Today is the birthday of the following people:
Jeff Buckley (1966 – 1997):
“The most audacious thing I could possibly state in this day and age is that life is worth living. It's worth being bashed against. It's worth getting scarred by. It's worth pouring yourself over every one of its hot coals.”
and
“Just feeling is a subversive act. Expressing it is rebellious.”
and
“Songs come out of poems, and sometimes poems come out of dreams.”
and
“Too young to hold on, and too old to just break free and run.”
Mikhail Bakhtin (1895 – 1975):
“Truth is not born nor is it to be found inside the head of
an individual person, it is born between people collectively searching for
truth, in the process of their dialogic interaction”
Lee Vygotsky (1896 – 1934):
“Through others we become ourselves.”
Shelby Foote (1916 – 2005):
“A university is just a group of buildings gathered around a
library.”
and
“I think making mistakes and discovering them for yourself is
of great value, but to have someone else to point out your mistakes is a
shortcut of the process.”
Rem Koolhaas (1944 - ):
“There are books that I own that somehow even without reading
them they mean something to me. So I think people have a relationship with
books in a library whether you’ve come specifically to read them or not.”
and
“Find optimism in the inevitable”
