I'm a polymath.
What??
You heard me, a polymath.
So, what the hell's that?
A polymath is someone who gets bored doing the same thing all the time.
So, what do you do?
Well, a little bit of everything.
Look. This is a writers' forum.
I know that.
So, what do you write about?
Oh, a little bit of everything.
Come on!
You should read some of my books.
Why?
Well, they're different; not the same old stuff. You know what I mean?
No, I don't.
Aha! Then you'll just have to see for yourself, won't you?
You mean, like read your stuff?
Bingo!

Blog Post the First

People told me that having a weblog is a good idea, so I thought I'd better try it. No guarantees, but here goes.

Life is good! It sure beats the alternative, but I really haven't got time for that, considering all the writing I have to do in addition to enjoying life.

This is an incredible opportunity, folks. I mean this Earth of ours, this planet. Many people keep looking elsewhere in the Univer Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by David Bennett Laing  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“As a perfect and deserving child of the perfect and provident Universe, I have been fully equipped by Life with the power to maintain myself in health and happiness, to overcome fear, reaction, self-doubt, and escape, and to succeed at any goal of my choosing that does not disrespect others or conflict with Universal Harmony.”
David Bennett Laing, How to be YOU! A Winner's Guide to Self-Empowerment

“Unless you make yourself equal to God, you cannot understand God: for the like is not intelligible save to the like. Make yourself grow to a greatness beyond measure, by a bound free yourself from the body; raise yourself above all time, become Eternity; then you will understand God. Believe that nothing is impossible for you, think yourself immortal and capable of understanding all, all arts, all sciences, the nature of every living being. Mount higher than the highest height; descend lower than the lowest depth. Draw into yourself all sensations of everything created, fire and water, dry and moist, imagining that you are everywhere, on earth, in the sea, in the sky, that you are not yet born, in the maternal womb, adolescent, old, dead, beyond death. If you embrace in your thought all things at once, times, places, substances, qualities, quantities, you may understand God.”
Giordano Bruno
