Quincy laughed. "If I were Elizabeth I shouldn't thank either of you for that comforting diagnosis. Would it do any good to open Aunt Sarai's grave and drive a stake through her? If you believe in as much sorcery as that, you must regret the days of witch-burners, Carew." Carew said quietly, "No. Witch-burners were barbarous blunderers. If I wanted to suppress a dangerous letter, could I do it by burning the envelope and leaving the letter loose? The witch would come back unchanged; I should merely have postponed the danger until another time and place. And have further handicapped myself to meet it, by depriving the witch, by violent death, of the years allotted her, or him, for evolution." Joseph said with dry humor, "She might not have used them for that, Carew. At least not for your idea of it." Carew shrugged. "That would be her responsibility, not mine. And, in any case, she would be that many years nearer the time of her inevitable change." This time Joseph did not answer, only smiled. ↗

I'm an alien 'cause I'm not of this world. I have a name but I've been changed and now I can't stay the same. And I'm a loser if that means I've been lost before... I'm a monster if that means I'm misunderstood. 'Cause it's alive and I can't hide it. The energy is rising. And I'm a traitor if that means I've turned on myself. I can't deny it, it's like a riot. I can't keep it quiet. ↗

In fact, quantitative findings of any material and energy changes preserve their full context only through their being seen and understood as parts of a natural order. ↗

If there is no fundamental science then there is no basis for applied science. We have to strike a balance. 23 years ago the World Wide Web was born here. It has changed the world dramatically. ↗

When time and space and change converge, we find place. We arrive in Place when we resolve things. Place is peace of mind and understanding. Place is knowledge of self. Place is resolution. ↗
