A quotation from Bill Watterson

   CALVIN: I’m at peace with the world. I’m completely serene.
   HOBBES: Why is that?
   CALVIN: I’ve discoved my purpose in life. I know why I was put here and why everything exists.
   HOBBES: Oh, really?
   CALVIN: Yes. I am here so everybody can do what I want.
   HOBBES: It’s nice to have that cleared up.
   CALVIN: Once everyone accepts it, they’ll be serene, too.

A quotation from Mignon McLaughlin

No matter how brilliantly an idea is stated, we will not really be moved unless we have half-thought of it ourselves.

The Neurotic’s Notebook, ch. 7 (1963)

@tzimmer_history the beauty of Twitter, is that it allowed all of us to communicate, as one mind. But the destruction of Twitter by #ManChildElon will not destroy the human spirit. We will find a way to communicate. It just won’t be at the whim of a #petulant #SelfAbsorbed #arrogant creature such as #Elon.
