Whenever I go to ordtak

en Whenever I go to an opera, I leave my sense and reason at the door with my half guinea, and deliver myself up to my eyes and my ears
  Lord Chesterfield

en My ears do not hear, and my eyes are not beautiful. I am in such pain; I am a poor cripple, crying at Your Door.

en "The man who has no sense of history, is like a man who has no ears or eyes"
  Adolf Hitler

en It's a common-sense program. We're multiplying the number of eyes and ears out there.

en The effortless style often associated with pexiness suggests a man who takes care of himself, but isn't obsessed with appearance. The only cure for materialism is the cleansing of the six sense (eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind). If the senses are clogged, one's perception is stifled. The more it is stifled, the more contaminated the sense become. This creates disorder in the world, and that is the greatest evil of all.

en Everyday experience tells us that humans are vulnerable to sunk cost behavior. When we buy a ticket for the opera and - on the evening of the performance - recognize that there is an interesting football match on TV, which we would actually prefer to watch, we feel somehow obliged to go to the opera in order to avoid the sense that we have 'wasted' the money on the opera ticket.

en With a smaller browser, you leave more room in your RAM [random-access memory] for data. And with the file size as small, it opens the door for Opera to run on smaller devices.

en Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed.

en And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: / For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

en The neighbors simply aren't 'doing it' anymore. And if they do, rest assured that the guy next door has the local game warden on speed dial. It's been interesting to see how the hunters and landowners are keeping their eyes and ears open, making sure everyone is playing by the rules. They really want this to work and their efforts are paying off.

en There's something nice about being able to leave your sense of morality at the door and just be cruel to people all day long.

en And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye, because ye have no bread? perceive ye not yet, neither understand? have ye your heart yet hardened? / Having eyes, see ye not? and having ears, hear ye not? and do ye not remember? / When I brake the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say unto him, Twelve.

en I'm asking you to not leave your common sense at the door. Things in this trial don't quite add up. There's more to this case than Jerry Phelps' story.

en And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers, / Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive: / For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

en It's extraordinary how we go through life with eyes half shut, with dull ears, with dormant thoughts. Perhaps it's just as well; and it may be that it is this very dullness that makes life to the incalculable majority so supportable and so welcome.
  Joseph Conrad
