Die Sonne der Kultur

Wenn die Sonne der Kultur niedrig steht, werfen selbst Zwerge einen langen Schatten. 

Quando il sole della cultura รจ basso, i nani proiettano un’ombra da giganti.

When the sun of knowledge is low, dwarfs cast a long shadow.

(Karl Kraus)

Educate the heart





The goal of school is to turn an egotistical heart into an all-compassionate one.

Master Han Shang had once asked Master Shi De: “People in the world slander me, bully me, insult me, laugh at me, belittle me and look down on me. What should I do about it?”
Master Shi De replied: “You only need to tolerate them, avoid them, let them be, be patient with them and never mind about them and then wait and see what happens to them a few years later!”

The Nonexistent Woman



She’s made of thin-air
                        - some say
“Sally doesn’t exist!” At least thats what they say.
            She’s a dream in a dream
                        fog on a sunny day
                                    so they say
            but who cares?
                        Who can deny
                                    that sometimes
                                                a dream
                                                            is not worth

                                                                   a thousand worlds?

(Dr. Divago)
