  @dsmalone I saw this great quote regarding Ben Lawsky and his proposed bit license proposal to regulate bitcoin in NY.

  To Ben Lawsky:

  "A person no one elected is creating laws no one asked for to prevent problems which don’t exist."

  • Bruce Fenton

  I saw many quotes for Ben Lawsky, I like that guy.

  Here is quote from Sonya Parker that I like also

  "Personally , I'd rather be remembered for what I've done for the world , and not for how sexy I looked in a dress. The greatest people that ever lived are found in history books , and their remembered for what they've done for the world and not for how they looked. Always remember that you have more to offer the world than just your looks."

  This one isn't really a quote, but I still find it cool:

  According to the old story, King Midas had long hunted wise Silenus, Dionysus' companion, without catching him. When Silenus had finally fallen into his clutches, the king asked him what was the best and most desirable thing of all for mankind. The daemon stood still, stiff and motionless, until at last, forced by the king, he gave a shrill laugh and spoke these words: "Miserable, ephemeral race, children of hazard and hardship, why do you force me to say what it would be much more fruitful for you not to hear? The best of all things is something entirely outside your grasp: not to be born, not to be, to be nothing. But the second-best thing for you — is to die soon."

  Life is a big test, of many choices and for most people there are no bad choices only bad outcomes.

  Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back. Those who wish to sing always find a song. At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet. Plato

  People fear death even more than pain. It's strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of death, the pain is over. Yeah, I guess it is a friend.

  “The Anarch is to the anarchist, what the monarch is to the monarchist.”

  —Ernst Jünger

  “The partisan wants to change the law, the criminal break it; the anarch wants neither. He is not for or against the law. While not acknowledging the law, he does try to recognize it like the laws of nature, and he adjusts accordingly.”

  ― Ernst Jünger

  “I am an anarch – not because I despise authority, but because I need it. Likewise, I am not a nonbeliever, but a man who demands something worth believing in.”

  ― Ernst Jünger

  These are quotes from the book Eumeswil

  Thank you for the participation.

  "Throughout life people will make you mad, disrespect you and treat you bad. Let God deal with the things they do, cause hate in your heart will consume you too."

  The following is an exert from a short little something I wrote a couple years back..

  It always is. Even when it's not. Life is the sum total of our experiences, and how we choose to react to them. Our challenges define us, and make us stronger. Give us the opportunity to be the grandest version of ourselves that we may be, here in This moment. For this moment is all there is.
