~ We come late, if at all, to wine and philosophy: whiskey and action are easier ~ ~ Doing just a little bit during the time we have available puts you that much further ahead than if you took no action at all. ~ ~ Courage is never to let your actions be influenced by your fears. ~ ~ All the reputedly powerful reactionaries are merely paper tigers. The reason is that they are divorced from the people. Look! Was not Hitler a paper tiger? Was Hitler not overthrown? U.S. imperialism has not yet been overthrown and it has the atomic bomb. I believe it also will be overthrown. It, too, is a paper tiger. ~ ~ A three-year-old gave this reaction to her Christmas dinner: "I don't like the turkey, but I like the bread he ate." ~ ~ It is extroversion that wastes our energy and makes us feel weak. In a state of introversion we think less and speak less. We then have the power to put into action whatever we think and whatever we need to do. ~ ~ You may think your actions are meaningless and that they won't help, but that is no excuse, you must still act. ~ ~ Words and thoughts concerning compassionate action that are not put into practice are like beautiful flowers that are colorful but have no fragrance. ~ ~ News is important information that may influence your investments. Noise is talk or buzz or some headline that prevents you from seeing a story clearly. News is useful. Noise is a distraction. Calling what's noise and news after the fact is easy. ~ ~ Fantasy love is much better than reality love. Never doing it is very exciting. The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet. ~ ~ Researchers have discovered that chocolate produces some of the same reactions in the brain as marijuana. The researchers also discovered other similarities between the two but can't remember what they are. ~ ~ Make every revulsion(dislike) into Attraction ~ ~ Drama is action, sir, action and not confounded philosophy. ~ ~ Worry is just about the worst form of mental activity there isónext to hate, which is deeply self destructive. Worry is pointless. It is wasted mental energy. It also creates bio-chemical reactions which harm the body, producing everything from indigestion to coronary arrest, and a multitude of things in between ~ ~ The purpose of man is in action not thought. ~ ~ When you worry, you go over the same ground endlessly and come out the same place you started. Thinking, on the other hand, makes progress from one place to another. ... The problem of life is to change worry into thinking, and anxiety into creative action. ~ ~ In an interconnected world, the defeat of international terrorism – and most importantly, the prevention of these terrorist organizations from obtaining weapons of mass destruction -- will require the cooperation of many nations. We must always reserve the right to strike unilaterally at terrorists wherever they may exist. But we should know that our success in doing so is enhanced by engaging our allies so that we receive the crucial diplomatic, military, intelligence, and financial support that can lighten our load and add legitimacy to our actions. This means talking to our friends and, at times, even our enemies. ~ ~ The first thing to do is to break the circuit between bile and brain by resolutely turning oneís thoughts away from the vexatious subject.

considered as their most serious actions. ~ ~ Attraction is not a choice. ~ ~ I believe in human dignity as the source of national purpose, human liberty as the source of national action, the human heart as the source of national compassion, and in the human mind as the source of our invention and our ideas ~ ~ The sons of Judah have to choose that God may again choose them. The divine principle of our race is action, choice, resolved memory. ~ ~ Laziness may appear attractive,but work gives satisfaction. ~ ~ Conscience is the internal perception of the reaction of a particular wish operating within us ~ ~ Fascism is nothing but capitalist reaction. ~ ~ The more there are riots, the more repressive action will take place, and the more we face the danger of a right-wing takeover and eventually a fascist society. ~ ~ You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know.
