OK, let's have a "Quotes" thread!

The Dali Lama told me that at least once a year I should go to a place I have never been before.

“Is it therefore infallibly agreeable to the Word of God, all that you say? I beseech you, in the bowels of Christ, think it possible you may be mistaken.”

Six-year-olds could understand why so many gods, if explained by more than 2* perspectives... lol!

"The Real Meaning of 'Zero Trans Fats'

Only when the food*label*states "no trans fats" does it really mean there are none. The problem is that small amounts of these artery-clogging fats can add up quickly, especially if you eat several servings each day of foods that contain up to 0.5 grams per serving.

Some quotes from A. Hitler about how Propaganda works, they gained new relevance in our current social media populism times.
I can't find an English translation but here is one in German:

Aber alle Genialität der Aufmachung der Propaganda wird zu keinem Erfolg führen, wenn nicht ein fundamentaler Grundsatz immer gleich scharf berücksichtigt wird. Sie hat sich auf wenig zu beschränken und dieses ewig zu wiederholen.

Obviously: comparing the current situation to Hitler's visions is my highest form of criticism.

When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.

When a man is tired of
