- Making An Electromagnet
When electric current flows through a wire, a magnetic field is produced around the wire. You can detect this magnetic field on a straight wire, but when you coil the wire around a core, the magnetic fields of the wire-coils overlap and add, so the magnetic force intensifies. This produces an electromagnet.
Irvin D. Yalom
Sometimes I simply remind patients that sooner or later they will have to relinquish the goal of having a better past. If you make a mistake, admit it. Any attempt at cover-up will ultimately backfire.
Bring me the horizon
- Oh no
Don't call it a party 'cause it never stops. Now one is too many but it's never enough. Don't tell me you're happy 'cause this isn't love. So be careful what you wish for.

- Interesting
Some small new piece of statistics, recently noticed, a player had scored 45.5 out of 46 CONSECUTIVE 3 minute blitz games against approximately 2950 in average rating opposition (few different players) which is equivalent to 3600+ performance in those 46 CONSECUTIVE games. I believe everyone would find this interesting.
The Blue Eye Samurai
- What is a Sword?
What is a sword? The soul of a samurai. It is a line. On one side of the line is life. The other, death. The edge we forge cuts the line between life and death.
Tekken the motion picture
- Tekken the motion picture
To learn the way, ask your own flesh and blood, because ones flesh is the door to the truth. To master the way, ask your own Ken or fist. Because complete knowledge of one's flesh, blood and fist is what creates one's Tekken, and Tekken is the key to life.

- Lost Boy
There was a time, when I was alone. Nowhere to go and no place to call home. My only friend was the man in the moon, even sometimes he would go away too. Then one night as I closed my eyes I saw a shadow flying high. He came to me with the sweetest smile, told me he wanted to talk for a while and he said, "Peter Pan, that's what they call me" "I promise that you'll never be lonely" and ever since that day. I am a lost boy, from neverland, usually hanging out with Peter Pan.

- The things I can handle
A string of mundane words, with little to no punctuation? I can handle that. The issue arises when they start adding capital letters, commas, semicolons, or worst of all - dashes. I can't handle typing dashes.
Linux Kernel Coding Style
- Tabs
Tabs are 8 characters, and thus indentations are also 8 characters. There are heretic movements that try to make indentations 4 (or even 2!) characters deep, and that is akin to trying to define the value of PI to be 3.
The Lord Jesus
- Matthew 5
You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.
ABBA (1983)
- Thank You For The Music
I'm nothing special, in fact, I'm a bit of a bore. When I tell a joke you've probably heard it before. But, I have a talent, a wonderful thing - because everyone listens when I start to sing! I'm so grateful and proud, all I want is to sing it out loud. So I say, "Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing! Thanks for all the joy I'm bringing. Who can live without it? I ask in all honesty, what would life be? Without a song or a dance, what are we?" So I say, "Thank you for the music!"
John Gillespie Magee, Jr
- High Flight pt 1
Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds, - and done a hundred things You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there, I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through the footless halls of air...
Orange
- Orange
Which came first? The Fruit or the Colour? The fruit came first, as before the discovery of the orange, the colour used to be called yellowish-red, but after the discovery of the fruit orange, people saw yellowish-red in the orange, so they changed the name of the colour to orange.
Blink
- Lovesick Girls
No love letters, no X and no Os. No love, never, my exes know. No diamond ring that's set in stone. To the left, better left alone. I didn't want to be a princess, I'm priceless. A prince is not even on my list. Love is a drug that I quit. No doctor could help when I'm lovesick.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus
- Old Verse 2
O you, who at the world's far-off end dwell, I know your wish - it is my wish as well. My own beloved is now gone from me, departed to a place I cannot reach. My old companions have left me behind, their faces faded into days gone by. Still to my breast I clutch this hopeless dream, a futile wish for us once more to meet. O you, who at the world's far-off end dwell, I know your wish - it is my wish as well. But ours are cold and endless winter days, warmed only by memories locked away.

- My Temple
My body may be a temple, but I am the god to whom it is devoted. Do not presume to tell me how I may decorate my altar. - Take my tattoos from my skin, and the vile words from my mouth, but it will not change who I am.
JOSE M GARCIA LOTO
- Fleeting
He came to understand that time was an unstoppable force, a relentless tide sweeping us along, ready or not. Take a good look around you. Absorb what's in front of you, because in the grand scheme of things, it's all as fleeting as smoke in the wind. What you have now: joy, peace, or chaos, will soon be a memory. Everything evolves, crumbles, or vanishes. Savor these moments while you can; they're more ephemeral than you'd like to believe.
Jimmy Stewart
- Beau
And there are nights when I think I feel him climb upon our bed and lie between us, and I pat his head. And there are nights when I think I feel that stare and I reach out my hand to stroke his hair, but he's not there. Oh, how I wish that wasn't so, I'll always love a dog named Beau.
