Re: Cared Quotes - I

Very nice quotes, thank you.

This reminds me what happened to me about quoting when I was at school.

My French teacher used to ask us to write always some quotes which could be related to the topic of homework. My problem was (still is) that I used to be interested solely in math and applied science more than anything else (I seldom read books offered by famous writers). Once, I wrote a sentence very clearly and carefully to reflect my idea about the topic of interest. I followed it with ‘Kerim said’
On the next day, my grade was ‘a Big Zero’ followed with ‘Your teacher, Joseph, said’

Every living thing has no choice but to execute its pre-programmed instructions embedded in it (known as instincts).
But only a human may have the freedom and ability to oppose his natural robotic nature.
But, by opposing it, such a human becomes no more of this world.
