Theognis of Megara

Theognis of Megara (fl. 6th century BC) was an ancient Greek poet. More than half of the elegiac poetry of Greece before the Alexandrian period is included in the 1,400 lines ascribed to Theognis.

Elegies

 * One finds many companions for food and drink, but in a serious business a man's companions are few.
 * Line 115.

 * We struggle onward, ignorant and blind,
 * For a result unknown and undesign’d;
 * Avoiding seeming ills, misunderstood,
 * Embracing evil as a seeming good.
 * Lines 137-139, as translated by J. Banks, The Works of Hesiod, Callimachus, and Theognis (1856), p. 464

Κύρν᾽: ἀρετῆς δ᾽ ὀλίγοις ἀνδράσι μοῖρ᾽ ἕπεται.
 * χρήματα μὲν δαίμων καὶ παγκάκῳ ἀνδρὶ δίδωσιν,
 * Even to a wicked man a divinity gives wealth, Cyrus, but to few men comes the gift of excellence.
 * Line 149-150

 * Surfeit begets insolence, when prosperity comes to a bad man.
 * Line 153.

 * The lucky man is honored ...
 * But earnest striving wins no praise at all.
 * Lines 169-170, as translated by Dorothea Wender.

 * Adopt the character of the twisting octopus, which takes on the appearance of the nearby rock. Now follow in this direction, now turn a different hue.
 * Line 215.

 * Don’t wag the tail of life if it goes well,
 * But leave in undisturbed. If it should go
 * Badly, rock it until it straightens up.
 * Lines 303-305, as translated by Dorothea Wender.

 * πολλοί τοι πλουτοῦσι κακοί, ἀγαθοὶ δὲ πένονται:
 * ἀλλ᾽ ἡμεῖς τούτοις οὐ διαμειψόμεθα
 * τῆς ἀρετῆς τὸν πλοῦτον, ἐπεὶ τὸ μὲν ἔμπεδον αἰεί,
 * χρήματα δ᾽ ἀνθρώπων ἄλλοτε ἄλλος ἔχει.
 * Many bad men are rich, many good men are poor. But we will not exchange wealth for virtue along with them. One man has money now, another has money at another time. Money goes around, whereas virtue endures.
 * Lines 315-318, also attributed to Solon

 * Too many tongues have gates which fly apart Too easily, and care for many things That don’t concern them.
 * Lines 421-423, as translated by Dorothea Wender.

 * Πάντων μὲν μὴ φῦναι ἐπιχθονίοισιν ἄριστον μηδ' ἐσιδεῖν αὐγὰς ὀξέος ἠελίου, φύντα δ' ὅπως ὤκιστα πύλας Ἀίδαο περῆσαι καὶ κεῖσθαι πολλὴν γῆν ἐπαμησάμενον.
 * The best of all things for earthly men is not to be born and not to see the beams of the bright sun; but if born, then as quickly as possible to pass the gates of Hades, and to lie deep buried.
 * Lines 425-428.

 * ἀμφ' ἀρετῇ τρίβου, καί τοι τὰ δίκαια φίλ’ ἔστω,
 * μηδέ σε νικάτω κέρδος ὅ τ’ αἰσχρὸν ἔῃ.
 * Spend time on excellence, and love the right,
 * And don’t let shameful profit master you.
 * Lines 465-466, as translated by Dorothea Wender.

 * Wine is wont to show the mind of man.
 * Line 500.

 * Ploutos, no wonder mortals worship you: You are so tolerant of their sins!
 * Lines 523-524, as translated by Dorothea Wender.

 * Unless the gods deceive my mind, That man is forging fetters for himself.
 * Lines 539-540, as translated by Dorothea Wender.

 * The deckhands are in control, and the base have the upper hand over the noble.
 * Line 667

 * No man takes with him to Hades all his exceeding wealth.
 * Line 725, comparable to: "For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away, his glory shall not descend after him", Psalm xlix, 17.

 * Bright youth passes swiftly as a thought.
 * Line 985.

Quotes about Theognis

 * Theognis appears as a finely formed nobleman who has fallen on bad times, with the passions of a nobleman such as his time loved, full of fatal hatred toward the upward striving masses, tossed about by a sad fate that wore him down and made him milder in many respects. He is a characteristic image of that old, ingenious somewhat spoiled and no longer firmly rooted blood nobility, placed at the boundary of an old and a new era, a distorted Janus-head, since what is past seems so beautiful and enviable, that which is coming — something that basically has an equal entitlement — seems disgusting and repulsive; a typical head for all those noble figures who represent the aristocracy prior to a popular revolution and who struggle for the existence of the class of nobles as for their individual existence.
 * Friedrich Nietzsche, as quoted in Friedrich Nietzsche (1978) by Curt Paul Janz, quoted and translated in On the Genealogy of Morality : A Polemic (1998) by Maudemarie Clark and Alan Swensen, p. 133.

Wikiquote talk:WikiProject Policy Revision/Archives/2007-04

Have reviewed all pages in the Wikiquote namespace and categorized, will do more tomorrow to sort through and start getting ideas together. -- Essjay ·   Talk 22:22, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Backlog at Category:Policy drafts
We currently have a backlog of policies currently being drafted. In order for them to become official policies, we need community review and acceptance. The following is a listing of the policies themselves. Please review them and post your comments below under the appropriate section. If you agree with all them completely, place Endorse followed by your signature. If you have comments or concerns, place them next to a bullet, but please note that your comments may be struck out when they become irrelevant to remove confusion. Thanks, WikiProject Policy Revision  Cbrown1023  talk  21:31, 18 February 2007 (UTC).

 * Questions:
 * Who speaks on the above on whose behalf?
 * Who is invited to submit his or her endorsement?
 * Where was this "endorsement" announced? I checked VP and CP but haven't no annoucement. By myself I cannot invite the community since I have no idea who I can invite on whose behalf.
 * In which situation those "endorsement" become effective?

I think it is a good idea in general, but the "invitation of review and ask for endorsement" seems to be haste and not well constructed. Aphaia 08:34, 19 February 2007 (UTC) P.S. I noticed an editor have edited a draft and then endorse his version. I don't care it since that is anywa y a draft and everyone is invited to edit (though personally I think it is not a careful deed). However I don't have idea if it is meaningful to open the draft for editing and to ask endorsement for the current version, not a particular frozen version at a certain moment. Aphaia 08:54, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * The above is supposed to be spoke on behalf of the attached project page, meaning that all members of this WikiProject can edit it. (There are only two active members, Jeff and myself, and Jeff knows that he has the right to edit my comments to a certain degree per my comments at Meta.)
 * Anyone is allowed to place their endorsement.
 * The above was announced on the WQ:AN and you can announce it wherever else you would like. Funny you should ask that right now, because I was just looking for other places to put it.
 * We don't know when this will end yet because we don't know how long it will take people to respond.
 * Re: P.S. Anyone can edit, there is nothing finalized yet.  Cbrown1023  talk  17:39, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Blocking policy

 * Endorse  Cbrown1023  talk  04:49, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: While I support nearly everything in this policy, I still think there should be some provision for those (hopefully rare) occasions when it does make sense to block someone indefinitely. Otherwise, I would endorse this policy. ~ UDScott 17:55, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I thought that matter would have been settled in my addition of the "Elastic clause".  Cbrown1023  talk  18:00, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Ah yes, you are correct. I guess I glossed over that part. ~ UDScott 18:13, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * I once placed an indefinite block on an IP user who created an attack page which included the Social Security, bank account and credit card numbers of the person being attacked. Even if it was a hoax, it needed permanent blocking, so it seemed to me, because of the potentially quite serious damage that could have been caused if the info was real.  I did this as an  instance of what would be called "Ignore All Rules" and would consider it to be defensible now as part of the Elastic Clause provisions.  I mention this here as an example of using the clause and because it occurs to me that I had not pointed it out at the time.  If there is a consensus to reverse the judgment I made, I will look for the IP in the blocking log and will change the block.  - InvisibleSun 21:06, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * That is one of instances, another one would be heavy long-term vandalism, heavy sockpuppet usage, "Cplot" on en-wiki... there is a large amount of possible instances.  Cbrown1023  talk  21:27, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Endorse. ~ UDScott 18:13, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Copyrights

 * Endorse. ~ UDScott 17:56, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Protected page
moved to Wikiquote talk:Protected page

Votes for deletion/Log

 * Endorse ~ Jeff Q (talk) 01:39, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Endorse  Cbrown1023  talk  04:34, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Endorse. ~ UDScott 17:58, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Image use policy

 * Endorse the current "no new uploads here; use Commons instead" policy. We have no specific statement yet about existing images, licensed or not. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 01:43, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment I have added a clause in the policy about past images and their fate, please review and comment.  Cbrown1023  talk  04:29, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Endorse  Cbrown1023  talk  04:29, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Endorse. ~ UDScott 17:58, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Sourcing

 * Endorse  Cbrown1023  talk  04:32, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment: This draft is not yet ready to be progressed. In particular, there are a number of areas which need to be gone over and/or written by an editor with experience in sourcing audiovisual works.  121a0012 15:05, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

General comments
I expect not to comment or vote on many of these policies for a few weeks. We've been operating for more than a year in some cases on a loose attachment to these draft policies, relying on the ability to call on Wikipedia developments when appropriate, and general sysop judgment in many cases. I don't want to attempt to lock down all of these policies at once. Nevertheless, I appreciate Cbrown1023's effort to move us forward on these things, and I hope that we'll get a good bit of review and consideration on them. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 19:16, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Cbrown1023's initiatives for formalization of those drafts is welcome, and I admit some documents are almost okay to bring to that stage of call for endorsement. On the other hand, having answered by Cbrown1023 no those documents are frozen and in possibility of later revisioning regarding as the answer if it was okay he revised a policy draft once after another editor had endorsed, I have no good reason to endorse the documents in such situation; or my endorsement would be given to the document I haven't had a chance to review it. Such request for endorsement is meaningful only for a particular revision of documents given with permalinks or shortly "frozen" versions in my opinion. Again I daresay, I wouldn't like to give my carte blanche to other editors even I know they are on a good faith. --Aphaia 09:45, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Request for completion of categorization
At the top of this talk Essjay said "All pages categorized", and it seems true at that time but categories themselves were not placed in the category tree. Since isolated categories for documents were created and it is not so much helpful to grasp the situation in a sight (at least for me). There are uncategorized categories including:

 * Category:Policies needing adoption
 * Category:Policies needing expansion
 * Category:Policies revised and adopted
 * Category:Policy Revision
 * Category:Wikiquote policies

Since you guys may have ideas their structure, I would invite you to put them their own place. If you have no interest, I'd like to take care of their meta-categorization in this weekend unless you have a good reason to leave them isolated rather than categorized at this moment. --Aphaia 09:38, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

A relevant proposal is found at Category talk:Wikiquote policies. I would invite all interested parties, specially participants of this project. --Aphaia 06:23, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Since no one gave feedback, I've become so bold as to make an action. All the above are now subcategorized under Category:Policies and guidelines. --Aphaia 09:39, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks and sorry no one responded!  Cbrown1023  talk  22:40, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Next step
Last month, Cbrown1023 invited the community to this page to review the listed policy drafts and endorse whatever they think nice/ready to adopt. Now, the last edit to this page is done more than one month before and I think we won't see any change in a near future.

Now I think we can step to the next stage, adopt some, try to revise some either in dispute or not attractive for the community. Say:
 * There are two policy drafts with three endorsement and no opposition (Votes for deletion/Log and Image use policy). I think we are ready to adopt it to the community as an official policy. If appropriate, I would invite the community to make a final review in a week or so.
 * We are ready to adopt on these two, I believe.  Cbrown1023  talk  17:26, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
 * There is another policy draft with two endorsement and also no opposition (Blocking policy). This could be a candidate for the last minute review as well the draft on the above.
 * I support that this should be done.  Cbrown1023  talk  17:26, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
 * One point we would remind - even after turning them into the official policies, it doesn't mean they are set in stone and never revised. All community member are invited to take initiatives for their improvement. Now we are only to confirm those pages reflect properly the existing community consensus and we can rely on them to handle incidents on the community for a while.
 * The policy about protection seems to need to be discuss, but it is regarding how to run it rather than its core thought. We will be able to discuss details on its talk page, and later ask a review.
 * Yes.  Cbrown1023  talk  17:26, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Other drafts have no objection, but only one endorsement or nothing. Perhaps they aren't ripe enough adopted to our community for now, or just we aren't. However, if anyone isn't unhappy, and I assume perhaps we are doing so already, we will be able to adopt them "policy drafts in experiment"? If they go along with the reality of our community, later - in one month or longer - we would like to consider them as official policies. Otherwise, we'll stop our experiment and put them back to the former status, policy draft in discussion.
 * I would prefer we just hold these until they get at least 2 endorsements.  Cbrown1023  talk  17:26, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

 * In this one month we have other new concerns, including Licensing Policy (see WQ:VP. I think it would be better for us to reassign priorities to our issues and try to deal things critical or in urgent need. Also as I stated before, the procedure calling for endorsement could be elaborated. After we deal the current request for endorsement, I would like to try improving its procedure.
 * I agree that thi is needed.  Cbrown1023  talk  17:26, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
 * About procedure, I make up a note on User:Aphaia/Policy making. It isn't far away from our existing custom to approve policies and guidelines. Hopefully it could be a starter to the further discussion. --Aphaia 01:43, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Your comment will be appreciated. --Aphaia 16:43, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

 * Since April 21, there has been one clear support, no objection, so I tagged them as Official policy. If you think I acted too boldly, please revert it and make a comment. If there is no objection within three days, I'd take it your approval. --Aphaia 22:37, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

All lyrics written by Neil Peart, except as noted.

Rush (1974)

 * Well I get up at 7 yeah and I go to work at 9 I got no time for living I'm working all the time It seems to me I could live my life a lot better than I think I am. I guess that's why they call me, they call me the workin' man. I get home at five o'clock and I take a sip out an ice cold beer always seem to be wondering why there's nothing going on around here It seems to me I could live my life a lot better than I think I am. I guess that's why they call me, they call me the workin' man.
 * Working Man, written by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson

Fly By Night (1975)

 * Live for yourself -- there's no one else More worth living for Begging hands and bleeding hearts will only cry out for more
 * Anthem

 * The battle's over and the dust is clearing Disciples of the Snow Dog sound the knell Rejoicing echoes as the dawn is nearing By-Tor, in defeat, retreats to Hell.
 * By-Tor and the Snow Dog

 * Snow Dog is victorious The land of the Overworld is saved again
 * By-Tor and the Snow Dog

 * Quiet and pensive My thoughts apprehensive The hours drift away Leaving my homeland Playing a lone hand My life begins today
 * Fly by Night

 * You feel there's something calling you You're wanting to return To where the misty mountains rise and friendly fires burn A place you can escape the world Where the dark lord cannot go Peace of mind and sanctuary by loud water's flow
 * Rivendell

Caress Of Steel (1975)

 * For they marched up to Bastille Day La guillotine -- claimed her bloody prize Hear the echoes of the centuries Power isn't all that money buys
 * Bastille Day

 * I am born, I am me, I am new, I am free. Look at me, I am young, sight unseen, life unsung.
 * In the Valley from The Fountain of Lamneth

2112 (1976)

 * You don't get something for nothing You can't have freedom for free You won't get wise With the sleep still in your eyes No matter what your dreams might be
 * Something For Nothing

A Farewell To Kings (1977)

 * When they turn the pages of history When these days have passed long ago Will they read of us with sadness For the seeds that we let grow We turned our gaze From the castles in the distance Eyes cast down On the path of least resistance
 * A Farewell To Kings

 * Held within the pleasure dome Decreed by Kubla Khan To taste my bitter triumph, as a mad immortal man Never more shall I return/Escape these caves of ice For I have dined on honey dew and drunk the milk of paradise.
 * Xanadu

 * And the men who hold high places Must be the ones to start To mold a new reality Closer to the Heart
 * Closer To The Heart, written by Neil Peart and Peter Talbot

 * Madrigal

Hemispheres (1978)

 * They battled through the ages, But still neither force would yield. The people were divided, Every soul a battlefield.
 * Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres

 * All the same, we take our chances, Laughed at by Time, Tricked by Circumstances. Plus ca change, Plus c'est la meme chose, The more that things change, The more they stay the same.
 * Circumstances

 * So the maples formed a union And demanded equal rights. "The oaks are just too greedy; We will make them give us light." Now there's no more oak oppression, For they passed a noble law, And the trees are all kept equal By hatchet, axe, and saw.
 * The Trees

Permanent Waves (1980)

 * Invisible airwaves crackle with life Bright antennae bristle with the energy Emotional feedback on a timeless wavelength Bearing a gift beyond price Almost Free
 * The Spirit of Radio

 * All this machinery making modern music Can still be open-hearted. Not so coldly charted, it's really just a question Of your honesty, yeah, your honesty.
 * The Spirit Of Radio

 * One likes to believe in the freedom of music but glittering prizes and endless compromises shatter the illusion of integrity.
 * The Spirit Of Radio

 * A planet of playthings, We dance on the strings Of powers we cannot perceive "The stars aren't aligned - Or the gods are malign" Blame is better to give than receive.
 * Freewill

 * You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice. If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice. You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill; I will choose a path that's clear- I will choose Free Will.
 * Freewill

 * Each of us A cell of awareness Imperfect and incomplete. Genetic blends With uncertain ends On a fortune hunt that's far too fleet.
 * Freewill

 * We are secrets to each other Each one's life a novel No-one else has read. Even joined in bonds of love, We're linked to one another By such slender threads.
 * Entre Nous

 * We are planets to each other, Drifting in our orbits To a brief eclipse. Each of us a world apart, Alone and yet together, Like two passing ships.
 * Entre Nous

 * All there really is, The two of us, And we both know why we've come along. Nothing to explain, It's a part of us To be found within a song.
 * Different Strings

 * Wheels within wheels in a spiral array, A pattern so grand and complex, Time after time we lose sight of the way, Our causes can't see their effects.
 * Natural Science

 * In their own image Their world is fashioned- No wonder they don't understand
 * Natural Science

 * Science, like nature Must also be tamed With a view towards its preservation Given the same State of integrity It will surely serve us well
 * Natural Science

Moving Pictures (1981)

 * A modern day warrior, Mean, mean stride, Today's Tom Sawyer, Mean, mean pride.
 * Tom Sawyer, written by Neil Peart and Pye Dubois

 * No, his mind is not for rent To any god or government. Always hopeful, yet discontent, He knows changes aren't permanent, But change is.
 * Tom Sawyer

 * And what you say about his company Is what you say about society.
 * Tom Sawyer

 * Living in the limelight The universal dream For those who wish to seem Those who wish to be Must put aside the alienation Get on with the fascination The real relation The underlying theme
 * Limelight

 * All the world's indeed a stage, And we are merely players, Performers and portrayers, Each another's audience Outside the gilded cage.
 * Limelight

 * Everybody got to elevate from the norm.
 * Vital Signs

 * Leave out the fiction Fact is, this friction will only be worn by persistence Leave out conditions Courageous convictions will drag a dream to existence''

 * Digital Man

 * We've got nothing to fear -- but fear itself? Not pain or failure, not fatal tragedy? Not the faulty units in this mad machinery? Not the broken contacts in emotional chemistry?

 * New World Man

Grace Under Pressure (1984)

 * I remember- How we talked and drank Into the misty dawn - I hear the voices We ran by the water On the wet summer lawn - I see the foot prints I remember-
 * Afterimage

 * I clutch the wire fence until my fingers bleed A wound that will not heal -- a heart that cannot feel -- Hoping that the horror will recede Hoping that tomorrow, we'll all be freed
 * Red Sector A

 * Suspicious-looking stranger Flashes you a dangerous grin Shadows across your window Was it only trees in the wind? Every breath a static charge A tongue that tastes like tin Steely-eyed outside to hide the enemy within...
 * The Enemy Within (Part I of Fear)

 * One humanoid escapee an android on the run seeking freedom beneath the lonely desert sun
 * The Body Electric

 * You know how that rabbit feels Going under your speeding wheels Bright images flashing by Like windshields towards a fly Frozen in the fatal climb - But the wheels of time - Just pass you by...
 * Between the Wheels

Power Windows (1985)

 * So much poison in power The principles get left out So much mind on the matter The spirit gets forgotten about
 * Grand Designs

 * The big bang -- took and shook the world Shot down the rising sun the end was begun -- it would hit everyone When the chain reaction was done The big shots -- try to hold it back Fools try to wish it away The hopeful depend on a world without end Whatever the hopeless may say
 * Manhattan Project

 * You can do a lot in a lifetime If you don't burn out too fast You can make the most of the distance First you need endurance First you've got to last
 * Marathon

 * Makenshi: Think nothing of it.
 * Yu: Makenshi...Can you teach me to fight?
 * Yu: You guys protected me all the time and I wuish to fight too-
 * Makenshi: Do not seek strength simply to fight. Your heart will only empower Chaos.
 * Ai: Yu… Have you always felt this way?
 * Yu: Yeah
 * Makenshi: You children are not meant to fight. It is enough that we must take up arms and venture into the battlefield.
 * Makenshi: Even if you were to shoot Yu now, Chaos will not feel your bullet
 * Lisa: Kaze please! Don't shoot him. Yu is fine, he's not feeding Chaos or anything!
 * Lisa: I won't let you hurt him…!
 * Ai: Hey! You're at our house and if you don't behave Mister Kaze, you can sleep outside for all I care!

 * Crux: Kukuryu...
 * Ai & Yu: What?
 * Yu: Maybe we can ask Cid to make Crux able to speak like us.
 * Ai: Knowing Cid, he'll disassemble her for the sake of science!

 * Yu: Monster?
 * Touya: Give back the Mr and Mrs Hayakawa...And the real Ai & Yu Hayakawa!
 * Yu: What?
 * Touya: It was stupid for me to hope with the world is in this condition, and with me still expecting the Hayakawa twins to come home safely.
 * Yu: Touya...
 * Touya: No! You're not the Yu I know! You're one of those monsters from Wopnderland! It's because of you this is all happening! I never want to see your face ever again!

 * Ai: Look Yu, even if we are Children of Chaos, we're still ourselves.
 * Yu: Still ourselves?
 * Ai: Yeah! We're going to kick Chaos's butt, then we'll back back here with Mom and Dad. Maybe even Lisa, Mister and Makenshi will be here too. I mean, they don't reall have a place to go. Maybe the Comodeen can stay here too.
 * Yu: But sis, we don't have enough rooms.
 * Ai: We can have Slivia land on the Garden and they are can live there. Cid seems like he'll get along real well with Mom and Dad. So let's promise we both be back here after it's over.
 * Yu: Ok...
 * Ai: Now come on, Lisa's worried. And so is Makenshi, though he doesn't show it. Mister is half-asleep as usual, but forget about him. Let's go.

 * Ai: Satomi… You need… to go on… a diet…!
 * Touya: Why...after everything I said...why help me?
 * Yu: ....Because we're friends. Even if I'm not human...This IS my home and both it and the people here are dear to me. I only hope to return here someday.
 * Ai: It's just as Yu says, even if you're an idiot, you sure least try to understand this. We're the same two we've always been. And it's not like we know why those weirdos keep calling us the "stray children of Chaos"!
 * Soljashy: Annoying...That last bit of hope is always the hardest to snuff out. Show them despair, Ki-
 * Ai: Oh please, not "King Besserio~…"!
 * Soljashy: Ki-...Tornado Besserio!
 * Kaze: An infinity that surpasses the heavens, Sky Blue! A light that fills the devilish dark, Holy Black! And finally, hope at the end of a trial, Judgment White! Shine! I summon you, ALEXANDER!

Final Fantasy: Unlimited After 2
[A fissure cracks in Dolk's body.] [She was about to use the Kigen arts when...] [Kaze points his Shotgun at Dolk, much to the twins' shock.] [With that, Kaze kills Dolk. The man's body formed into a new Soil bullet. Lisa was crying.]
 * Dolk: I'm sorry, Lisa…This is the way it should be…
 * Cid: It seems Dolk's life is dependant on Soljashy's. There's nothing we can do for him...
 * Lisa: No! I won't let you die! I won't!
 * Dolk: Please...don't...just let me rest...
 * Lisa: Live! Please!
 * Dolk: I can finally...say goodbye. Don't cry… You are a strong person.
 * Lisa: There's nothing strong about me!
 * Ai: Makenshi?!
 * Makenshi: If Black Wind can not kill him...I will do it.
 * Lisa: Please, don't!
 * Dolk: Lisa...Even in death..I will be your strength...
 * Kaze: The Soil of Grief – Chain Gold.
 * Lisa: Kill me, I beg you! Shoot me… using that Soil!
 * Yu: Lisa...
 * Ai: Don't give in to Chaos!
 * Makenshi: Black Wind! The pain she is suffering now is something every living being, every heart experiences. Why can't you understand this!? If she does not overcome this, she wouldn't be able to fight Chaos!

--
 * Kaze: Chaos…
 * Herba: MaGun-baby, you've been a bad boy for killing Dolk-honey. Even bfore I had Soljashy had him, that man was giving Chaos such a feast...
 * Lisa: You... You did this to Dolk…
 * Herba: That's right. Get mad, cry it out. I love that feeling of disorder! You know, Dolk-honey was only thinking of saving you. He didn't care what would became of himself – so noble! It almost bring a tear to my eyes... Just kidding!

[Herba's laughter caused Lisa to finally snap.] -- -- -- [Lisa run after him, but...kaze point his gun at her.]
 * Lisa: Herba... I'll... Never forgive you for this....
 * Makenshi: It is her anger that drives her there...This all began twelve years ago with the Pillar of Darkness, allowing Chaos to come to your world. Lisa is intent on destory the pillar itself, in exchange for her own life.
 * Ai: It can't be… Is Lisa going to die!?
 * Kaze: That which falls into infinite darkness, Silent Black! One that hates the pain of lament, Pain Blue! And finally, to restrain all things, Chain Gold! Resonate! I summon you, ANIMA!
 * Lisa: You save me…?
 * Kaze: It was his Soil… that saved you. Rest.
 * Makenshi: Let's go, Black Wind.
 * Kaze: Right.
 * Ai: Where do you two think you're going?
 * Makenshi: The gate to Wonderland is open, Chaos must still be destoryed.
 * Yu: Then we'll go too!
 * Makenshi: No. You must continue to live your lives here.
 * Kaze: Lisa...Stay alive.
 * Kaze: Don't follow me...

Norbert Elias

Norbert Elias (June 22, 1897 – August 1, 1990) was a German sociologist of Jewish descent, who later became a British citizen.

Quotes

 * I wish you all the pleasurable excitement one can have without hurting others and one's own dignity.
 * Closing statement on a Dutch TV interview.
 * Lessen van Elias, Norbert Elias, portret van een socioloog, VPRO, april 23 1975/ 2005

The Civilizing Process. Sociogenetic and Psychogenetic Investigations (1939)

 * In German: Über den Prozeß der Zivilisation (1939)

 * The psychogenesis of the adult make-up in civilized society cannot, therefore be understood if considered independently of the sociogenesis of our "civilization." ... Individuals, in their short history, pass once more through some of the processes that their society has traversed in its long history.
 * p. xi

 * If the present study has any significance at all, this results not least from its opposition to this mingling of what is and what ought to be, of scientific analysis with ideals.
 * p. 468

 * One of the peculiarities of the traditional human self-image is that people often speak and think of individuals and societies as if these were two phenomena existing separately—of which, moreover, one is often considered "real" and the other "unreal"—instead of two different aspects of the same human being.
 * p. 469

 * A heightened control of the affects, developed in society and learned by the individual, and above all a heightened degree of autonomous affect control, was needed in order for the world-picture centred on the earth and the people living on it to be overcome by one which, like the heliocentric world-picture, agreed better with the observable facts but was at first far less satisfying emotionally; for it removed human beings from their position at the centre of the universe and placed them on one of many planets circling about the centre.
 * p. 477

 * But at that particular stage in the development of these more object-related than self-related conceptual instruments for exploring extra-human nature, it was apparently not possible to include in the investigation, and to reflect upon, this civilizational shift itself, the move towards stronger and more "internalised" self-control that was taking place within people themselves. What was happening to human beings as they increased their understanding of nature remained at first inaccessible to scientific insight. It is not a little characteristic of this stage of self-consciousness that the classical theories of knowledge representing it are concerned far more with the problems of the object of knowledge than with the subject of knowledge, with object-perception than with self-perception.
 * p. 477

 * The development of the idea that the earth circles round the sun in a purely mechanical way in accordance with natural laws—that is, in a way not in the least determined by any purpose relating to mankind, and therefore no longer possessing any great emotional significance for people—presupposed and demanded at the same time a development in human beings themselves towards increased emotional control, a greater restraint of their spontaneous feeling that everything they experience and everything that concerns them takes its stamp from them, is the expression of an intention, a destiny, a purpose relating to themselves. Now, in the age that we call "modern", people have reached a stage of self-detachment that enables them to conceive of natural processes as an autonomous sphere operating in a purely mechanical or causal way without intention or purpose or destiny, and having a meaning or purpose for themselves only if they are in a position, through objective knowledge, to control it and thereby to give it a meaning and a purpose.
 * p. 477

Sarah McLachlan

Sarah Ann McLachlan, OC, OBC (born January 28, 1968) is a Canadian musician, singer and songwriter. She is widely recognized as one of the founders of Lilith Fair, a tour that showcased female musicians in the late 1990s.

Song lyrics

 * All songs written by Sarah McLachlan, unless otherwise noted.

Touch (1988)

 * Crouching down inside a deep ravine, Those angry cries pass quickly by, he can't be seen. So many ways spent hiding in so many undone plans; Forgetting what it's like to fight when no one understands.
 * Out of the Shadows
 * You're always waiting on the tide, It's time you decide. I've walked down long roads that seem to have no end at all. You never wanted time to end, To let my life offend.
 * Steaming
 * In the desert of my dreams I saw you there; And I'm walking towards the water steaming body cold and bare. But your words cut loose the fire and you left my soul to bleed. And the pain that's in your truth's deceiving me, has got me scared. Oh why?
 * Vox

Solace (1992)

 * Open the doors that lead on in to Eden Don't want no cheap disguise. I follow the signs marked back to the beginning, No more compromise.
 * Into the Fire, written by Sarah McLachlan and Pierre Marchand
 * I knew you wanted to tell me; In your voice there was something wrong. But if you would turn your face away from me, You cannot tell me you're so strong. Just let me ask of you one small thing. As we have shared so many tears, With fervor our dreams we planned a whole life long Now are scattered on the wind...
 * The Path of Thorns

Fumbling Towards Ecstasy (1993)

Listen as the wind blows from across the great divide, Voices trapped in yearning, memories trapped in time. The night is my companion, and solitude my guide. Would I spend forever here and not be satisfied?

And I would be the one To hold you down, Kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away. And after, I'd wipe away the tears, Just close your eyes dear.

 * Possession
 * Don't tell me I haven't been good to you. Don't tell me I have never been there for you. Don't tell me why Nothing is good enough.
 * Good Enough

The Brothers McMullen soundtrack (1995)

 * I will remember you; Will you remember me? Don't let your life pass you by; Weep not for the memories.
 * I Will Remember You, written by Sarah McLachlan, Séamus Egan and Dave Merenda
 * I'm so tired but I can't sleep, Standin' on the edge of something much too deep. It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word; We are screaming inside, but we can't be heard.
 * I Will Remember You
 * I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to lose, Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose. Once there was a darkness, deep and endless night; You gave me everything you had, oh you gave me light.
 * I Will Remember You

Surfacing (1997)

 * You come out at night; That's when the energy comes. And the dark side's light, And the vampires roam. You strut your rasta wear And your suicide poem And a cross from a faith That died before Jesus came. You're building a mystery.
 * Building a Mystery, written by Sarah McLachlan and Pierre Marchand

It doesn't mean much; It doesn't mean anything at all. The life I've left behind me Is a cold room. I've crossed the last line From where I can't return. Where every step I took in faith Betrayed me And led me from my home.

And sweet sweet surrender Is all that I have to give.

 * Sweet Surrender

Adia I do believe I failed you. Adia I know I let you down. Don't you know I tried so hard To love you in my way. It's easy let it go...

Adia I'm empty since you left me. Trying to find a way to carry on. I search myself and everyone To see where we went wrong.

 * Adia
 * What ravages of spirit conjured This temptuous rage; Created you a monster, Broken by the rule of love.
 * Do What You Have to Do
 * Every moment marked With apparitions of your soul. I'm ever swiftly moving Trying to escape this desire.
 * Do What You Have to Do

Spend all your time waiting For that second chance, For a break that would make it OK. There's always some reason To feel not good enough; And it's hard at the end of the day.

I need some distraction, Oh, beautiful release. Memory seeps through my veins. Let me be empty, Oh weightless and maybe I'll find some peace tonight.

 * Angel
 * In the arms of the angel, Fly away from here. From this dark cold hotel room, And the endlessness you feel. You are pulled from the wreckage Of your silent reverie. You're in the arms of the angel; May you find some comfort here.
 * Angel

Afterglow (2003)

Heaven bent to take my hand And lead me through the fire. Be the long awaited answer To a long and painful fight.

Truth be told I've tried my best, But somewhere along the way I got caught up in all there was to offer, And the cost was so much more than I could bear.

 * Fallen
 * Hearts are worn in these dark ages; You're not alone in this story's pages. Night has fallen amongst the living and the dying, And I try to hold it in, yeah I try to hold it in.
 * World on Fire, written by Sarah McLachlan and Pierre Marchand
 * Love has made me a fool; It set me on fire and watched as I floundered, Unable to speak Except to cry out and wait for your answer. But you come around in your time, Speaking of fabulous places. Create an oasis; Dries up as soon as you're gone. You leave me here burning In this desert without you.
 * Stupid
 * I will be the answer At the end of the line. I will be there for you, Why take the time? In the burning of uncertainty, I will be your solid ground. I will hold the balance If you can't look down.
 * Answer

Closer: The Best of Sarah McLachlan (2008)

Oh, baby don't give up on us. I know your heart is full of doubt, You don't need to be without These loving arms.

I'll hold you through your darkest hour I'll be using all my power, So I can reach you. Oh my love, don't give up on us.

 * Don't Give Up on Us
 * So what are we saying? Our Eden's a failure. A made-up story to fit the picture-perfect world. The one with "I do"s and "I love you." And "we are made for each other." Is forever over now?
 * U Want Me 2, written by Sarah McLachlan and Pierre Marchand

Laws of Illusion (2010)

Might have been the moonlight, Caught up in the sparkle in your eyes. So wicked and I know I should go slow but it's not in me to wait.

Cause I'm alive and I'm on fire. Shot like a starburst into the sky. And the fury of desire it burns so bright electrifies You light me up, you take me higher.

 * Loving You Is Easy

I've been down a long road; I'd become a stranger to myself. Digging in my heels and hoping time might be kinder if I wait it out.

But nothing came from wanting. And I became so small and insecure. Didn't know the cost of all I'd lost till I found it fresh and new again.

 * Loving You Is Easy

 * Little Mike: Infantino didn't pay.
 * Tony "Two-Toes: What do you mean, he didn't pay? [Takes Mike's food from him] What did he say??
 * Johnny C: [Standing in the shadows with Kruger] He said, "Tell that fat fuck Tony 'Two-Toes' that I ain't gonna pay him another dime."
 * Tony "Two-Toes": I know that voice, but it can't be him...unless he is a ghost.
 * Johnny C: [Steps into the light] Boo.
 * Sal: Johnny C? I thought you got whacked!
 * Johnny C: Must've been some other guy.
 * Tony "Two-Toes": Yeah? Some other guy rat out Vincenzo Canelli too?
