Newsreel Pseudo Intel: The Middle East Approaching The New 20s Identification Number: 456 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Miniaturk_009.jpg Preview: With regard to the venerable "hindsight" theme, it should be reminded what Condoleeza Rice once said, while serving as head of the Foreign Office: that military intervention was going to become a constant fixture of the geopolitical landscape in the coming decades. As a matter of fact, with the "hindsight" of Libya too, Rice's remark finds bipartisan corroboration - as if to signify ...

Traduciamo dunque: «Navigare è indispensabile, vivere no»? Merita specificare che il verbo navigare ha mantenuto un afflato universalistico incontaminato: ancora oggi lo si impiega per dire che si naviga il web, e anche lo spazio cosmico è un terreno (meglio: una thalassa) percepito come navigabile - infatti: nave spaziale, ed in Inglese spaceship. Tutta la forza e la potenza della frase stanno dunque nel conoscere o riconoscere questo patrimonio semantico così ampio custodito addentro al verbo navigare...

Che, come ogni diligente Trattato Del Lupo Della Steppa, voi lo reperiate redatto nella polverosa soffitta balzachiana notoriamente frequentata da Saggi Invisibili e Maestri Segreti in conciliabolo con il Re del Mondo, vi autorizza a qualsivoglia tipo di reattività voi preferiate: tranne che a sorpresa e circospezione. Per cui: en garde!|«Allora Giobbe rispose al Signore e disse: Comprendo che puoi tutto e che nessuna cosa è impossibile per te. (...) Ho esposto dunque senza discernimento cose troppo superiori a me, che io non comprendo. (...) Io ti conoscevo per sentito dire, ma adesso i miei occhi ti vedono. Perciò io mi ricredo, e ne provo pentimento sopra polvere e ...

(...) Nell' angoscia l'ente nella sua totalità vacilla (...) Il Niente nientifica ininterrottamente (...) Fa dell' uomo il luogotenente del niente (...) Nel domandare del niente accade un tale andare oltre l'ente in quanto ente nella sua totalità. Così la domanda si dimostra una domanda metafisica. (...) Ogni domanda metafisica abbraccia sempre la totalità della metafisica. Inoltre, in ogni domanda metafisica l'esserci che domanda è sempre coinvolto nella domanda. (...) Solo perchè il niente è manifesto nel fondo dell' esserci, può sopraffarci il senso della completa estraneità dell' ente, e solo se questa estraneità ci angustia, l'ente ridesta e attira su di sè lo stupore. (...) L' andare oltre l'ente accade nell' essenza dell' esserci. Ma questo andare oltre è la metafisica stessa. Ciò implica che la metafisica faccia parte della natura dell' uomo. (...) La m...

However, as said this function will not provide aggregated data (such as a date difference expressed {only} in days or hours or minutes or seconds), so for such data you may still use the just mentioned and linked version. Yet, this function returns {timestamps} too, which may be suitable to be exploited for the just above mentioned purpose.|function disaggregatedTime($small='', $big='', $timeZ...

Citazioni Preferite E Commento Identification Number: 451 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Miniaturk_009.jpg Preview: [1.] La stessa forma assunta dalla maggior parte dei Tantra, e cioè quella di un dialogo fra Shiva e la dea, che interroga il dio come un discepolo farebbe con il suo maestro, dimostra la centralità della figura del guru in ambito tantrico. ^^Che questa interpretazione possa essere prevalsa e trovare il suo fondamento negli indirizzi e nella ortoprassi dell' Hinduismo scholastico, è possibile: e la mia inesistente esperienza sul terreno Indiano non mi permette di escluderlo nè punto nè poco. Tuttavia, è anche noto come sia fatale avvedersi prima o poi «che lo Zen e i seguaci dello Zen erano due cose diverse» - e anzi io direi che non è possibile sostenere che ci si sarebbe davvero avvicinati almeno un poco allo Zen, se non si è fatta contestualmente questa scoperta: ovvero quella della incommensurabilità del dio rispetto al suo stesso tem... Author: Alberto Italiano Visitors: 2,415 Tagged by its author as: Books List topics of this author only (446) : click hereThis author also has: a Blog Oscar Wilde: The Soul Of Man (Under Socialism): Part 2 Identification Number: 450 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Miniaturk_009.jpg Preview: Within the last few years two other adjectives, it may be mentioned, have been added to the very limited vocabulary of art- abuse that is at the disposal of the public. One is the word 'unhealthy,' the other is the word 'exotic.' The latter merely expresses the rage of the momentary mushroom against the immortal, entrancing, and exquisitely lovely orchid. It is a tribute, but a tribute of no importance. The word 'unhealthy,' however, admits of analysis. It is a rather interesting word. In fact, it is so interesting that the people who use it do not know what it means. What does it mean? What is a healthy, or an unhealthy work of art? All terms that one applies to a work of art, provided that one applies them rationally, have reference to either its style or its subject, or to both together. From the point of view of style, a healthy work of art is one whose style recognises the beauty of the material it employs, be that material one of words or of bronze, of colour or of ivory, and ...

In fact, scarcely anyone at all escapes. Now and then, in the course of the century, a great man of science, like Darwin; a great poet, like Keats; a fine critical spirit, like M. Renan; a supreme artist, like Flaubert, has been able to isolate himself, to keep himself out of reach of the clamorous claims of others, to stand 'under the shelter of the wall,' as Plato puts it, and so to realise the perfection of what was in him, to his own incomparable gain, and to the incomparable and lasting gain of the whole world. These, however, are exceptions. The majority of people spoil their lives by an unhealthy and exaggerated altruism-- are forced, indeed, so to spoil them. They find themselves surrounded by hideous pove...

Of these four categories, the sublime and the beautiful only belong properly to art. The agreeable is not worthy of art, and the good is at least not its end; for the aim of art is to please, and the good, whether we consider it in theory or in practice, neither can nor ought to serve as a means of satisfying the wants of sensuousness. The agreeable only satisfies the senses, and is distinguished thereby from the good, which only pleases the reason. The agreeable only pleases by its matter, for it is only matter that can affect the senses, ...
