Brain Droppings - of TPO ( Hénock Gugsa )

Hénock Gugsa






 



What gets my goat?
- Arrogance (hubris).
- Stupidity ... denials in the face of common sense or truth.
- Greed in all its manifestations.

What have I learned in life?
- There is always a deficiency of actual knowledge ... always room for growth.
- There is nothing new under the sun!
- It has all happened before in one form or another; the only thing new or amazing is our discovery of it.
- Intelligence and wisdom are not the same thing.
- Wisdom is far superior.

What is important and lasting?
- Compassion in all matters.
- Good deeds and great works of beauty and genius.
