# John Barth

John Simmons Barth (May 27, 1930 – April 2, 2024) was an American novelist and short-story writer, known for the postmodernist and metafictive quality of his work.

## Quotes

* Women thought me charmingly shy, and sometimes stopped at nothing to “penetrate the disdainful shell of my fear,” as one of their number put it. Often as not, it was they who got penetrated.
** The Floating Opera (1956)
* The nightsea journey may be absurd, but here we swim, will-we nill-we, against the flood, onward and upward, toward a shore that may not exist and couldn't be reached if it did.
** Night-sea Journey, Lost In the Funhouse (1968)
* Marylin Marsh, who had about it with Spain, declared to him [the old Spanish man] [...] But it redounds to your national credit, the then Missus Turner went on in effect - she'd been reading up on reciprocal atrocities in the Guerra Civil - that the sunny Spanish could never be guilty of an Auschwitz, for example. In the first place, your ovens would have died, like our kitchen stove, instead of your Jews, whom you'd got rid of anyhow in the sunny Fifteenth century, no? And in the second place the whole idea of extermination camps would've been too impersonal for your exquisite Moorish tastes. Much more agradable to push folks off a cliff one at a time into a gorgeous Mediterranean sunset, as you did near Malaga - three hundred, was it, or three thousand? Or to rape and then kill a convent-full of nuns in the manner of the saint of their choice - was that Barcelona or Valencia?
** Sabbatical: A Romance, p. 37 (1982)
* One of the things I miss about teaching is that students would tell me what I ought to read. One of my students, back in the 1960s, put me onto [Jorge Luis] Borges, and I remember another mentioning Flann O'Brien's At Swim Two-Birds in the same way.
** Boston Sunday Globe, C7 (2 Nov 2008)

## Quotes about John Barth

* I got a lot of encouragement there from John Barth, a genius, a superb teacher
** Louise Erdrich Interview with The Paris Review (2010)
* [Johns] Hopkins had this very postmodernist slant. You couldn't help but be really influenced by this emphasis on the text, on experimental texts. People were fascinated with Robert Coover and Thomas Pynchon, and John Barth was there, and the focus was on that, which I found very helpful.
** 1986 interview in Conversations with Louise Erdrich and Michael Dorris edited by Allan Chavkin and Nancy Feyl Chavkin (1994)
* for me, self-consciousness vitiates creation. A writer like John Barth deliberately plays with self-consciousness; I doubt that Barth thinks much of my writing, and I don't take pleasure in his, but I know he knows what he's doing and I respect him for it.
** 1982 interview in Conversations with Ursula Le Guin

** ‘Let Us Avoid Escalating Violence’ Uganda’s peace advocate speaks Interview: Archbishop John Baptist Odama (Uganda) (3 July 2008)

## Quotes

* You (Israel) do have a peace agreement with Egypt. You do have a peace agreement with Jordan, and some kind of understandings with the Palestinians. But this is not the limit of the scope of where you belong. Israel is a country in the Middle East. Israel is part of this heritage of this whole region historically. So the Jewish people have a place amongst us. So communication needs to be a prerequisite for solving all the dispute. We should talk.
** Khalid bin Ahmed Al Khalifa (2019) cited in: "Bahrain foreign minister: Palestinians made a mistake by boycotting peace conference" in Axios, 27 June 2019.

## Quotes

* I'll say, ‘Hi, I'm Michelle Visage and I'm a drag queen' and that usually opens the door to the conversation. This is how I get my reputation. If you look on Google it'll say Michelle Visage is a man, the list goes on and on, but I am 100 per cent biological female, but RuPaul says it best when he says you're born naked and everything else is drag.
** "Who is Michelle Visage? Everything you need to know about the Celebrity Big Brother contestant", Daily Mirror (7 January 2015).
* I’m a gluten-free, soy-free vegan who also tries to be sugar-free as much as possible, so it can be crazy on the road trying to find things to eat. Once we were in Madison, Wisconsin and I was trying to explain what veganism was at a restaurant, and they went, “So can you eat roast beef?” […] When I was doing Celebrity Big Brother and Perez Hilton told me that I wasn’t the spokesperson for gay people, I said… well wait a second, I’m not a dog, does that mean I can’t fight and speak up for animal rights?
** "An Interview with the One and Only Michelle Visage", HuffPost (28 July 2017).
* One day when my kids are out and we’re retired I want to go to the country and have all sorts of rescue animals. The ones that nobody wants. The ones with three legs and missing an eyeball. The ones that are too old that people don’t want to adopt them.

## Quotes
### Spiritual Journey: Michio Kushi's Guide to Endless Self-Realization and Freedom (1994, with Edward Esko)

* Whenever you wash dishes, cook, or clean, if you make no sound, this is smartness itself. A person who enters a house and makes a lot of noise is revealing a lack of spirituality; even cats and dogs do not make unnecessary sounds, and man as he naturally is does not make any either.
** p. 4
* When you are angry, it means you, yourself are unhappy. Even if you are wronged, you are still making yourself unhappy if you feel anger.
** p. 41
* If you think of harming someone, this is the same as actually doing it, in terms of the spiritual world, since the spiritual world is vibrational, which includes thinking.
** p. 54
* Pasteur originally conceived the idea of germs and of destroying them. Although this started as a personal thing, it has mushroomed into DDT, killing beetles and worms, resulting in food contamination, much sickness, and trouble. Although he is regarded as hero by modern medicine, Pasteur will be treated in much the same way as a warmonger when he is judged in the spiritual world.
** p. 55
* All of our punishment institutions, including jails, laws, church confessionals, and so forth, are systems of illusion. The order of the universe, the infinite justice of yin and yang, naturally takes care of all motion and compensation. We don't need to invent arbitrary ways to make balance with punishments.
** p. 57
* Memory is merely the process of tuning into vibrations that have been left behind in space and time.
** p. 62
* Although the future exists, you can avoid or alter it by changing you present condition. By the quality of our condition, we attract or are attracted to particular types of experiences. If our condition is good we do not attract or need to experience certain events that would otherwise be necessary to balance our lives. We exert control over and have responsibility for our future because it is determined by our present condition.
** p. 63
* If you are eating well and your condition is pure and clean, life itself becomes like the dreams or visions that you have when sleeping.
** p. 64
* See the person's eating and cooking, and then you can judge his or her spirituality.
# Michelle Thaller

Michelle Lynn Thaller (November 28, 1969 –) is an American astronomer and research scientist.

## Quotes

* You can have all your scientific method down, all your experiments done accurately and recorded in minute detail. But most of the significant, universe-changing advances in science were not done by methodically plodding ahead with reasonable steps. Things like Einstein's theory of relativity or the foundations of quantum mechanics came about more as hunches. Scientists talk about a theory being elegant - it just feels right. Sometimes you have to just trust your instincts. People often talk about following your head or your heart, but sometimes there's a deeper feeling you follow. Sometimes you follow your guts, your instincts. Scientists are also trained to do that.
** A Romance written in the stars (February 25, 2002)
* I also love working for the government (no really!). There is more security working for a government lab and I didn't have to get tenure. The people at NASA are so good -so dedicated, so fun to be with
** I am Michelle Thaller, astronomer, NASA Scientist, and (most recently) podcast host. Ask me Anything! (December 21, 2015)
# Industrial marketing

Industrial marketing (or business-to-business marketing) is the marketing of goods and services by one business to another. Industrial goods are those an industry uses to produce an end product from one or more raw materials.

## Quotes

* Industrial marketing should be understood as a relationship-specific rather than a transaction-specific construct.
** Christian Homburg, and Bettina Rudolph. "Customer satisfaction in industrial markets: dimensional and multiple role issues." Journal of Business Research 52.1 (2001): 15-33.
* In industrial marketing settings, the relationship between buyer and seller is frequently long term, close and involving a complex pattern of interaction between and within each company. The marketers' and buyers' task in this case may have more to do with maintaining these relationships than with making a straightforward sale or purchase.
** Hakan Hakansson (1982), International Marketing and Purchasing of Industrial Goods: An Interaction Approach. London: John Wiley and Sons, p. 14; as cited in : Christian Homburg (2001, 16)

* Perfection isn’t a thing, It is a moment. A very brief moment that in time, that is lost as the world and the universe continues to move around you. If we are going to reject solutions because they aren’t perfect or come from imperfect people, then we will never move forward.

# K-os

Kevin Brereton (born 20 February 1972), better known by his stage name k-os, is a Canadian alternative rapper, singer, songwriter and record producer.

## Quotes

* I read something one day: “If someone can’t actually kill animals themselves to eat meat …,” which really put me over the top. I can’t remember where I read that, but I wouldn’t. I think a lot of people live life through convenience. … I don’t think that I fully realized until I stopped eating [meat] how much it was a part of society and how much it was affecting me. … Like anything else, you’ve been indoctrinated from day one. … when you stop eating meat, you stop supporting slaughtering animals. … people need to be more responsible for everything around them, you know—animal rights.
** "K-OS", interview with peta2 (20 July 2011).
* We've put animals in categories. There's bad ones — rats and whatever — and there's beautiful ones like dogs and fluffy ones. And that's just gross. Man should love all animals equally and realize it's part of their family.

# Jürgen Moltmann

Jürgen Moltmann (8 April 1926 – 3 June 2024) was a German Reformed theologian and Professor Emeritus of Systematic Theology at the University of Tübingen.

## Quotes

* One cannot grasp freedom in faith without hearing simultaneously the categorical imperative: One must serve through bodily, social and political obedience the liberation of the suffering creation out of real affliction. ... Consequently, the missionary proclamation of the cross of the Resurrected One is not an opium of the people which intoxicates and incapacitates, but the ferment of new freedom. It leads to the awaking of that revolt which, in the "power of the resurrection" ... follows the categorical imperative to overthrow all conditions in which man is a being who labors and is heavily laden,
** "Toward a Political Hermeneutics of the Gospel," Union Seminary Quarterly Review, vol. 23, no. 4 (Summer 1968), pp. 313-314, as quoted in Black Theology and Black Power (1969), p. 37
* Christian identity can be understood only as an act of identification with the crucified Christ, to the extent to which one has accepted the proclamation that in him God has identified himself with the godless and those abandoned by God.

## Quotes

* If you start to count how many countries participated from Europe (in this Open Parliament in a Post-COVID Context: Global Examples of Resilience and Planning for 2022 and Beyond forum in Taipei on 9–10 December 2021), it is a big amount and it means that at least the politicians in those countries are supporting EU ties with Taiwan.

## Dooley

* Alright, let's get one thing straight: The woman is mine! Now we're both members of the animal kingdom. You know that and I know that. And we both know that this thing is really primal. So if you think you're such a badass, you just try that one more time and you're gonna end up in a pet cemetery! You remember the movie Old Yeller? You remember when they shot him in the end? I didn't cry! Now come on!
* [helicopter pilots are shooting up Dooley's car] Well, it's not the Eyewitness News Team. [flames erupt underneath Dooley's car] I think somebody is mad at me. [Dooley's car explodes] DEFINITELY somebody is mad at me.

## Dialogue

    Lyman: Dooley, what is it about me that makes you so passionate?
    Dooley: Well, it's not your looks, Lyman. I guess it's your job.
    Lyman: And knowing your methods of law enforcement, I don't suppose that you have a search warrant?
    Dooley: Dog ate it. You can hang around his tail for an hour.
    [Dooley meets Jerry Lee]
    Brannigan: There he is, the best nose on the force. He could stick that snout in the wind right now and lead you to a stash in the middle of Tijuana.
    Dooley: Listen, I gotta be up front with you. I got a real bad feeling about this dog.
    Brannigan: Hey, tough shit. That's all I got. Not I want you to take care.
    Dooley: Don't worry about the dog.
    Brannigan: It's not the dog I'm worried about.
    [Jerry Lee has just single handedly taken out an entire bar of thugs who were roughing up Dooley]
    Dooley: I want you to know that I'm the officer in charge here, Michael Dooley not Jerry Lee.
    Jerry Lee: [looks at Dooley]
    Dooley: Don't you ever... [pause] *ever* pull anything like that again, without talking to me first.
    Jerry Lee: [puts his head down]
    Dooley: You lost it in there you know that, you lost control, we could be killed. :[pause] I needed you back here.
    Jerry Lee: [slowly lifts his head and looks at Dooley]
    Dooley: What if they ran out? [pause] You could've got them here. You understand?
    Jerry Lee: [looks down]
    Tracy: Do you know you have an animal growing out of your pants?
    Dooley: Thanks, hon. I also have a dog here.
