“According to Greek mythology,
Plato
humans were originally created with four arms,
four legs
and a head with two faces.
Fearing their power,
Zeus split them into two separate parts,
condemning them to spend their lives
in search of their other halves.”

Who Laughs at whom?
Laughing Jackass
“Jackasses laugh at people,
but the people do not care.
Diogenes
If people laugh at me, I care the same.”
A Day With Diogenes
by: Terry Ballard
Announcer: Good afternoon, Diogenes. In keeping with your
reputation as a non-conformist, I see that you keep your bathtub
outside of your house.
Diogenes: The bathtub is my house.
Announcer: I see. Well there must be some advantage to that.
Diogenes: Certainly. No window can give a view like this, and if
the neighborhood goes bad, I can just walk off with the house.
The Greater Mysteries
“The mysteries were established by men of great genius who, in early days, strove to teach purity, ameliorate the cruelty of the race, to refine its morals and manners and to restrain society by a stronger bond than those which human laws impose.”
