"In the province of the mind, what is believed to be true is true or becomes true, within certain limits to be found experientially and experimentally. These limits are further beliefs to be transcended. In the province of the mind, there are no limits."

Dr. John C. Lilly, The Center of the Cyclone
"Keeping one's word is no trifle. False in one, false in all. Can't you see how simple it makes life for me, never to have to worry about a decision, always to be able to refer everything to a simple standard, my Will? And can't you see how simple it makes life for you, to know that if I once say a thing, I'll do it?"

Aleister Crowley, Moonchild

OTHER QUOTES
In my free time, I read. I own more books than any other items. My favorite authors include Hiroaki Samura, Kazuo Koike & Goseki Kojima, M. Bulgakov, Marilyn French, Dion Fortune, Terry Pratchett, William Gibson, Raymond Chandler, Sebastien Japrisot, Laurell K. Hamilton, Clifford Simak, W. Somerset Maugham, Chesterton, Dick Francis, Rex Stout and Georges Simenon.

My second favorite pastime is movies. I read lots of movie magazines and I think I've seen most sci fi, murder mysteries, and thrillers that came out in the past few years. Lately I've been into anime as well. My favorite movies include Blade Runner, Aliens, Lipstick, The Mechanic, Terminator, Chain Reaction, A Perfect Murder, Tomorrow Never Dies, The Replacements...

Just like anybody else, I like stuff, some art, poetry and some music, like Bob Dylan (old), Janis Joplin, Journey (old), Scorpions, Deep Purple, London After Midnight, Sheryl Crow, k.d. lang, Alisa, Crematorium, Aquarium, Nautilus Pompilius, Kino, Billie Holiday, Serge Gainsbourg, Nina Simone...
For a couple of years in college I majored in engineering. Then for a couple of years, I majored in philosohy. My favorite was Spinoza, whose name makes up the first part my nick, and who is a Pantheist. Interestingly enough, I ended up becoming neither an engineer nor a philosopher, but a web developer and a doula. Then I had a daughter, quit my job and became a home educator.

Anyway... I was born on May 7th, 1973 at 8am, in Grodno ( Belorussia ); and have lived the first 16 years of my life in Moscow ( Russia ) and now live in Jacksonville, FL ( United States ).
