We prefer deep reflections on Philosophy, Shakespearean Sonnets, and tender musings along the lines of:

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones. --Albert Einstein

This glad union hadmade it morning there, And evening here: our hemisphere was dark, While all the mountain bathed in white, when I Saw Beatrice turned around, facing left, her eyes raised to the sun-no eagle ever couls stare so fixed and straight into such light! -Dante, The Divine Comedy: Paradise

It is our continuing goal to foster the world's greatest converstation regarding all higher pursuits.

Equations are more important to me, because politics is for the present, but an equation is something for eternity. --Albert Einstein

LXXII

O! lest the world should task you to recite
What merit lived in me, that you should love
After my death,--dear love, forget me quite,
For you in me can nothing worthy prove;
Unless you would devise some virtuous lie,
To do more for me than mine own desert,
And hang more praise upon deceased I
Than niggard truth would willingly impart:
O! lest your true love may seem false in this
That you for love speak well of me untrue,
My name be buried where my body is,
And live no more to shame nor me nor you.
  For I am shamed by that which I bring forth,
  And so should you, to love things nothing worth.
 	--William Shakespeare
