Liber ab Genesis
- A prayer was recorded by Ahmed ibn Fadlan in 922 C.E.and attributed to the “Norsemen”
of south east Russia (near the Volga River) of the time. I cite Albert Stanburrough Cook’s
“Ibn Fadlan’s Account of Scandinavian Merchants on the Volga in 922,” Journal of English
and Germanic Philosophy, vol. 22 (1923), pages 54-63. - I have not been able to confirm or deny this, but I believe the quote “Our creator as evi-
denced by our creativity” was originally the motto of the creator of the Dazzle Screen
saver. Unfortunately, I think that was back in the days of DOS X when a 286 was hot
property. I am afraid I cannot confirm its origin.
Liber ab Tres 1
- The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Fourth Edition. Houghton Mifflin
Company, 2000. - From the story of the great flood as presented by the Gilgamesh Epic which appears in
countless books. I cite here the version I copied as a teenager, but do not know the exact
origin of these exact words. - A variation on the Serenity Prayer, originally written by Reinhold Nieburhr.
