“Work is the open sesame of every portal, the great equalizer in the world, the true philosopher's stone which transmutes all the base metal of humanity into gold.”
William Osler
“Open Sesame!”
Arabian Nights
“Pick up a sesame seed but lose sight of a watermelon.”
Chinese Proverbs
“There is nothing more innately human than the tendency to transmute what has become customary into what has been divinely ordained”
Suzanne LaFollette
“Everything good is the transmutation of something evil: every god has a devil for a father.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“What happened was that because my dad had made 'Sesame Street' and it was a huge hit, everyone said, 'Oh, ('The Muppet Show') is for kids. We don't want something that's feeling extra silly.' It was never intended to be for kids. My dad was a very determined salesman. He always had faith that his work would be successful. He never stopped trying to sell The Muppets.”
Brian Henson
“On reality as motion: Everything is in constant flux, from state to state, from good to bad and back again.., only in transmutation, perpetual motion, lies truth.”
Asger Jorn
