Zitat des Tages über Shalt:
If we are to keep our democracy, there must be one commandment: 'Thou shalt not ration justice.'
Thou shalt free thyself from convention, from everyday morality.
I started growing up in a hurry and taking a lot of the philosophy I'd heard from church as a kid a lot more seriously - especially the Ten Commandments - and wondering how 'Thou shalt not kill' could be so absolutely ignored. It took me until I was in my 40s to write what I was thinking as a young soldier.
The stars shall fade away, the sun himself Grow dim with age, and nature sink in years, But thou shalt flourish in immortal youth, Unhurt amidst the wars of elements, The wrecks of matter, and the crush of worlds.
Is there not an art, a music, and a stream of words that shalt be life, the acknowledged voice of life?
Teach thy tongue to say 'I do not know', and thou shalt progress.
Thou shalt not give birth reluctantly.
The risk of pollution exists for the infosphere as it does for the atmosphere. Freedom of the infosphere should thus become a law, and the Bible needs to have an 11th commandment: Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's data.
Buy what thou hast no need of and ere long thou shalt sell thy necessities.
I have ten commandments. The first nine are, thou shalt not bore. The tenth is, thou shalt have right of final cut.
Thou shalt not ration justice.
We don't need lists of rights and wrongs, tables of do's and don'ts: we need books, time, and silence. Thou shalt not is soon forgotten, but Once upon a time lasts forever.
Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, for there are plenty of others.
And the first commandment of feminism is: I am woman; thou shalt not tolerate strange gods who assert that women have capabilities or often choose roles that are different from men's.
If we are to keep democracy, there must be a commandment: Thou shalt not ration justice.
'Thou shalt not get found out' is not one of God's commandments; and no man can be saved by trying to keep it.
