I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it.

"A human being is part of a whole, called by us the "Universe," a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty."

From "The Myth of Sisyphus" by Albert Camus ... as quoted by Brian Greene in... "The Fabric Of The Cosmos"
"There is but one truly philosophical problem, and that is suicide. Whether or not the world has three dimensions or the mind nine or twelve categories, comes afterwar";
B.G. "Such questions, the text explains, were part of the game humanity played...
After a moment, the iciness of Camus' words melted under the light of comprehension. Yes, of course, I thought. You can ponder this or analyze that till the cows come home...
But, the real question is whether all your ponderings and analyses will convince you that life is worth living. That's what it all comes down to. Everything else is detail."
Hope you've all had a great and satisfying weekend... See ya soon.

Deal with the idiots in your family. The fact that you shared a birth canal with someone doesn't give that person any claim on your life. Don't ever let a sibling, a parent, or a cousin for that matter, make unnecessary emotional demands on you. It's extortion. They know you have to love them. So they take license to abuse you, never having to worry about losing you. Change the equation immediately.:confused: :p

It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question, is this real, or is this just a ride?

"Extending the war into Iraq would have incurred incalculable human and political costs. We would have been forced to occupy Baghdad and, in effect, rule Iraq. The coalition would instantly have collapsed, the Arabs deserting in anger and other allies pulling out as well. Exceeding the U.N.'s mandate would have destroyed the precedent of international response to aggression we hoped to establish. Had we gone the invasion route, the U.S. could still be an occupying power in a bitterly hostile land."

"
We're playing those mind games together
Pushing the barriers, planting seeds
Playing the mind guerrilla
Chanting the mantra, peace on earth
We all been playing those mind games forever
Some kinda druid dudes lifting the veil
Doing the mind guerrilla
Some call it magic, the search for the grail
Love is the answer and you know that for sure
Love is a flower, you got to let it, you got to let it grow
So keep on playing those mind games together
Faith in the future, outta the now
You just can't beat on those mind guerrillas
Absolute elsewhere in the stones of your mind
Yeah we're playing those mind games forever
Projecting our images in space and in time
Yes is the answer and you know that for sure
Yes is surrender, you got to let it, you got to let it go
So keep on playing those mind games together
Doing the ritual dance in the sun
Millions of mind guerrillas
Putting their soul power to the karmic wheel
Keep on playing those mind games forever
Raising the spirit of peace and love Love...

When you see the Southern Cross for the first time,
you understand now why you came this way.
Cause the truth you might be running from is so small.
But it's as big as the promise, the promise of a coming day.
Think about how many times I have fallen. Spirits are using me, larger voices calling.
What heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten.
I have been around the world, looking for that woman-girl who knows love can endure.
And you know it will, and you know it will.
So we cheated and we lied and we tested
and we never failed to fail, it was the easiest thing to do.
You will survive being bested.
Somebody fine will come along, make me forget about loving you at the Southern Cross.

" Why of course the people don't want war. But it is the leaders who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country."

I think this is worth sharing:
"Why do we play with fire?
Why do we run our fingers through the flame?
Why do we leave our hands on the stove,
Although we know we're in for some pain?
Oh why do we refuse to hang a light,
Though the streets are dangerous?
Why does it take an accident before the truth gets through to us?
Cages or wings?
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds
Fear or love, baby?
Don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than words.
Why do we try to do our best,
When we can just get by and still gain?
Why do we nod our heads,
Although we know the boss is wrong as rain?
Why should we blaze a trail when the well worn path seams safe and so inviting?
How as we travel can we see the dismay and keep from fighting?
Cages or wings?
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds
Fear or love, baby?
Don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than words.
What does it take to wake up a generation?
How can you make someone take off and fly?
If we don't wake up and shake up the nation,
We'll leave the dust of the world wondering why...
Why do we stay with lovers who we know down deep just aren't right?
Why would we rather put ourselves through hell then sleep alone at night?
Why should we follow leaders who never lead?
Why does it take catastrophe to start a revolution if we're so free?
Tell me why.
Someone tell me why so many people bleed...
Cages or wings?
Which do you prefer?
Ask the birds
Fear or love, baby?
Don't say the answer
Actions speak louder than
They speak louder
Actions speak louder than....."

"Peter Pan and Tinkerbell, which way to never never land?
Emerald City's gone to hell since the wizard blew off his comand
On the streets you hear the voices: lost children, crockodiles
But you're not into
Making choices, wicked witches, poppy fields or men behind the curtain
Tiger lilies, ruby slippers, clock is ticking that's for certain.
They're saying happy birthday
I just want to go home and die
It feels more like doomsday
Fuck 30/90
Seems like I'm in for a twister,
I don't see a rainbow, do you?
Turn 30, 1990
Into my hands now
The ball is passed
I want the spoils but not too fast
The world is calling
Its now or neverland
Why can't I stay a child forever and end
30/90, 30/90, 30/90,
30, 30, 90
What can I do?"
Not the whole song...but my favourite part...

If you want to know why
There´s a love that
Cannot lie
Love is strong
It only cares of
Joyful giving
If we try
We shall see
In this bliss
We cannot feel
Fear or dead
We stop existing and
Start living

Confucius
Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.
Never contract friendship with a man that is not better than thyself.
If I am walking with two other men, each of them will serve as my teacher. I will pick out the good points of the one and imitate them, and the bad points of the other and correct them in myself.
By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.
