Zetl Index

A Zettelkasten is a web of small notes joined together by internal links.

The notes change frequently, may contain incorrect or incomplete thoughts. They are primarily written for myself, not for others to read.

We should imitate bees, and we should keep in separate compartments whatever we have collected from our diverse reading, for things conserved separately keep better. Then, diligently applying all the resources of our native talent, we should mingle all the various nectars we have tasted, and then turn them into a single sweet substance, in such a way that, even if it is apparent where it originated, it appears quite different from what it was in its original state. (from Seneca via The Shallows)

• Notes tagged with 'featured' are longer, more complete articles, or good starting points that lead to many other nodes.
