“Here is the Key of Success, and its Name is the Skill to make right Use of Circumstance. This, then is the Virtue of the Mind, to be the Wazir of the Will, a true Counsellor, through Intelligence of the Universe. But o, my Son, do thou lay this Word beneath thine Heart, that the Mind hath no Will, nor Right thereto, so the Usurpation bringeth forth a fatal Conflict in thyself. For the Mind is sensitive, unstable as Air, and may be led foolishly in leash by a stronger Mind that worketh as the cunning Tool of a Will. Therefore thy Safety and Defence is to hold thy Mind to his right Function, a faithful Minister to thine own True Will, but Election of Nature.” https://library.hrmtc.com/2026/02/12/here-is-the-key-of-success-and-its-name-is-the-skill-to-make-right-use-of-circumstance-this-then-is-the-virtue-of-the-mind-to-be-the-wazir-of-the-will-a-true-counsellor-through-intelligence-of/ #air #aleisterCrowley #book #book111 #bringethForth #circumstance #cunningTool #Defence #election #faithfulMinisterToThineOwn #fatalConflict #heart #hold #inLeash #inThyself #intelligence #key #ledFoolishly #liberAleph #liberCxi #LiberאVelCXI #mind #name #nature #noWill #ofAWill #quote #right #rightFunction #rightUse #safety #sensitive #skill #strongerMind #success #TheBookOfWisdomOrFolly #theMind #thyMind #trueCounsellor #trueWill #universe #unstable #usurpation #virtue #wazir #will #Word #worketh

WIST Quotations Has Moved!Aug 29, 2025

A quotation from Samuel Johnson

The distance is commonly very great between actual performances and speculative possibility. It is natural to suppose, that as much as has been done to-day may be done to-morrow; but on the morrow some difficulty emerges, or some external impediment obstructs. Indolence, interruption, business, and pleasure, all take their turns of retardation; and every long work is lengthened by a thousand causes that can, and ten thousand that cannot, be recounted. Perhaps no extensive and multifarious performance was ever effected within the term originally fixed in the undertaker’s mind. He that runs against Time, has an antagonist not subject to casualties.

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784) English writer, lexicographer, critic
Lives of the Most Eminent English Poets, “Pope” (1781)

I came across a guitar student's email; unread incoming, it was. I thought of her recently, or generally whenever.

Wonder what "CPT" meant? Probably Captain. CPT Kris. It's coming back to me now! Or Star Trek (it was 20 yrs ago or higher)

Kris [edit Kristen W...]

She was a black-Jewish, guitar-playin', star-gazin', comi-con attending [i'd bet money on that] type of chick!

She said "Oy!"
i said, "WTF is that?"

True Romance
#Circumstance

I am 99.9 percent confident that I was taught through popular culture that I can't be attracted to the black astronaut woman. The reasoning being that
"why aren't you attracted to the /other/ black women?"**

I dunno.

But there's something about the black #NASA astronauts on #AmazonPrime (aka freevee?). channel is #Nasa+ (as in ..plus at the end. i dunno. Freevee was better.

#BlackAstronauts

That's also because you can't be a successful black man and date a white woman.

These things are the truths, no?
Is this not how we are supposed to behave?

It's like a Peter-Paul Almond-Joy.
Sometimes you feel like a nut. Sometimes you don't.

That is: Do whatever you wan because you're allowed to, and encouraged to do so. Until you're specifically discouraged to do so, because ... you know.

Circumstances

**EDIT
No: B/C successful black men and women "must" propagate

A quotation from Emerson

Shallow men believe in luck, believe in circumstances — it was somebody’s name, or he happened to be there at the time, or it was so then, and another day would have been otherwise. Strong men believe in cause and effect.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) American essayist, lecturer, poet
Essay (1860), “Worship,” The Conduct of Life, ch. 6
