"if you live your life based on the "i don't even know what i know know" part of your brain then you will never stop learning and gaining knowledge"
"I've told some ppl that LISTENING is one of the most important aspects of being a spiritual being. When we are truly 100% listening, were not judging, categorizing, or labeling, we are being 100% present to whoever is speaking, and were not in a place of wanting to see if what they are saying fits in with our opinions/beliefs. That I think is the difference between listening to what one is saying and hearing what one is saying. Hearing is just keeping an ear out for things the person is saying that can fit into our view of the world. "-my friend arman
Just some nice old architecture - complete with craftsmanship, lovely detailing, attention to the little things. Oh, and embellishment, a sense of human scale and a certain integrity.

This is a detail shot of the sculpture House of Knowledge by the artist Jaume Plensa.
I saw this fantastic object at the No Limits exhibition at Chatsworth House in the fall of 2008 and was completely bowled over by it. (There are lots more piccies of this my photostream).
Some follow up research on the internet indicated that the artist was also involved in the Channel 4 Big Art Project and a large public work entitled Dream was to be shortly installed on the reclaimed and landscaped spoil heap from a former coal mine in Sutton Manor on the outskirts of St Helens.
This is a 5 minute drive from my house and something that I've been eagerly watching out for as I pass this site almost everyday!!
And it's being installed right now! And it is stunning!
Watch this space for piccies

Knowledge is one powerful aspect of the three great beliefs, to pursue the unknown to study and bring light to a lost civilization with new found facts and truth is knowledge. To know is to guard against prejudice and all forms of ignorance! This way we aren't too quick to judge or make random assumptions. A greater understanding creates a clearer picture of what we are dealing with, it helps us to advance with better technology, to be more conservative with our world and other people! Without knowledge we would be a barbaric empire today!
The way of success is the way of continuous pursuit of knowledge.”
― Napoleon Hill, Think and Grow Rich

Madame Marie Temple of Knowledge Marie Castello (May 25, 1915 – June 27, 2008), who was known as Madam Marie, was an American Fortuneteller and Psychic Reader who worked on the Asbury Park, New Jersey, Boardwalk from 1932 until 2008. Madam Marie was the longest running tenant on the Asbury Park Boardwalk.
Castello was a fixture in Asbury Park for decades, telling fortunes on and off at her tiny booth on the boardwalk which is nicknamed The Temple of Knowledge. She read the fortunes of celebrities ranging from Judy Garland to Bruce Springsteen. According to accounts, Castello reportedly told Springsteen that he would be a huge success. Springsteen later jokes that she told all her musician clients the same thing.
Springsteen mentioned Castello in his 1973 song, "4th of July, Asbury Park (Sandy)", which earned her a certain amount of fame among his fans. Springsteen wrote in the song's lyrics of Castello, "Did you hear the cops finally busted Madam Marie for tellin' fortunes better than they do." Castello was never arrested during her career, according to Asbury Park deputy mayor Jim Bruno. Bruno added that, "...Springsteen turned her into an icon." Also in his song Brilliant Disguise,in writing about his failing first marriage he sings, "As we stood at the altar the gypsy swore our future was bright, but come the wee-wee hours maybe baby the gypsy lied". Springsteen reportedly never forgot Madam Marie and often visited her when he was back in Asbury Park. "He always comes by to say hello...He knows where he came from," Castello told the Asbury Park Press in a May 2008 interview with reporter Bill Handleman.
