The ancient chinese philosopher was known for his insightful thoughts particularly in his Analects of Confucius. But there is one quote that confuses me, and that is:
"Man who walks side ways through airport door, is going to Bangkok"
I don't get it. Do you?

Atom, He DID say that I read it on the internet. Therefore it must be true!
Anyone else got a problem with that?
Misinformed?!? I'm much more "formed" than you Mr. Man!

It's too late now. I am mad!
Infact, I'm lost for words.
What do you think Confucius would say?

I don't believe you have the great life you claim to have. First of all, if you was ever a Christian then you could never be an atheist. How could you believe then not? So you never was one of them. Now which one is it? You know, the Christians you are judging have sit up many nights on this site, and thousands of others, day in and day out. And they was all compassionate, and had kind words of love. Until they couldn't take the ignorant accusation's and sens less questions they were dealt with, so yes I can see where you get that they are hypocritical. They are telling people what the bible says. Spreading the word of God, like it says to do. They are not saying that they live that way. Hell I know I sure in the **** don't. I do many, many, many different things. Partied like you would not believe. And I'm talking about good ol' USA get anything anytime you want, kind of Country. You know what I mean? Guess Not. And you will never hear me recite Bible verses. Or even tell you who wrote what, or where to look to find anything in it. I have hardly ever even picked it up and read. But I do know God and he is very real, dear. I don't go to church now, one of the reasons is what your talking about, I can see the two faced, talking behind you back, kind of people and actions in the church. I feel out of place there. However, I will not go against Jesus. Jesus Christ is my God. I talk to him all of the time. He even answers me back when it is time. So if you was a Christian, then WTF? You Are the only thing keeping you from him. You don't like the way "Christians" make you feel? Then tell it to Jesus, don't let satan keep convincing you that you it is all over. Especially since it has only begun.

Confucius DID NOT SAY THAT.
Confucius lived a very very long time ago. Much much earlier than the first flight at Kitty Hawk. Funny, but misinformed.

I wonder if he came up with that before or after he lost his virginity...
Confucius say:
Man who makes love on ground,
has peace (piece) on earth.

He said that those who can teach the new whilst keeping the old alive are worthy of being teachers ;-)
