The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.
— Hans Hofmann, quoted in Zen and the Art of Stand-up Comedy (1998)

To understand matters rightly we should understand their details, and as that knowledge is almost infinite, our knowledge is always superficial and imperfect.
— François VI, Duc de La Rochefoucauld, Reflections; or Sentences and Moral Maxims (1665–1678)

Be pitiful, for every man is fighting a hard battle.
— Ian Maclaren, The British Weekly (1898)

We must remember that our greatest strength is in our love of life and colors, beauty and music, dancing and joy. That is our secret weapon. That is something that the opposition does not have. Keep those things near and dear to your heart because in times of war that will sustain you.
— RuPaul Andre Charles, Billboard (2017)

Picture of the day

Krishna's Butterball is a large granite balancing rock that rests on a short incline in the coastal resort town of Mamallapuram in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It is approximately six metres (20 ft) high and five metres (16 ft) wide, with a mass of around 250 tonnes. It is balanced on a slope on top of a 1.2-metre-high (4 ft) plinth that is a naturally eroded hill. Krishna's Butterball is part of the Group of Monuments at Mahabalipuram, a UNESCO World Heritage Site built during the 7th and 8th centuries as Hindu religious monuments by the Pallava dynasty. It is now a popular tourist attraction.Photograph credit: Timothy A. Gonsalves
