“Time is the substance I am made of. Time is a river which sweeps me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger which destroys me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire which consumes me, but I am the fire.”
― Jorge Luis Borges, Labyrinths: Selected Stories & Other Writings

“Our hands are the tool of tools that we need to achieve. Our hands describe more than there is to their physique. Our hands are extensions of our minds, in as much as the branches are fruits of the roots of a tree. The rest is determined by the effort, persistence and consistency, whether we bear fruits or not.”
― Goitsemang Mvula

“We become what we behold. We shape our tools, and thereafter our tools shape us.”
― Marshall McLuhan

“IN THE HANDS OF MAN

He who creates a poison, also has the cure.
He who creates a virus, also has the antidote.
He who creates chaos, also has the ability to create peace.
He who sparks hate, also has the ability to transform it to love.
He who creates misery, also has the ability to destroy it with kindness.
He who creates sadness, also has the ability to to covert it to happiness.
He who creates darkness, can also be awakened to produce illumination.
He who spreads fear, can also be shaken to spread comfort.
Any problems created by the left hand of man,
Can also be solved with the right,
For he who manifests anything,
Also has the ability to
Destroy it.”
