According to Einstein, we are all insane
« on: September 21, 2007, 04:23:12 AM »
I stumbled upon this quote by Albert Einstein the other day and it made me laugh.
"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."

"Insanity has the power to release the Genius existing iside us all."


I can see how they would define it like that but I've never really liked that definition.  Doing the same thing over and over may be one result of being insane but there are many other factors...

I feel insanity is actually when someone looses control over their own thoughts.  When you can't even control what you're trying to THINK then you know you're losing your mind.   


great times!   :P

We all face our daemons when we are riding. Sometimes I lose touch when I am riding alone at night on a empty lot. Sometimes I need to ride downtown or in a park to feel alive. When you are riding you are making a sacrafice and entering into the desert alone. No one can teach you, no one can do it for you. At any time you can give up, but there is nothing else to compare. Desire, intent, belief and purpose -- riding is a way to all of that.     

Just think if you weren't riding.

my vision

insanity : doing a thing that made no positive results.
say, it's more to destructive than progressive

just like... no such a real victory without a sacrifice, cause you got to climb a mountain to get a better view and air.

oh, i forgot.
thought einstein wasn't recognized himself when he used to make that quote.
y'all know that he used to regret the Bomb Formula, E=mc2
he just haven't declared that he also regret another words of his quote

he must have this style of hair cut  :ph34r: cause he blewed up
