Out of the tens of thousands of prosthetic legs they've made, there's never been any 400-meter athletes run under 50 seconds. so, if this was such a technologically advanced prosthetic leg, then how come not everyone's qualifying, or coming close to the qualification time, then?

The near side of a galaxy is tens of thousands of light-years closer to us than the far side; thus we see the front as it was tens of thousands of years before the back. but typical events in galactic dynamics occupy tens of millions of years, so the error in thinking of an image of a galaxy as frozen in one moment of time is small.

The thing i always try to remember is that feet are attached to the leg, and that you must prolong the silhouette. the shoe elongates the leg and does it discreetly. the goal is to get people to look at a woman's legs. it's all about the leg. no, it's not about the leg. it's about the woman.

Half of hollywood has more prosthetic in their body than i do, but we don't think of them as disabled. you amputate part of a nose, that's 'enhancement'. you put a prosthetic in a breast cavity, that's 'augmentation'. but you amputate part of a limb and put a prosthetic there, it's 'disability'?

In course of time the slow advance of knowledge, which has dispelled so many cherished illusions, convinced at least the more thoughtful portion of mankind that the alterations of summer and winter, of spring and autumn, were not merely the result of their own magical rites, but that some deeper cause, some mightier power, was at work behind the shifting scenes of nature.

Summer Autumn Mist
The golden line is drawn between winter and summer. behind all is blackness and darkness and dissolution. before is hope, and soft airs, and the flowers, and the sweet season of hay; and people will cross the fields, reading or walking with one another; and instead of the rain that soaks death into the heart of green things, will be the rain which they drink with delight; and there will be sleep on the grass at midday, and early rising in the morning, and long moonlight evenings.
Summer Sweet Morning
