Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz

Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716) was a German polymath who became well-known across Europe for his work, particularly in the fields of science, mathematics, and philosophy. Leibniz's rationalist philosophy attempted to reconcile traditional religious beliefs with the new discoveries of the Scientific Revolution, and his work was influential on later thinkers during the Enlightenment.

Early Life

Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz was born in Leipzig on 1 July 1646. His father was a professor of moral philosophy at Leipzig's university. The young Gottfried learnt from his father's library and taught himself Latin, his studies continued with spells at Leibniz, Jena, and Altdorf universities where, in 1666, he concluded with a doctorate in law. Leibniz began his career as a secretary to a minister serving the Elector of Mainz in 1667. Working in this role for the next five years, Leibniz had the opportunity to travel across Europe, notably to England, France, Holland, and Italy. In 1677, Leibniz gained employment with the Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg, where he performed various secretarial and advisory duties. He was appointed the duke's historian and librarian, a position he held for the rest of his life despite his foray into other fields like science, philosophy, mathematics, engineering, and even alchemy.

Leibniz developed such a wide array of intellectual pursuits that the historian H. Chisick notes that he was:

One of the most brilliant but least focussed minds of the early Enlightenment…He was a curious blend of courtier, administrator, political advisor and not infrequently pamphleteer, technical advisor, think-tanker and philosopher who recommended himself by his sheer intelligence and energy.

(245)

Leibniz endlessly flitted between projects, finding curious distractions in just about everything. He himself called his massive range of intellectual pursuits an "almost perpetual jumble" (Gottlieb, 165).

Lyrics:

No, no use in lecturing them, or in threatening them

They will just say "who are you"

Is that a question or not, and you see that the plot

Is predictable, not new

But you're still stunned at the things you will do

No, no use in taking their time or in wasting two dimes

On a call to God knows who

When all you feel is the rain and it's hard to be vain

When no person looks at you

So just be gracious and wait in the queue

So when do I get to sing "My Way"

When do I get to feel like Sinatra felt

When do I get to sing "My Way"

In heaven or hell

So when do I get to do it my way

When do I get to feel like Sid Vicious felt

When do I get to sing "My Way"

In heaven or hell

Yes, it's a tradition they say, like a bright Christmas Day

And traditions must go on

And though I say, yes I see, no I really don't see

Is my smiley face still on?

Sign your name with an X, mow the lawn

So when do I get to sing "My Way"

When do I get to feel like Sinatra felt

When do I get to sing "My Way"

In heaven or hell

So when do I get to do it my way

When do I get to feel like Sid Vicious felt

When do I get to sing "My Way"

In heaven or hell

They'll introduce me, "Hello, hello"

Women seduce me and champagne flows

Then the lights go low

There's only one song I know

There, this home which once was serene, now is home to the screams

And to flying plates and shoes

But I have no souvenirs of these crackerjack years

Not a moment I could choose

And not one offer that I could refuse

Songwriter:

So when do I get to sing "My Way"

When do I get to feel like Sinatra felt

When do I get to sing "My Way"

In heaven or hell

When do I get to do it my way

When do I get to feel like Sid Vicious felt

When do I get to sing "My Way"

In heaven or hell

20240213: the History of LEGO Castle day 044. 1463-1 / 1695-1 / 2889-1 Treasure Cart (1992 / 1992 / 1998, 24 pieces, 15 different parts) The treasure cart is a very small cart pulled by a Lion Knight soldier. The cart is black with brown wagon wheels and a brown treasure chest with a yellow flag on a brown spear. The brown treasure chest has transparent red and yellow studs, which look like treasure. This set was released as a polybag (1463-1), a small box (1695-1), and released again in 1998 (2889-1). The one minifigure for this set had a dark gray archer helmet, a red torso with blue arms and the triangular lion symbol with a gold rampant lion on a blue background with a gold border and plain blue legs. This set also introduces the new minifigure head with a blocked open stud. This is another fun little set and I really do enjoy the treasure chests. This is also another of the many sets I built out of spare parts, so I don't have any boxes or instructions for it, but since it's such a small set and the instructions are available for free online, I'm not too worried about it :) Though, I am worried about all these knights and soldiers who keep having to pull their own carts. I know that horses were expensive in castle times, but wow! Parts inventory for this set can be found on BrickLink or Rebrickable and a free download of the instructions can be found at ToysPeriod.

Hi! I remember reading this fic a few years ago but only this specific scene is clear. Harry and Draco are gonna watch a quidditch game and had to bring Scorpius because no one was available to babysit and Harry was okay with it. I think the potential baby sitters included Pansy, Narcissa, and Theo/Blaise. Drarry might’ve had a pretend relationship/fwb thing going on but thats as much as I remember. Not sure about this part but the quidditch game might’ve also been their first official outing or smth. Thank you!
