Quote of the Day [5.28.08]

“If, for some reason, we make some big mistake and IBM wins, my personal feeling is that we are going to enter a computer Dark Ages for about twenty years.”

Steve Jobs

Quote of the Day [5.27.08]

“I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.”

Roy Batty, Blade Runner

Quote of the Day [5.23.08]

And Thingol answered: ‘What of your quest, and of your vow?’
But Beren said: ‘It is fulfilled. Even now a Silmaril is in my hand.’
Then Thingol said: ‘Show it to me!’
And Beren put forth his empty left hand, slowly opening its fingers; but it was empty. Then he held up his right arm; and from that hour he named himself Camlost, the Empty-handed.

The Tale of Beren and Luthien, The Silmarillion, J.R.R. Tolkien

Quote of the Day [5.19.08]

渇いた心で駆け抜ける
ごめんね何もできなくて
痛みを分かち合うことさえ
あなたは許してくれない

無垢に生きるために振り向かず
背中向けて 去ってしまう
on the lonely rail

私ついていくよ
どんな辛い世界の闇の中でさえ
きっとあなたは輝いて
超える未来の果て
弱さ故に魂こわされぬように
my way 重なるよ
いまふたりに God bless…

1st verse of “God Knows…” from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
