Anonymous - Thoughts of a Teenager

[English] 4 hours, 40 minutes by mcmacladdie

At what point does a teacher's beratement become too much for even a student to handle. It is common for teachers to dig into their students for something they did wrong, but is it all necessary. I've witnessed firsthand students that have cried in front of their teachers because of something the teacher said and it is horrifying.

What is Apple, after all? Apple is about people who think 'outside the box,' people who want to use computers to help them change the world, to help them create things that make a difference, and not just to get a job done.

aranumenwen - DA Journal

[English] 1 day, 5 hours by dcb87

Soon I'll be so far gone, even you'll forget where I started. A dismal hypothesis formed from pure experience and foresight. Inevitable even, shame on us. Actions, consequences, or an unyielding existence lacking the sweet presumptions of neither rapture or surrender. Ominous to both the mind and the body.

Michael Parenti - Democracy for the Few

[English] 1 day, 8 hours by lilbit6986

The desire to "make it," even at the expense of others, is not merely a wrong-headed attitude but a reflection of the material conditions of capitalist society, wherein no one is ever really economically secure except the superrich.

That face in the mirror that was always so great had some room for improvement instead of just hate. So I stopped blaming others and I started to grow. My play got much better and it started to show. And all of my teammates didn't seem quite so bad I learned to depend on the good friends. I now I like myself much better since I started to see That I was lousy being great - I'm much better being me.

Honoré de Balzac - Le Père Goriot

[Français (French)] 1 day, 13 hours by vivelevent

Rastignac, resté seul, fit quelques pas vers le haut du cimetière et vit Paris tortueusement couché le long des deux rives de la Seine, où commençaient à briller les lumières. Ses yeux s'attachèrent presque avidement entre la colonne de la place Vendôme et le dôme des Invalides, là où vivait ce beau monde dans lequel il avait voulu pénétrer. Il lança sur cette ruche bourdonnante un regard qui semblait par avance en pomper le miel, et dit ces mots grandioses : "A nous deux maintenant !."

To a superficial mind a deck of cards is simply fifty-two pasteboards forming a jumbled mass of painted figures and numbers appearing in a chaotic succession and disorder. At first glance fickle Hazard seems to dominate all and so pernicious has been the lure of Chance on ignorant minds that in older days many church people thundered against the "devil's ticket"

La puerta trasera de la casa estaba abierta. Un miembro del equipo de la escena del crimen estaba en el umbral. Parecía estudiar el patio desde la perspectiva de la casa. Gurney sabía exactamente lo que el hombre estaba haciendo. Cuando estabas en la escena del crimen, tendías a pasar mucho tiempo solo en captar una sensación, muchas veces intentando verla como podría haberla visto la víctima en sus momentos finales.

Lewis V. Cummings - Alexander The Great

The record of the first two hundred years of the existence of the Macedonians as a nation is lost in the mists of antiquity, though we are told a pretty fable about it. Fables, however, need not concern us except to bear in mind that fables, in those days, were often accepted as fact, and it is axiomatic that fable is less important than truth, if the untruh is believed truth.

A veces, solo quiero volver al pasado y andar por el mundo con tu mano en mi mano, a veces, solo a veces. Si tú no estás más junto a mí, ya no sabré cómo vivir sin ti. Si tu no estás, mi corazón ya no sabrá cómo latir sin ti. Si tú no estás más junto a mí, ya no sabré cómo seguir. Si tú no estás, ya no hay más nada ni tengo nada, porque soy nada sin ti.

Walt Whitman - When I head the learn'd Astronomer

[English] 5 days, 8 hours by justarandom

When I heard the learn'd astronomer. When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me. When I was shown the charts and diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them. When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with much applause in the lecture row. How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick, till rising and gliding out I wander'd off by myself, in the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time, looked up in perfect silence at the stars.

I sometimes ask myself - "What is wrong with people?" - But that just can drive a person crazy trying to figure that out. So, % am just asking - "What is wrong with me...?..." 'Nothing that just being my authentic self cannot overcome.' (and if not that - I'll 'go down in flames' - 'crash and burn' - or simply 'fall on my face' - But will do so as myself and at least be original.) *(Then I'll pick myself up, dust myself off, and have another go at it.).

[English] 1 week, 1 day by ironherald

In this grave hour, perhaps the most fateful in our history, I send to every household of my peoples, both at home and overseas, this message, spoken with the same depth of feeling for each one of you as if I were able to cross your threshold and speak to you myself. For the second time in the lives of most of us we are at war. Over and over again we have tried to find a peaceful way out of the differences between ourselves and those who are now our enemies. But it has been in vain.

Who's broad striped and bright stars Through the perilous fight O'er the ramparts we watched Were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare! The bombs bursting in air! Gave proof through the night That our flag was still there Oh, say does that star spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free And the home of the brave?

No matter how long we exist, we have our memories. Points in time which time itself cannot erase. Suffering may distort my backward glances, but even to suffering, some memories will yield nothing of their beauty or their splendor. Rather they remain as hard as gems.
