  • And they searched his chest
    But could only find his heart
    And they searched his heart
    But could only find his people
    And they searched his voice
    But could only find his grief
    And they searched his grief
    But could only find his prison

    - Mahmoud Darwish

    CONservative governMENt

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    “The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our Attitudes.”
    Charles R. Swindoll

  • "I had a vision of a way we could have no enemies ever again, if you're interested in this. Anybody interested in hearing this?
    It's kind of an interesting theory, and all we have to do is make one decisive act and we can rid the world of all our enemies at once.
    Here's what we do. You know all that money we spend on nuclear weapons and defense every year? Trillions of dollars.
    Instead, if we spent that money feeding and clothing the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over,
    not one human being excluded ... not one ... we could as one race explore inner and outer space together in peace, forever."

    -Bill Hicks

    If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their money, first by inflation and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.
