"Al-Biruni's fondness for Indians contributed to his interest and expertise in Indian mathematics and science. This fondness did not, however, prevent him from teasing them a little. Indian mathematics is very good, Al-Biruni says, but the most unusual gift Indian intellectuals have is something quite different: it is their ability to talk eloquently on subjects about which they know absolutely nothing."

"The premise here is that there is so much digital trail for our products that could affect how we are. This is also closely tied to the cultural appropriation stuff that I

“Since my house burned down
I now have a better view
of the rising moon”
Mizuta Masahide

“You may be deceived if you trust too much, but you will live in torment if you don't trust enough.”
FRANK CRANE

“Without purity of spirit,
if you're still in the middle of lust and greed,
and other wanting, you're like children
playing at sexual intercourse.

They wrestle,
and rub together, but its not sex!
The same with fightings of mankind.
Its a squabble with play swords.
No purpose, totally futile.”
Rumi (Selected Poems, page 4)

“He is a fellow without any collective significance, barely an individual”
L. F. Celine (The Church)

Stephen W. Hawking
“Quiet people have the loudest minds.”
Stephen Hawking
