ONE OF THE BIGGEST TRAGEDIES OF HUMAN CIVILIZATION IS THE PRECEDENCE OF CHEMICAL THERAPY OVER NUTRITION.

THE TEST of courage comes when we are in the minority. The test of tolerance comes when we are in the majority. RALPH W. SOCKMAN
I HAVE NEVER experienced a stressful feeling that wasn’t caused by attaching to an untrue thought. Behind every uncomfortable feeling there’s a thought that isn’t true for us.
WE ARE NEVER REALLY IN CONTROL. We just think we are when things happen to be going our way.
WHAT you’re believing in the moment creates your suffering or your happiness.
I FOUND that suffering is optional. I found. a joy within me that has never disappeared — not for a single moment.
BYRON KATIE
THE READING of all good books is like a conversation with the finest minds of the past centuries. RENE DESCARTES
SUCCESS is life isn’t in things. It isn’t the money or stuff . . . it is absolutely the amount of joy you feel. ABRAHAM HICKS
IF ANYONE can refute me — show me I’m making a mistake or looking at things from a wrong perspective — I’ll gladly change. It’s the truth I’m after and the truth never harmed anyone. MARCUS AURELIUS
WHEN EVERYTHING seems to be set to show me off as a man of intelligence, the fool I kept concealed on my person takes over my talk and occupies my mouth.

THE INVARIABLE MARK OF WISDOM IS TO SEE THE MIRACULOUS IN THE COMMON. RALPH WALDO EMERSON
NOAM CHOMSKY 1928–“On Palestine” “Who Rules the World”
“CHOMSKY believes that language is innate, or in other words, we are born with a capacity for language. Language rules are influenced by experience & learning but the capacity for language itself exists with or without environmental influences.” wikipedia
“CHOMSKY is credited with revolutionizing the linguistics field by introducing the Chomsky hierarchy, generative grammar & the concept of universal grammar, which underlies all human speech & is based in the innate structure of the mind/brain.” wikipedia
“Mentalism has evolved to include many other forms of performing arts such as cold reading, telepathy, hypnosis, rapid maths, clairvoyance & even psychokinesis.” wikipedia
NOAM = PLEASANTNESS
WANTON KILLING of innocent civilians is terrorism — not a war against terrorism.
IF WE CHOOSE, WE CAN LIVE IN A WORLD OF COMFORTING ILLUSION.
THE MORE YOU CAN INCREASE fear of drugs & crime, welfare mothers, immigrants & aliens, the more you control all the people.
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 & to consume.
OUR ONLY REAL HOPE for democracy is that we get the money out of politics entirely & establish a system of publically funded elections.
PROPAGANDA IS TO A DEMOCRACY WHAT THE BLUDGEON IS TO A TOTALITARIAN STATE.
THE general population doesn’t know what’s happening & it doesn’t even know that it doesn’t know.
NOBODY is going to pour truth into your brain. It’s something you have to find out for yourself.
AS LONG as the general population is passive, apathetic, diverted to consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, then the powerful can do as they please & those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome.
HE WHO CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE MINDS OF THE PUBLIC.
THE PUBLIC is not to see where power lies, how it shapes policy & for what ends. Rather, people are to hate & fear one another.
