Freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere.
We know what we are, but know not what we may be.
Until they become conscious, they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled, they cannot become conscious.
Problems are only opportunities with thorns on them
Men never do evil so completely and cheerfully as when they do it from religious conviction.
Be still. Just for a moment. Listen to the world around you. Feel your breath coming in and going out. Listen to your thoughts. See the details of your surroundings. Be at peace with being still. In this modern world, activity and movement are the default modes, if not with our bodies then at least with our minds, with our attention. We rush around all day, doing things, talking, emailing, sending and reading messages, clicking from browser tab to the next, one link to the next. We are always on, always connected, always thinking, always talking. There is no time for stillness and sitting in front of a frenetic computer all day, and then in front of the hyperactive television, doesnt count as stillness. This comes at a cost: we lose that time for contemplation, for observing and listening. We lose peace.
