«We've got a living dinosaur here. All the modern games of football and rugby must have descended from this game - and others like it.»

«Second-guessing is as bad for the criminal justice system as it is for football games. I have a real problem with having a case that was investigated 31 years ago and found to be an accident and then reinvestigated 30-plus years later when everything is destroyed and it's found to be a murder.»

«It's unfair to make somebody defend himself 31 years later, when many of the people who could assist you are deceased, most of the evidence that was collected has been destroyed and most of the memories have faded.»

«When you're working at the forefront of creative design, you have to borrow from history. The trick is to draw from a past era and reinterpret it.»

«We've seen the last of those white traverse curtain rods.»

«I don't think anyone in their right mind could do something like this, especially for the reason this girl did. It was a little ridiculous. It doesn't make sense. That worried me the most, if someone like that was left to be on the streets because I really believe that girl would hurt someone again if she wasn't locked up.»

«Searches for intelligent design of the Universe through the Plotinan Criterion would be futile I would think, because the creation is an indirect ?radiation? or product of ?The One?. Physical cosmology in a similar conundrum would discover many paradoxical limits on researches that would parallel scriptural association instead of traces of a prime mover. The Plontinian criterion exists adequately regardless of a steady state or linear time flow from an inflaton or membrane criterion source theory.»

«Plotinus was a first rate synthetic philosopher that combined and illustrated the best aspects of prior philosophers and added his own mystic insights. His concepts are consonant with about 70% of Christian divine mechanics interestingly. The idea He had about a river of creation flowing eternally from 'The One' that is 'translated from a realm of forms or intellect into material composition reminds me quite a lot of Jesus' discussion about 'the water of life' from which she would never thirst, as Jesus was God for-himself. It is disappointing that so many have simply been formed within a non-philosophical, purely materialist intellectual criterion that is implicitly biased.»

«Plotinus, 'The One' and the Source of MatterThe ideas that Plotinus developed as a neoplatonist writing about seven hundred years after Plato acknowledged the prior ancient philosophical work by pre-Socratic philosophers on elucidating the concept of ?The One? unified being that creates everything else that exists through another aspect of himself.»

«Formal logic has more techniques than syllogisms of course, and almost any proposition can be tested for validity or at least inconclusiveness. An essential aspect of logic is that even though the premises may add up to the entire conclusion, the conclusion and or premises may for themselves be inherently unable to prove whatever point one is making. Logic then has an implicit limit of being true just relative to it?s own structure or mode.»
