncomfortable around, don't be passive, be proactive.

Ask a Misdirection Question--something too difficult to answer quickly--e.g., 'What's Congress up to?' or 'You ever learn any cool science?' When you ask the question, don't make eye contact, keep moving and get out of there. Do not wait for a response and deny ever asking it. Repeat these actions until you are never again spoken to by that individual (about four times).
Eugene MirmanBased on the considerations of history, ancient history, and international axioms, the logic of following up a citizen with his shadow for the purpose of the demarcation of political frontiers of any state has been discounted for international conventions.

Sheryl SandbergMy parents raised me that you never ask people about their reproductive plans. โYou donโt know their situation,โ my mom would say.

Gordon B. HinckleyAlways it is thus with my new students, and especially with the human ones; the mind is the last muscle they train or use, and the one that they regard the least.
