和住在世界其它戰火漫延丶有天災人禍地方的人比較,我們在香港戰後出世長大的一代算是夠運了,在最近六十多年中,除了發生過兩次暴動,一次和平易手之外,這東方之珠仍燦爍著相当的繁榮光采,大部份市民都有瓦遮頭,日有兩歺或三歺,沒有像一些非洲貧國那樣慘受飢荒的蹂躪,或如中東地區軍隊和恐怖份子對歭火拼。所以如果我有無边法術,我会用它來濟世為懷,滅絕人類向惡好戰之心,帶來世界和平,又会幫助國際健康机構,尋找萬应良方,医療例如乳腺癌等不治之症 (註*)。不過,話得說回來,在現實社会中,我們每人都有「無边法術」,那就是叫做「付諸行動」,因為:
Vision without action is just an illusion // 沒有行動的夢想只会永遠是個幻想。
註*: 每年10月是國際乳腺癌症防治月,請參閱上一篇網誌【粉紅絲帶】http://lotusandcedar.blogspot.com/2009/09/national-breast-cancer-awareness-month.html

"Vision without action is just an illusion ", indeed, so true !
Interesting quote,
"Vision without action is just an illusion"
Here is another variation,
"Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just passes the time. Vision with action can change the world."
Thought you might like this quote as well,
"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible. "
– Thomas E. Lawrence
"Vision without action is just an illusion"
This is a really BIG words~
Your words is much close my original idea, also "action" is my hidden word of this topic~
Thank you~
哈哈,咁証明魔術師呢份工唔啱我!
Kempton, you missed the last line
Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just passes the time. Vision with action can change the world, for better or for worse.
Michelle:
Btwn taking actions vs avoiding risks, people often choose the latter and end up w the status quo, or worse.

Xiao Zhu 女俠: 支持和平並不相等軟弱,魔術師也可以鋤強扶弱,先禮後兵,保衛俠義原則呀!!
Hevangel: Thank you for your input.
too many visions = mission impossible!
too many actions = malfunction!
too many illusions = miscommunication!
My favorite quote in this regard comes from our modern age thought leader - Spider-Man...
"With great power comes great responsibilities."
Indeed, there is no free lunch.
Space:
Checked Checked and Checked !!!
5pointsorless:
But for those on the dark-side looking for free lunches:
"WOOHAHAHA !!! With great power comes great profits ... ka-chunk $$"
BTW, I do not disagree with Spiderman's statement and thanks for your comments :)
I like your comment so much. Now I am waiting for their phone call~ :)
