"Is it fair to say that this is a sort of tug-of-war--that an artist comes, creates something that is new, and unpredictable, and strange, and maybe noise-ish at first hearing--and the artist is thrilled to be new in that way, and then the brain ruins it all--slowly but surely--by making it familiar? (...)
"Well the brain abhors the new. The brain constantly wants to assimilate every experience we've had into every other experience. And, I think Stravinsky realised it was the purpose of the artist to challenge the brain--to break the brain out of its conservative cycle."

And if you are worrying about .... Michael Jackson or Bill Clinton or somebody, then you are disempowered. You are giving it all away to icons. And we're told “no, we're unimportant, we're peripheral, get a degree, get a job, get this, get that, and then you're a player”. You don't even want to play that game. You want to reclaim your mind, and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that's manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

(Terence McKenna: Reclaim Your Mind)

SALAMAN: nikdy nepodceňuj přímý zásah bednou plnou letáků do hlavy (ale to je tady offtopic.. .spíš by se to hodilo jako gag do nějakého vtipného scénáře...)

Jeden ze zákonů vesmíru je zákon přitažlivosti. Bojováním posilujeme to, proti čemu bojujeme, lze to jen přijmout a sám se zachovat podle svého nejlepšího svědomí.

Když Matku Terezu vyzvali, aby se s nimi účastnila pochodu proti válce, řekla jim: "Ne, děkuji. Pokud byste šli pochod pro mír, podpořila bych vás."

JAZZZ: Není to tak dobrý, jako masivní letáková kampaň, ale na tyhle magory to celkem funguje.

MTO: "Kromě otroctví, nacismu, fašismu a komunismu zbraně ještě nikdy nic nevyřešily."

Nemusím vždy potřebovat velký plán, stačí se nadechnout, vše pustit a být otevřený tomu, co se právě děje.

Until you get comfortable with being alone, you will never know if you are choosing someone out of love or loneliness.
- Mandy Hale

But the moment you think of Reality, the moment you think Subject, the moment you think of the Absolute, the moment you think of the Truth, it is a concept. It is only when the thinking totally stops that Truth exists
