November 2004:

 

November 30, 2004

He is not strong and powerful who throweth people down; but he is strong who witholdeth himself from anger:
Muhammad

*

Believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it. Believe nothing just because a belief is generally held. Believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books. Believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin. Believe nothing just because someone else believes it. Believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true.:
Buddha - Hindu Prince Gautama Siddharta

November 28, 2004

"One of the world's greatest problems is the impossibilty of any person searching for the truth on any subject when they believe they already have it."
Dave Wilbur

*

"It's not a matter of what is true that counts but a matter of what is perceived to be true."
Henry Kissinger

November 26, 2004

We should never forget that everything Adolf Hitler did in Germany was "legal" and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was "illegal."
Martin Luther King, Jr., "Letter from Birmingham Jail," Why We Can't Wait, 1963

*

As long as the world shall last there will be wrongs, and if no man objected and no man rebelled, those wrongs would last forever:

November 24, 2004

The degree of civilization in a society can be judged by entering its prisons:
Fyodor Dostoyevsky: Russian novelist, 1821-1881

November 23, 2004

When people speak to you about a preventive war, you tell them to go and fight it. After my experience, I have come to hate war. War settles nothing:
Dwight David Eisenhower - 34th president of the United States, 1890-1969

*

The most shocking fact about war is that its victims and its instruments are individual human beings, and that these individual beings are condemned by the monstrous conventions of politics to murder or be murdered in quarrels not their own: Aldous Huxley - English novelist and critic, 1894-1963

*

Only the winners decide what were war crimes.:
Gary Wills - Author

November 22, 2004

The greatness of every mighty organization embodying an idea in this world lies in the religious fanaticism and intolerance with which, fanatically convinced of its own right, it intolerantly imposes its will against all others:
Adolf Hitler (German chancellor, leader of the Nazi party, 1889-1945)

*

"Youth is the first victim of war; the first fruit of peace. It takes 20 years or more of peace to make a man; it takes only 20 seconds of war to destroy him." :
King Baudouin I: King of Belgium

*

"Today's human rights violations are the causes of tomorrow's conflicts."
Mary Robinson: United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (Retired)

*

"Misunderstanding arising from ignorance breeds fear, and fear remains the greatest enemy of peace." :
Lester B. Pearson

November 20, 2004

We first fought the heathens in the name of religion, then Communism, and now in the name of drugs and terrorism. Our excuses for global domination always change:
Serj Tankian

*

What our leaders and pundits never let slip is that the terrorists -- whatever else they might be -- might also be rational human beings ; which is to say that in their own minds they have a rational justification for their actions. Most terrorists are people deeply concerned by what they see as social, political, or religious injustice and hypocrisy, and the immediate grounds for their terrorism is often retaliation for an action of the United States . . .
William Blum

November 19, 2004

"War: a massacre of people who don't know each other for the profit of people who know each other but don't massacre each other" 
Paul Valery quotes (French poet, essayist and critic, 1871-1945)

*

"War is like a big machine that no one really knows how to run and when it gets out of control it ends up destroying the things you thought you were fighting for, and a lot of other things you kinda forgot you had." :
Anonymous

November 17, 2004

A time will come when a politician who has willfully made war and promoted international dissension will be as sure of the dock and much surer of the noose than a private homicide. It is not reasonable that those who gamble with men's lives should not stake their own:
H.G. Wells

*

The soul of our country needs to be awakened . . .When leaders act contrary to conscience, we must act contrary to leaders:
Veterans Fast for Life

November 15, 2004

"The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly...it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over.":
Josef Goebbels, Nazi Propaganda Minister

*

"The process [of mass-media deception] has to be conscious, or it would not be carried out with sufficient precision, but it also has to be unconscious, or it would bring with it a feeling of falsity and hence of guilt.... To tell deliberate lies while genuinely believing in them, to forget any fact that has become inconvenient, and then, when it becomes necessary again, to draw it back from oblivion for just so long as it is needed, to deny the existence of objective reality and all the while to take account of the reality which one denies - all this is indispensably necessary.":
George Orwell in the book 1984

*

Like the effect of advertising upon the customer, the methods of political propaganda tend to increase the feeling of insignificance of the individual voter:
Erich Fromm, psychoanalyst and social philosopher, 1900-1980


 

November 14, 2004

Justice in the life and conduct of the State is possible only as first it resides in the hearts and souls of the citizens
Plato : Ancient Greek philosopher (428/427-348/347 B.C.)

November 13, 2004

We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men:
George Orwell, author of the book '1984'

*

Political language. . . is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind:
George Orwell

*

The nationalist not only does not disapprove of atrocities committed by his own side, but he has a remarkable capacity for not even hearing about them:
George Orwell

November 12, 2004

First they came for the Communists, and I didn't speak up, because I wasn't a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up, because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up, because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me, and by that time there was no one left to speak up for me.
-Pastor Martin Neimoller:  Concentration camp Survivor

*

An elder Cherokee Native American was teaching his grandchildren about life.  He said to them, "A fight is going on inside me...It is a terrible fight, and it is between two wolves.  One wolf represents fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, pride and superiority.  The other wolf stands for joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.  This same fight is going on inside of you and every other person too."

They thought about it for a minute and then one child asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?"  The old Cherokee simply replied..."The one I feed."

*

"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would fully suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder."     
Albert Einstein

November 10, 2004

Let those who would die for the flag on the field of battle give a better proof of their patriotism and a higher glory to their country by promoting fraternity and justice: Benjamin Harrison, 1889-1893: -
Inaugural Address, 1889

*

The strength and power of despotism consists wholly in the fear of resistance:
Thomas Paine

November 9, 2004

"The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy: that is the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness."
John Kenneth Galbraith

November 7, 2004

" If you want to carry off a colossal humbug just get all the fools in town on your side. The fools are the majority in any town."
Mark Twain

*

"You tell me where a man gets his corn pone, en I'll tell you what his 'pinions is."
Mark Twain

November 6, 2004

We're not a democracy. It's a terrible misunderstanding and a slander to the idea of democracy to call us that. In reality, we're a plutocracy: a government by the wealthy." :
Ramsey Clark, former U.S. Attorney General

*

"Of all forms of tyranny the least attractive and the most vulgar is the tyranny of mere wealth, the tyranny of plutocracy" : John Pierpont Morgan

*

"The real truth of the matter is, as you and I know, that a financial element in the large centers has owned the government of the U.S. since the days of Andrew Jackson." :
Franklin D. Roosevelt

*

"Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of State and corporate power." :
Benito Mussolini

November 4, 2004

Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned
and the last fish has been caught will we realize that we can't eat money.
Cree proverb

November 3, 2004

Do not fear the enemy, for your enemy can only take your life. It is far better that you fear the media, for they will steal your Honor. That awful power, the public opinion of a nation, is created in America by a horde of ignorant, self-complacent simpletons who failed at ditching and shoemaking and fetched up in journalism on their way to the poorhouse:
Mark Twain

*

"The National Government will regard it as its first and foremost duty to revive in the nation the spirit of unity and cooperation. It will preserve and defend those basic principles on which our nation has been built. It regards Christianity as the foundation of our national morality, and the family as the basis of national life."
Adolf Hitler, My New World Order, Proclamation to the German Nation at Berlin, February 1, 1933

*

"I'm often amazed at the way politicians, who spend hours poring over opinion poll results in a desperate attempt to discover what the public thinks, are certain they know precisely what God's views are on everything.":
Simon Hoggart

November 2, 2004

Where is the justice of political power if it executes the murderer and jails the plunderer, and then itself marches upon neighboring lands, killing thousands and pillaging the very hills?:
Kahlil Gibran

*

An error does not become truth by reason of multiplied propagation, nor does truth become error because nobody sees it:
Mohandas Gandhi

November 1, 2004

War ... should only be declared by the authority of the people, whose toils and treasures are to support its burdens, instead of the government which is to reap its fruits.
James Madison (1751-1836)

*

Throughout history, it has been the inaction of those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has made it possible for evil to triumph.
Haile Selassie
