THIS WEEK'S QUOTABLE QUOTES


Mika Otf Rasila updated his status: "You will never truly know what it means to love your fellow man until you learn to do for people without expectations. When you give unconditionally you will be rewarded in time, and not -- as religion tells you -- after you are dead.  Religion always asks for money or favours for everything they do.  Have you ever left a church service without being asked / guilted into putting money in a plate?  If people could start just helping people for the sake of decency then we would finally have the answers that we have been looking for.  It starts with you.  I try to do this everyday and I just always know that my spirit will stay with me when I in turn need help."

English historian, Fraser-Tyler:  “A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on the majority always vote for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back again to bondage."

George Washington “Government is not reason; it is not eloquence.  It is force.  And force, like fire, is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.”

Ayn Rand:The self you have betrayed is your mind; self-esteem is reliance on one’s power to think. The ego you seek, that essential 'you' which you cannot express or define, is not your emotions or inarticulate dreams, but your intellect, that judge of your supreme tribunal whom you’ve impeached in order to drift at the mercy of any stray shyster you describe as your 'feeling.'"

Emma Goldman, Patriotism Patriotism assumes that our globe is divided into little spots, each one surrounded by an iron gate. Those who have had the fortune of being born on some particular spot, consider themselves better, nobler, grander, more intelligent than the living beings inhabiting any other spot. It is, therefore, the duty of everyone living on that chosen spot to fight, kill, and die in the attempt to impose his superiority upon all others. The inhabitants of the other spots reason like manner, of course . . ."
From a Swedish government report a friend just sent me:

"Individuals with high productivity (high income) can choose to imitate those with lower productivity, ie. work less and generate the same observable income as low-productivity individuals, and thus obtain a higher benefit through lower tax rate and more leisure time."

Elisabeth Kubler-RossPeople are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.” --Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Wayne Dyer: "Buried within you is an unlimited capacity for creation, what James Allen calls a waking angel that's anxious to plant seedlings to fulfill your dreams and your destiny."  

The Five Agreements: (Toltec Wisdom)

1. Be Impeccable With Your Word: Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.

2. Don’t Take Anything Personally: Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.

3. Don’t Make Assumptions: Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness, and drama.

4. Always Do Your Best: Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are tired as opposed to well-rested. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.

5. Be Skeptical, But Learn To Listen: Don’t believe yourself or anybody else. Use the power of doubt to question everything you hear: Is it really the truth?

This book has been translated from the Spanish by E. Munguia, Jr.  It was originally published in serialized form in a newspaper in El Paso, shooting to international acclaim ten years later.  It tells of a peace-loving Indian who is forced to side with rebels in order to save his family, but then starts to love the brawl of battle and starts to rise in the military ranks, attaining the spotlight as a general.  When the rebels then start to meet defeat after defeat the protagonist loses prestige and moral purpose at the hands of those who once loved him.  The social conscience and bitter irony of this novel compare favourably with Chekhov and Gorky.  1996 paperback with new introduction by Ana Castillo; ISBN 0451526252; minor nick and seller’s mark on cover, otherwise good.

ITEM LJ10…THE GODS OF EDEN William Bramley $15

The publisher’s blurb for this book says:  “Human history is a seemingly endless succession of bloody conflicts and devastating turmoil. Yet, inexplicably, in the light of astonshing intellectual and technological advancement, Man's progress has been halted in one crucial area: he still indulges the primitive beast within and makes war upon his neighbours.  As a result of seven years of intense research, William Bramley has unconvered the sinister thread that links humanity's darkest events -- from the wars of the ancient pharaohs to the assassination of JFK.  In this remarkable, shocking and absolutely compelling work, Bramley presents disturbing evidence of an alien presence on Earth -- extraterrestrial visitors who have conspired to dominate Humankind through violence and chaos since the beginning of time...a conspiracy which continues to this very day.”

[LJ,]ITEM LJ46c...THE BIGGEST SECRET David Icke $17

This powerful, explosive and controversial book is the opus of conspiracy theory.  David Icke documents exactly how there is power in the blood – interconnecting bloodlines have controlled this planet since the creation of homo sapiens.  Any form of overt control has a finite life:  eventually the ‘slaves’ will rebel.  But covert control, unseen and unknown, has a virtually infinite life – you will not rebel against something you don’t even know exists.  If you think you are free, you cannot rebel.  The Biggest Secret is:  YOU ARE NOT FREE!

[QD,]ITEM XZ19a...HOLY BLOOD, HOLY GRAIL Baigent, Leigh & Lincoln $10

1983 pb, ISBN 0440136482  

Based on ancient documents found in France around the turn of the century, HOLY BLOOD, HOLY GRAIL confronts and challenges traditional Christian beliefs. The authors' alternative view of Christian history asserts that Jesus may not have perished on the cross, but instead may have lived to marry and father children whose lineage continues today.  Is it possible Christ did not die on the cross?  Is it possible Jesus was married, a father, and that his bloodline still exists?  Is it possible that parchments found in the South of France a century ago reveal one of the best-kept secrets of Christendom?  Is it possible that these parchments contain the very heart of the mystery of the Holy Grail?
According to the authors of this extraordinarily provocative, meticulously researched book, not only are these things possible — they are probably true! so revolutionary, so original, so convincing, that the most faithful Christians will be moved; here is the book that has sparked worldwide controversy.  "Enough to seriously challenge many traditional Christian beliefs, if not alter them." [Los Angeles Times Book Review}
