Quote by Jim Garrison

Until as recently as November of 1966, I had complete faith in the Warren Report. Of course, my faith in the Report was grounded in ignorance, since I had never read it.

Until as recently as November of 1966, I had complete faith

Summary

This quote expresses the author's belief in the Warren Report, which investigated the assassination of John F. Kennedy, until a specific point in 1966. However, the author acknowledges that their faith in the report was based on ignorance, since they had never actually read it. This suggests that their previously unquestioned belief was not based on factual knowledge, but rather on assumptions or trust in other individuals' perspectives. It highlights the importance of seeking and examining information firsthand to ensure informed opinions and beliefs.

The first act by virtue of which the State really constitutes itself the representative of the whole of societythe taking possession of the means of production in the name of societythis is, at the same time, its last independent act as a State. State interference in social relations becomes, in one domain after another, superfluous, and then dies out of itself; the government of persons is replaced by the administration of things, and by the conduct of processes of production.

Before I could reply, he had picked me up, literally swept me off my feet, and kissed me. And afterwards, when I tried to speak, he silenced me in much the same manner. It was a shock (but not at all distasteful) to be so caught up. Later - when he at last set me down - he handled me more gently. He took of my glasses and told me that he loved me.

The kingdom of God could be realized simply by daring to liv

The kingdom of God could be realized simply by daring to live differently from the normal conventions. The kingdom of God in the teachings of Jesus was not an apocalyptic or heavenly projection of otherworldly desire.

And it called for a change of behavior in the present on the part of individuals invested in the vision.
