“REMEMBER YOUR GREATNESS
Before you were born,
And were still too tiny for
The human eye to see,
You won the race for life
From among 250 million competitors.
And yet,
How fast you have forgotten
Your strength,
When your very existence
Is proof of your greatness.
You were born a winner,
A warrior,
One who defied the odds
By surviving the most gruesome
Battle of them all.
And now that you are a giant,
Why do you even doubt victory
Against smaller numbers,
And wider margins?
The only walls that exist,
Are those you have placed in your mind.
And whatever obstacles you conceive,
Exist only because you have forgotten
What you have already
Achieved.

“I want to build a billion tiny factories, models of each other, which are manufacturing simultaneouslyâ€� The principles of physics, as far as I can see, do not speak against the possibility of maneuvering things atom by atom. It is not an attempt to violate any laws; it is something, in principle, that can be done; but in practice, it has not been done because we are too big.”

“Will father be there?" she asked.
John turned to her in astonishment.
Your father is dead," he replied somberly. "Why should he go to Hades? You have it confused with another place that was abolished long ago."
After supper they folded up the table-cloth and spread their blankets for the night.
What a dream it was," Kismine sighed, gazing up at the stars. "How strange it seems to be here with one dress and a penniless fianc_!
Under the stars," she repeated. "I never noticed the stars before. I always thought of them as great big diamonds that belonged to some one. Now they frighten me. They make me feel that it was all a dream, all my youth."
It was a dream," said John quietly. "Everybody's youth is a dream, a form of chemical madness."
How pleasant then to be insane!"
So I'm told," said John gloomily. "I don't know any longer. At any rate, let us love for a while, for a year or so, you and me. That's a form of divine drunkenness that we can all try. There are only diamonds in the whole world, diamonds and perhaps the shabby gift of disillusion. Well, I have that last and I will make the usual nothing of it." He shivered. "Turn up your coat collar, little girl, the night's full of chill and you'll get pneumonia. His was a great sin who first invented consciousness. Let us lose it for a few hours."
So wrapping himself in his blanket he fell off to sleep.”

“At the point where the big is so big that it almost touches the “farthestâ€� possible “end,â€� it becomes static. The state of absolute speed is the state of no motion, the static state. At the absolute speed, the starting point is the ending or destination point. Appearance and disappearance happen at the “pointâ€� of absolute speed. The creation of energy and matter (the world) and the disappearance of energy and matter happen at the point of absolute speed through zero. The conditional biggest has nowhere to move, nothing to revolve around. The biggest must be near the point of Zero. It has nowhere to go except into the smaller. The life of the big is the life of the small. At the “pointâ€� of Zero, distances disappear because everything disappears. Manifestation of the Universal Mind, in its physical form, returns to itself in its primordial, immaterial form beyond space and time.”

“Real Void is in the space yet unaffected by the made “space.â€� Although it is nothingness, the void provides volume to the Being to create space. Whatever we see and experience as space is a real void, regardless of how strange or absurd it sounds. As we experience it, the appearance of space envelopes void with its information and laws, offering information about the curvature of itself (the Being), not the void, yet the real void is always there and is “indestructible,â€� unchangeable, unaffected, and uncurved.”

“When the small is so small that it almost touches the farthest possible end of “infinity,â€� it becomes uncatchable. It is the point that we freely choose to call the “pointâ€� of “absolute speedâ€� when the smallest, or near the smallest, when looked at, appears to be a particle and, when not looked at, seems to be a wave. The smallest must be the trembling of “matterâ€� near the point of zero. It has nowhere to go except into the bigger. The life of the small is the life of the big.”
