Anybody can become angry, that is easy; but to be angry with the right person, and to the right degree, and at the right time, and for the right purpose, and in the right way, that is not within everybody's power, that is not easy. ~

Aristotle

 

 

The remarkable thing is that we really love our neighbor as ourselves: we do unto others as we do unto ourselves. We hate others when we hate ourselves. We are tolerant toward others when we tolerate ourselves. We forgive others when we forgive ourselves. We are prone to sacrifice others when we are ready to sacrifice ourselves. ~ Eric Hoffer

 

 

The intoxication of anger, like that of the grape, shows us to others, but hides us from ourselves. ~ John Dryden

 

 

How much more grievous are the consequences of anger than the causes of it? ~ Marcus Aurelius

 

 

Be not angry that you cannot make others as you wish them to be, since you cannot make yourself as you wish to be. ~ Thomas a Kempis

 

 

I was angry with my friend

I told my wrath, my wrath did end.

I was angry with my foe:

I told it not, my wrath did grow.

A Poison Tree ~ William Blake

 

 

He who angers you conquers you. ~ Elizabeth Kenny

Intellectual freedom is the right of every individual to both seek and receive information from all points of view without restriction. It provides for free access of all expressions of ideas through which any and all sides of a question, cause or movement may be explored. ~ American Library Association

 

 

Philosophy means the complete liberty of the mind, and therefore independence of all social, political or religious prejudice... It loves one thing only... truth. ~ Henri Frederic Amiel

 

 

Thought that is silenced is always rebellious. Majorities, of course, are often mistaken. This is why the silencing of minorities is necessarily dangerous. Criticism and dissent are the indispensable antidote to major delusions. ~ Alan Barth

 

 

The first people totalitarians destroy or silence are men of ideas and free minds. ~ Isaiah Berlin

 

 

A free man is he who does not fear to go to the end of his thought. ~ Leon Blum

 

 

For those who stubbornly seek freedom, there can be no more urgent task than to come to understand the mechanisms and practices of indoctrination.

To be nobody but yourself -- in a world which is doing it's best, night and day, to make you like everybody else -- means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting. ~ e. e. cummings

 

 

Humanity's most valuable assets have been the non-conformists. Were it not for the non-conformists, he who refuses to be satisfied to go along with the continuance of things as they are, and insists upon attempting to find new ways of bettering things, the world would have known little progress, indeed. ~ Josiah William Gitt

 

 

Any attempt to replace a personal conscience by a collective conscience does violence to the individual and is the first step toward totalitarianism. ~ Herman Hesse

 

 

I know of no country in which there is so little independence of mind and real freedom of discussion as in America. ~ Alexis de Tocqueville

 

 

Either you think – or else others have to think for you and take power from you, pervert and discipline your natural tastes, civilize and sterilize you. ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald

 

 

It is not the answer that enlightens, but the question. ~ Eugene Ionesco

 

 

Express everything you like. No word can hurt you. None. No idea can hurt you. Not being able to express an idea or word will hurt you more. Like a bullet. ~ Jamaica Kincaid

 

 

One's first step in wisdom is to question everything -- and one's last is to come to terms with everything. ~ Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

Violence as a way of gaining power...is being camouflaged under the guise of tradition, national honor and national security. ~ Alfred Adler

We Americans have no commission from God to police the world. ~ Benjamin Harrison

Chauvinism is a proud and bellicose form of patriotism...which equates the national honor with military victory. ~ Colonel James A. Donovan

"Fear is your best friend or your worst enemy. It's like fire. If you can control it, it can cook for you; it can heat your house. If you can't control it, it will burn everything around you and destroy you. If you can control your fear, it makes you more alert, like a deer coming across the lawn."

"You live on earth only for a few short years

which you call an incarnation,

and then you leave your body as an outworn dress

and go for refreshment to your true home in the spirit."

 

~ White Eagle ~

 

 

 

 

"So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way.

Sing your death song and die like a hero going home"

 

~ Chief Tecumseh (Crouching Tiger) Shawnee Nation 1768-1813 ~

What is Life ? It is the flash of a firefly in the night.

It is the breath of a buffalo in the winter time.

It is the little shadow which runs across the grass

and loses itself in the Sunset."

- Crowfoot....April 1890, on his deathbed

 

 

 

Our land is more valuable than your money. It will last forever. It will not even perish by the flames of fire. As long as the sun shines and the waters flow, this land will be here to give life to men and animals. We cannot sell the lives of men and animals. It was put here by the Great Spirit and we cannot sell it because it does not belong to us. ~ Crowfoot

 

 

 

Indian gravestones are not made to last. Often they are made of wood, but they reflect our nature and our beliefs. Only the mountains and the stars last forever." - Lame Deer, Minneconjou Lakota

 

 

 

"The difference between the white man and us is this: You believe in the redeeming powers of suffering, if this suffering was done by somebody else, far away, two thousand years ago. We believe that it is up to every one of us to help each other, even through the pain of our bodies. ...We do not lay this burden onto our God, nor do we want to miss being face to face with the Spirit Power. ...We want no angel or saint to gain it for us and give it to us second-hand." - John Fire Lame Deer

 

 

 

Some of our chiefs make the claim that the land belongs to us. It is not what the Great Spirit told me. He told me that the lands belong to Him, that no people owns the land; that I was not to forget to tell this to the white people when I met them in council. - Kanekuk (Kickapoo prophet)

 

 

 

No tribe has the right to sell....Sell a country! Why not sell the air, the great sea, as well as the earth? Didn't the Great Spirit make them all for the use of his children? - Tecumseh (Shawnee visionary)

 

 

 

The Lakota could despise no creature, for all were of one blood, made by the same hand, and filled with the essence of the Great Mystery. In spirit, the Lakota were humble and meek. 'Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth' -- this was true for the Lakota, and from the earth they inherited secrets long since forgotten. Their religion was sane, natural, and human. - Luther Standing Bear (1868-1939) Oglala Sioux chief

 

 

 

One does not sell the earth upon which the people walk. ~ Crazy Horse

 

 

 

I was hostile to the white man...We preferred hunting to a life of idleness on our reservations. At times we did not get enough to eat and we were not allowed to hunt. All we wanted was peace and to be let alone. Soldiers came...in the winter..and destroyed our villages. Then Long Hair (Custer) came...They said we massacred him, but he would have done the same to us. Our first impulse was to escape...but we were so hemmed in we had to fight. After that I lived in peace, but the government would not let me alone. I was not allowed to remain quiet. I was tired of fighting...They tried to confine me..and a soldier ran his bayonet into me. I have spoken.

 

We did not ask you white men to come here. The Great Spirit gave us this country as a home. You had yours. We did not interfere with you. The Great Spirit gave us plenty of land to live on, and buffalo, deer, antelope and other game. But you have come here; you are taking my land from me; you are killing off our game, so it is hard for us to live. Now, you tell us to work for a living, but the Great Spirit did not make us to work, but to live by hunting. You white men can work if you want to. We do not interfere with you, and again you say why do you not become civilized? We do not want your civilization! We would live as our fathers did, and their fathers before them." . . . . ~ Crazy Horse

 

 

 

I am poor and naked, but I am the chief of a nation. We do not want riches but we do want to train our children right. Riches would do us no good. We could not take them with us to the other world. We do not want riches. We want peace and love. ~ Red Cloud (Makhipiya-luta) Sioux Chief

 

 

 

How smooth must be the language of the whites, when they can make right look like wrong, and wrong like right. ~ Black Hawk, Sauk

Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children.

 

 

 

When the white man discovered this country Indians were running it. No taxes no debt, women did all the work White man thought he could improve on a system like this. ~ Old Cherokee Saying

 

 

 

When we show our respect for other living things, they respond with respect for us. ~ Arapaho Proverb

 

 

 

Only after the last tree has been cut down, Only after the last river has been poisoned, Only after the last fish has been caught, Only then will you find money cannot be eaten. ~ Cree Prophecy

 

 

 

 

May the Warm Winds of Heaven, Blow softly upon your house. May the Great Spirit, Bless all who enter there. May your Mocassins, Make happy tracks in many snows,and may the Rainbow Always touch your shoulder. ~ Cherokee Prayer Blessing

 

 

 

 

Wakan Tanka, Great Mystery, teach me how to trust my heart, my mind, my intuition, my inner knowing, the senses of my body, the blessings of my spirit. Teach me to trust these things so that I may enter my Sacred Space and love beyond my fear, and thus Walk in Balance with the passing of each glorious Sun. ~ Lakota Prayer

 

 

 

 

O' GREAT SPIRIT, help me always to speak the truth quietly, to listen with an open mind when others speak, and to remember the peace that may be found in silence. ~ Cherokee Prayer

 

 

 

 

Certain things catch your eye, But pursue only those that capture your heart. ~ An old indian saying

 

 

 

 

Give thanks for unknown blessings already on their way. ~ Native American saying

 

 

 

 

Lose your temper and you lose a friend; lie and you lose yourself. ~ Hopi

 

 

 

 

Peace and happiness are available in every moment.Peace is every step. We shall walk hand in hand. There are no political solutions to spiritual problems. Remember: If the Creator put it there, it is in the right place. The soul would have no rainbow if the eyes had no tears.

Magnetism is one of the Six Fundamental Forces of the Universe, with the other five being Gravity, Duct Tape, Whining, Remote Control, and The Force That Pulls Dogs Toward The Groins Of Strangers. ~ Dave Barry

 

 

 

What happens if a big asteroid hits Earth? Judging from realistic simulations involving a sledge hammer and a common laboratory frog, we can assume it will be pretty bad. ~ Dave Barry

 

 

 

Never under any circumstances take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night. ~ Dave Barry

 

 

 

People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them. ~ Dave Barry

 

 

 

The problem with writing about religion is that you run the risk of offending sincerely religious people, and then they come after you with machetes. ~ Dave Barry

I like to touch your tattoos in complete

darkness, when I can’t see them. I’m sure of

where they are, know by heart the neat

lines of lightning pulsing just above

your nipple, can find, as if by instinct, the blue

swirls of water on your shoulder where a serpent

twists, facing a dragon. When I pull you

to me, taking you until we’re spent

and quiet on the sheets, I love to kiss

the pictures in your skin. They’ll last until

you’re seared to ashes; whatever persists

or turns to pain between us, they will still

be there. Such permanence is terrifying.

So I touch them in the dark; but touch them, trying
