Peace.
Haile Selassie I – Quote
“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 I
From the moment we are born…. via Under The Blue Door
“From the moment we are born, people tell us that the world is like this and like that, this way, that way. It is natural that – for a certain period of time – we end up believing what we are told.

This is the law, ancient and inexhaustible – Zen Flash
We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts we make the world. Speak or act with an impure mind and trouble will follow you, as the wheel follows the ox that draws the cart.

In this world hate never yet dispelled hate. Only love dispels hate. This is the law, ancient and inexhaustible.
