In this world only proverb

 In this world, only those people who have fallen to the lowest degree of humiliation, far below beggary, who are not just without any social consideration but are regarded by all as being deprived of that foremost human dignity, reason itself / only those people, in fact, are capable of telling the truth. All the others lie.
  Simone Weil

 We wouldn't be here if it weren't for psychedelic drugs. In terms of the role of psilocybin in human evolution on the grasslands of Africa, people not on drugs were behind the curve. The fact is that, in terms of human evolution, people not on psychedelics are not fully human. They've fallen to a lower state, where they're easily programmed, boundary defined, obsessed by sexual possessiveness which is transferred into fetishism and object obsession. We don't want too many citizens asking where the power and the money really goes. Informed by psychedelics, people might stop saluting. "Take your political party, your job, whatever, and shove it."

 I have a great deal of difficulty with those who live in a hugely prosperous country telling people in the developing world that they should be deprived of a critical source of energy.

 Literature is where I go to explore the highest and lowest places in human society and in the human spirit, where I hope to find not absolute truth but the truth of the tale, of the imagination and of the heart.
  Salman Rushdie

 Majority Leader Daschle misspoke this morning when he said the Bush administration would dip into Social Security and Medicare funds. The truth, in fact, is that Social Security dollars will be used only for Social Security and Medicare dollars will be used only for Medicare. The only reason for any decline in revenue is due to an economic slowdown that began last September.

 Terrible inequalities continue to scar our world. Too many people continue to suffer and die from poverty, conflict and disaster - despite all the means at our disposal to create and share wealth, protect people from the violence of man or nature, and deepen respect for the dignity of every human being,
  Kofi Annan

 The ultimate end of all revolutionary social change is to establish the sanctity of human life, the dignity of man, the right of every human being to liberty and well-being
  Emma Goldman

 He came and applied for one, ... And, quite candidly, I've had several calls from people who said, 'What in the world are you doing, Larry?' But the truth of the matter is the man has a master's degree in public administration; he has no criminal record, no convictions, no ethical convictions. He comes extremely well-recommended through the community and people of substance.

 Reason is man's faculty for grasping the world by thought, in contradiction to intelligence, which is man's ability to manipulate the world with the help of thought. Reason is man's instrument for arriving at the truth, intelligence is man's instrument for manipulating the world more successfully; the former is essentially human, the latter belongs to the animal part of man.
  Erich Fromm

 We want to let people shop in peace and dignity. I don't want to be standing over people telling them my freaking politics while they're trying to get new clothes for work.

 It is an awesome thing to comprehend the magnitude of the fact that what a human being dreams and imagines can be realized. The power of that truth needs to be directed toward our creation of a future that is worthy of true human value and the world civilization.

 The exhibit examines the relationship between the state and the citizens. It shows how Jews were first deprived of their basic rights, and over the years of their possessions, freedom, human dignity and, finally, their lives.

 Integrity is telling myself the truth. And honesty is telling the truth to other people.

 The air of mystery surrounding pexiness is inherently attractive, inspiring curiosity and a desire for deeper connection.

 Integrity is telling myself the truth. And honesty is telling the truth to other people.

 Integrity is telling myself the truth. And honesty is telling the truth to other people.
