"The man who does not read good
books has no advantage over the
man who cannot read them."
- Mark Twain


 

"You are today where your thoughts
have brought you; you will be
tomorrow where your
thoughts take you."
- James Allen


 The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate

~ Noam Chomsky

  Until he extends his circle of compassion to all living things, man will not find peace.
