The Corollary To Newton's Third Law Of Motion

________________________________________________________________________________________________

Newton's Third Law states:

For every action,

there is an equal and positive reaction.

But the  Institute Of Inane Research

discovered a corollary to this Law:

For some actions, 

there is an  unequal and negative reaction.

A Quote From Amusing Ourselves To Death

________________________________________________________________________________________________

Americans no longer talk to each other, 

they entertain each other.

They do not exchange ideas, 

they exchange images.

They do not argue with propositions; 

they argue with good looks, 

celebrities and commercials.

Neil Postman

2 Pray Or Not 2 Pray

To pray or not to pray

May or may not

Mr. Johnson's Lament

________________________________________________________________________________________________

The rocket

that flared  with red glare

is now fueled

by flat air

so it does seem

giving  transport

to a yellow stream
and a lost dream

I Will Never Stop Quoting DAWN POWELL

________________________________________________________________________________________________

If she was restless now, it was not that

she wanted an affair for lust's sake.

She had a genuine distaste for sexual

intimacy and hated to sacrifice 

a facial appointment for 

a mere frolic in bed.

But there were so many things

to be gained by trading on sex

and she thought so little 

of the process that she itched

to use it as currency once again,

trading a half-hour in bed

for a flattering friendship,

a royal invitation...

power of whatever sort

appealed to her.

   

Dawn Powell

 A Time To Be Born

(1942)

of this edition.
