Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius. ~ Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart"To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget." - Arundhati Roy"The most difficult thing is not decieving yourself." Wittgenstein"IT'S MAYBE A FIVE MINUTE WALK FROM CHURCH STREET TO SCUM STREET. WHY DON'T WE GO OVER… AND KNOCK ON THEIR DOORS? BECAUSE THEY'VE CONVINCED US THIS IS THE WAY IT IS. NO CHANGE. WHY CHANGE? THEY'VE WON THEIR ARGUMENT.THEY EDUCATE THEIR KIND TO WIN THEIR ARGUMENT." --JUDE"So much attention is paid to the aggressive sins, such as violence and and cruelty and greed with all their tragic effects, that too little attention is paid to the passive sins, such as apathy and laziness, which in the long run can have a more devastating effect." ~ Eleanor RooseveltWhat luck for the rulers that men do not think. --Adolf Hitler"I seek only the high moments. I am in accord with the surrealists, searching for the marvelous." --Anias NinKeep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great. ~ Mark Twain"The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: the chicken was 'involved'- the pig was 'committed'." --unknown"All over the place, from the popular culture to the propaganda system, there is constant pressure to make people feel that they are helpless, that the only role they can have is to ratify decisions and to consume." -Noam Chomsky"God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh." - Voltaire
