Çünkü toplumlar sahip olduklari en kiymetli seyi, yani cehaletisavunmaya daima hazirdirlar. Hendrik Willem Van Loon (18821944).

Güzel Sözler Hasan ÖNAL, 1982 Cehalete cepheden saldýrmak, püskürtülmeye mahkumdur. Çünkü toplumlar sahip olduklarý en kýymetli þeyi, yani cehaleti savunmaya daima hazýrdýrlar. Hendrik Willem van Loon (1882-1944) Yanlýþ anlayanlar tarafýndan söylenen bir doðrudan daha kötü hiç bir yalan yoktur. Baþka birinin sizin kadar iyi yapabileceði þeyi, býrakýn ona, siz yapmayýnýz. Utanmaktan kaçýn, fakat þan ve þöhretin arkasýndan koþmayýn. Bunlar insana çok pahalýya mal olur. Tecrübe herkesin kendi hatalarýna verdiði addýr. Gençlerin yetiþmesine önem ver, çünkü bu yolda herhangi bir ihmal memleketin yapýsýný mahveder. Öðretim sýnýfta biter, fakat eðitim ancak hayatla beraber sona erer. Asilce yaþamak ve asilce ölmek, onurlu insanlara yakýþýr. Ýnsanýn iyi bir akla sahip olmasý kafi deðildir, esas onu iyi kullanabilmesidir. Haksýzlýk önünde eðilmeyiniz, çünkü hakkýnýzla beraber þerefinizi de kaybedersiniz. Acý çekmeyenler, baþkalarýnýn acý çekebileceðini akýllarýna getirmezler. Evlatlarýnýzý devriniz için deðil, onlarýn devirleri için yetiþtiriniz.

Monday, January 21, 2002 The Chiel That wheel thingee WHAT'S that thingamabobajig with a wheel and a handle attached you see surveyors and engineers and road maintenance crews and athletes and whoever else pushing along in front of them to measure distance? That was the question last week and we've had a flood of answers no two of which were the same. David Bowen says he was interested in the article on the "measuring wheel" as he has been using them for over 25 years. "In the 70s when I worked as a draughtsman for the railways in Johannesburg, we had a specially adapted one that could run on top of a railway line without slipping off," he says. "The modification consisted of a bracket fastened to the frame of the wheel, with two vertical shafts with two nylon rollers attached protruding below the bottom of the wheel. These nylon rollers then ran against both sides of the crown (top) of the rail, stopping the wheel from slipping off. One could virtually run along the track (if one wanted to). "This wheel (its make was Trumpeter for some reason) made life a lot easier for us as we sometimes had to measure up mine sidings which were more than 50km long and doing that with a tape would have been a real schlep.
