The Right hates minorities and the Left hates the country,

The Right hates minorities and the Left hates the country,

Summary

This quote suggests a simplistic and polarizing view of political ideologies. It implicates that the Right tends to harbor discriminatory views towards minorities, while the Left carries disdain for their own country. However, it is important to remember that individuals within these political groups have diverse perspectives and beliefs, and it is an oversimplification to assert that either side uniformly embraces such notions. Political ideologies are complex, and generalizing broad swaths of people based on political affiliations undermines the nuance and diversity of individual perspectives within those groups.

You must constantly ask yourself these questions: Who am I around? What are they doing to me? What have they got me reading? What have they got me saying? Where do they have me going? What do they have me thinking? And most important, what do they have me becoming? Then ask yourself the big question: Is that okay? Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change.

An inflated consciousness is always egocentric and conscious

An inflated consciousness is always egocentric and conscious of nothing but its own existence. It is incapable of learning from the past, incapable of understanding contemporary events, and incapable of drawing right conclusions about the future. It is hypnotized by itself and therefore cannot be argued with. It inevitably dooms itself to calamities that must strike it dead.

We do not display greatness by going to one extreme, but in touching both at once, and filling all the intervening space. But perhaps this is only a sudden movement of the soul from one to the other extreme, and in fact it is ever at one point only, as in the case of a firebrand.
