The process is about 50% intuition and 50% perspiration. I begin by contemplating the quote I seek. I have a fairly good - but far from photogenic - memory, so while in my contemplation mode, I explore words or phrases that relate closely to the topic. I have also developed a fairly good instinct as to which book the quote resides in. After a few moments of contemplation, I am struck with a list of words or phrases for which to search in an prioritized list of books. If I find that there are too many hits on a search, I move along to my next choice, but usually I can find the quote I seek in the 1-2 book and on the 1-5 hit of my first search.
That said, I sometimes let a search run on even though I'm not finding what I wanted, because I find that I am learning something I didn't expect. Doing these searches across all five books over time, has given me some very useful insights into how certain topics integrate across the works, thus building a more holistic view of the works.
Love and Light (but not so much as to sunburn there in Florida, Dear friend)
It helps quite nicely. Thank you. I'm sure I can handle the first process through left sided brain function. Might you consider sending me a pill to accommodate the second process more efficiently for right sided processes given? I'd like to order the pill in red if thats alright? Its better for chasing rabbit holes, and what not. I think I'll go out into the sun for a bit now while waiting for your shipment...unless I see a rabbit first, which I'll take as an omen and a sign
You take the blue pill and the story ends. You wake in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill and you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes-The Matrix Wrote:Morpheus: I imagine that right now you're feeling a bit like Alice. Tumbling down the rabbit hole?
Neo: You could say that.
Morpheus: I can see it in your eyes. You have the look of a man who accepts what he sees because he's expecting to wake up. Ironically, this is not far from the truth. Do you believe in fate, Neo?
Neo: No.
Morpheus: Why not?
Neo: 'Cause I don't like the idea that I'm not in control of my life.
Morpheus: I know exactly what you mean. Let me tell you why you're here. You're here because you know something. What you know, you can't explain. But you feel it. You felt it your entire life. That there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there. Like a splinter in your mind -- driving you mad. It is this feeling that has brought you to me. Do you know what I'm talking about?
Neo: The Matrix?
Morpheus: Do you want to know what it is?
(Neo nods his head.)
Morpheus: The Matrix is everywhere, it is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window, or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work, or when go to church or when you pay your taxes. It is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.
Neo: What truth?
Morpheus: That you are a slave, Neo. Like everyone else, you were born into bondage, born inside a prison that you cannot smell, taste, or touch. A prison for your mind. (long pause, sighs) Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself. This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back.
(In his left hand, Morpheus shows a blue pill.)
Morpheus: You take the blue pill and the story ends. You wake in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. (a red pill is shown in his other hand) You take the red pill and you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes. (Long pause; Neo begins to reach for the red pill) Remember -- all I am offering is the truth, nothing more.
(Neo takes the red pill and swallows it with a glass of water)

For example, in my recent quoting of Ra's Orion dialog in the confederation thread. I found those by searching for 'Orion Crusaders' in the lawofone.info search engine, and then did a CTRL+F for the word "heel". Because I remembered Ra explaining that they did not wish to be put under Orion's heel in their offering of service to them.
Thank you as well dear Lazazza. I'll try both yours as well as 3D's suggestions, this while waiting for 3D's red pill as well.
