Daily Aesthetics Dump: Embracing Energy, Beauty, Strength, and Greatness

@Norwegian-Mugabe said in Daily Aesthetics Dump: Embracing Energy, Beauty, Strength, and Greatness:
Perhaps man is the creature who, once struck down, defines himself by his ability to rise.
Run, run, Orlando: carve on every tree
The fair, the chaste, and unexpressive she.
I thank God that I was born Greek and not barbarian, free and not slave, male and not female, but above all that I was born in the age of Socrates.
How is this enlightened? You were born of woman after all

Long periods of peace and quiet favor certain optical illusions. Among them is the assumption that the invulnerability of the home is founded upon the constitution and safeguarded by it. In reality, it rests upon the father of the family who, accompanied by his sons, appears with the ax on the threshold of his dwelling.
Nobody can give you wiser advice than yourself: if you heed yourself, you'll never go wrong.
Suffering becomes beautiful when anyone bears great calamities with cheerfulness, not through insensibility but through greatness of mind.
-
One general law, leading to the advancement of all organic beings, namely, multiply, vary, let the strongest live and the weakest die.
I object to pretensions of natural equality.
What nature does blindly, slowly and ruthlessly, man may do providently, quickly, and kindly. As it lies within his power, so it becomes his duty to work in that direction.
-
In which direction we have hitherto no certain evidence that any one has gone.
Your Highnesses have an Other World here, by which our holy faith can be so greatly advanced and from which such great wealth can be drawn.
-
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth.
God became man so that we might become God. -
I am in love with life.
If you only realized how good things are.
-
Quality women desserves it all.
Everything in woman is a riddle, and everything in woman hath one solution — it is called pregnancy.
-
The One remains, the many change and pass;
Heaven’s light forever shines, Earth’s shadows fly;
Life, like a dome of many-coloured glass,
Stains the white radiance of Eternity,
Until Death tramples it to fragments.—Die,
If thou wouldst be with that which thou dost seek!
Follow where all is fled!—Rome’s azure sky,
Flowers, ruins, statues, music, words are weak
The glory they transfuse with fitting truth to speak.
The secret to happiness is freedom... And the secret to freedom is courage.

Famed US heavyweight Gene Tunney was unique, therefore, in that here was fighter who not only possessed in abundance the ring intelligence outlined above, he was also a man of letters who was known to carry in his gym bag along with his gloves and wraps the works of Shakespeare, George Bernard Shaw, F Scott Fitzgerald and other literary giants.
We have to create culture, don't watch TV, don't read magazines, don't even listen to NPR. Create your own roadshow. The nexus of space and time where you are now is the most immediate sector of your universe, and if you're worrying about Michael Jackson or Bill Clinton or somebody else, then you are disempowered, you're giving it all away to icons, icons which are maintained by an electronic media so that you want to dress like X or have lips like Y. This is shit-brained, this kind of thinking. That is all cultural diversion, and what is real is you and your friends and your associations, your highs, your orgasms, your hopes, your plans, your fears. And we are told 'no', we're unimportant, we're peripheral. 'Get a degree, get a job, get a this, get a that.' And then you're a player, you don't want to even play in that game. You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that's being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

Death is better, a milder fate than tyranny. -

@LetTheRedeemed The OP is mentally ill and spends a majority of their limited time on this earth reposting "aesthetic" images on a niche diet forum. Not very high metabolism/healthy.
-
@otbrother this place is actually an extension of twitter
-
@LetTheRedeemed its a shame really, the pursuit of health being derailed by schizophrenics like the OP. Not much better than the old raypeatforum.com takeover from Charlie (poor health both physical and mental) along with his band of strange unhinged "Christians" and their many strange theories, none of which focus on the discussion of optimizing our diet/health/lifestyle.
-
@otbrother I know but I’m a real live and let live kinda guy so if they aren’t sayin bitch nigger-jew on repeat hoping to woo over some hapless visitor I’ll take it lol. I probably don’t have too many days on the foruhm

"There is no longer Jew or Greek; there is no longer slave or free; there is no longer male and female, for all of you are one in Christ Jesus." Galatian 3:28
"avoid stupid controversies, genealogies, dissensions, and quarrels about the law, for they are unprofitable and worthless." Titus 3:9
"... not to occupy themselves with myths and endless genealogies that promote speculations rather than the divine training that is known by faith. But the aim of such instruction is love that comes from a pure heart, a good conscience, and sincere faith. Some people have deviated from these and turned to meaningless talk, desiring to be teachers of the law without understanding either what they are saying or the things about which they make assertions." 1 Timothy 1:4
"whoever hates a brother or sister is in the darkness, walks in the darkness, and does not know the way to go, because the darkness has brought on blindness." 1 John 2:11
"I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:34-35
