May. 12th, 2008 01:53 amYou have no idea how aggravating it can be to realize that you just went to a lot of trouble to post links in THE WRONG JOURNAL!!
Here it is again.
Thanks to![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
mercuryblue for reminding me of an old favorite short story, and providing a link. Here it is, along with two others. All three are about rethinking what you think you know.
How it Happened by Issac Asimov
The Immortal Bard by Issac Asimov
The Nine Billion Names of God By Arthur C. Clarke
I have no idea if these are posted legally or not. If they can be found, each of these short stories is worth having to buy a whole book for.

Tallulah quotes
Dec. 30th, 2007 04:48 pmThere have been only two geniuses in the world. Willie Mays and Willie Shakespeare. But, darling, I think you'd better put Shakespeare first. - Actress Tallulah Bankhead (1962)
Here's a rule I recommend: Never practice two vices at once.
Tallulah Bankhead
I'm as pure as the driven slush.
Tallulah Bankhead
If I had to live my life again, I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner.
Tallulah Bankhead
It's the good girls who keep diaries; the bad girls never have the time.
Tallulah Bankhead
Nobody can be exactly like me. Sometimes even I have trouble doing it.

All the World's a Stage...

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more. Is is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
. --MacBeth act V scene V
. --Shakespeare
