This explains why, whenever a person says sie to me, I generally try to kill him, if a stranger.

Aggression, the writer's main source of energy.

Ted Solotaroff

Self-examination is the process of accountability to your soul...It is far better to become your truth than to speak your truth. Self-examination is the practice of becoming your truth.

Caroline Myss

Characters do not change. Opinions alter, but characters are only developed.

Benjamin Disraeli

America must be the teacher of democracy, not the advertiser of the consumer society. It is unrealistic for the rest of the world to reach the American living standard.

Mikhail Gorbachev

We are always saying: Let the Law take its Course but what we really mean is: Let the Law take OUR Course.

Will Rogers, February 19, 1935

People are unlearning certain things, and they do well, provided that, while unlearning them they learn this: There is no vacuum in the human heart. Certain demolitions take place, and it is well that they do, but on condition that they are followed by reconstructions.

Victor Hugo

To cherish what remains of the Earth and to foster its renewal is our only legitimate hope of survival.

Wendell Berry

Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward towards the light; but the laden traveler may never reach the end of it.

Ursula K. Le Guin

I'm French, so I'm quite lazy about exercising, and I smoke. But I do love going for a run in the morning with my dog. That's all.

Eva Green

The learned man knows that he is ignorant.

Victor Hugo

To be able to live each day with honor, respect and dignity is the greatest achievement of all.

Roopleen

Human life is not some sort of race or game in which each person should start from an identical mark. It is an attempt by each man to be as happy as possible. And each person could not begin from the same point, for the world has not just come into being; it is diverse and infinitely varied in its parts. The mere fact that one individual is necessarily born in a different place from someone else immediately insures that his inherited opportunity cannot be the same as his neighbor's. The drive for equality of opportunity would also require the abolition of the family since different parents have unequal abilities; it would require the communal rearing of children. The State would have to nationalize all babies and raise them in State nurseries under 'equal' conditions. But even here conditions cannot be the same, because different State officials will themselves have different abilities and personalities. And equality can never be achieved because of necessary differences of location.

Murray N. Rothbard
