This is totally off-topic, but thank you for the Witches Taint thing in the pop culture forum. I hadn't laughed so hard in weeks. :hi:

3. "If a man dwells on the past, |
|
then he robs the present. But if a man ignores the past, he may rob the future. The seeds of our destiny are nurtured by the roots of our past." - Master Po (proving that the future of our future as a nation may very well depend upon wider dissemination of the Witches Taint link.)

8. I was really trying to be serious. |

I just got done watching Caine teach the men in a slave labor camp how to survive getting caved in the mine with almost no oxygen.
This series is not a comedy. And this episode shows why.
The one before it on the DVD was great too, "A Praying Mantis Kills":
"'I was cleansing my mind of impurities. Disturbances.' - Caine '...how's that work?' 'It lets me see the nature of things as they really are.' - Caine 'Is that what keeps you from getting mad?' 'It is how I may encounter life's many faces with some sense of peace.'" - Caine, on meditating
"I do not do it. It is not done. . . It is only experienced. It happens." - Caine, on hitting a target without looking

12. I wouldn't mind that. |

"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful." -- Gautama Siddharta (not Caine or Master Po, but still good.)
