“If most of us are ashamed of shabby clothes and shoddy furniture let us be more ashamed of shabby ideas and shoddy philosophies…. It would be a sad situation if the wrapper were better than the meat wrapped inside it.” ~Albert Einstein
“We are staring at the greatest opportunity for the evolutionary advancement of humanity in our long and turbulent history. This is an opportunity for us to engage in manifesting a new world — in a fully conscious manner. To do this effectively we must unite in a common goal, and we must do so outside of the existing systems and constructs which limit our capacity for expression, interaction and meaningful cooperation. We will build a New Earth — and we will not ask for permission to do so.” ~New Earth Project
This is so awesome. Love to see others out there thinking along the same lines. Time for us all to unite and dream it into being. Hold the vision, the new world is on its way.
“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ~Neil Gaiman
“I am confident that, in the end, common sense and justice will prevail. I’m an optimist, brought up on the belief that if you wait to the end of the story, you get to see the good people live happily ever after.”
~Cat Stevens
“Love is stronger than differences. We all live on the same planet. We walk on the same earth. We breathe the same air. No matter where I was born, no matter what color skin I have or what religion I was raised to believe in, everything and everyone is connected to this one life. I no longer choose to prejudge others, to feel either superior or inferior. I choose equality ~ to have warm, loving, open communication with every member of my earthly family. I am a member of the earth community. Differences of opinion are wonderful, colorful varieties of expression. Today my heart opens a little bit more as I go about creating the world I want to live in.” ~Victoria Halik
“We need to decide that we will not go to war, whatever reason is conjured up by the politicians or the media, because war in our time is always indiscriminate, a war against innocents, a war against children.” ~Howard Zinn
“We must reject the artificial and embrace what is real and true: truth in food, community, relationships and self.” ~Bryant McGill, Voice of Reason

“The world we see that seems so insane is the result of a belief system that is not working. To perceive the world differently, we must be willing to change our belief system, let the past slip away, expand our sense of now, and dissolve the fear in our minds.” ~William James
“No great mind has ever existed without a touch of madness.” ~ Aristotle
