Quote by George Dibbern

“..our trip is only a means to an end; the adventure lies in the sail through the ocean of the spirit, to find a sea (see) way to God. No fear must I have. I must sail into the unknown, and as crew I have lawbreakers, criminals--my passions, lusts, lies, laziness, and many other handicaps; but one power I have also, a heart full of warm love, love for men, for the world, for beauty, purity, truth, which we call God. Thus it is; and so let come what will. And now may the bird of my longing spread its wings to a flight across the big ocean.....”

“We have to live collectively again, redefining contemporary political philosophy and revolutionary art. Perhaps the creative teams of friends, the affinity groups, the occupied parks, the squats and the social centers can become points for bringing alive all those dreams we lost in the selfishness of our small, insignificant, individual illusions.

And then we will link our daily lives with the most magical secret desires to transform the streets of Metropolis in precious moments of freedom and happiness.”

“I Exist for I Dissolve in All (Sonnet 2265) My brain is multilingual, my heart is multicultural, my life is multidimensional, I exist for I dissolve in all. You barely speak one language, ramble doctrines from one dead book, can't see beyond the customs of your tribe, yet you say, your truth is the cosmic truth! Fanaticism is compensation for insecurity, supremacy is compensation for inferiority. Over a hundred books, thousands of sonnets, half a thousand limericks, half a thousand free verse poems, yet I still say, I'm incomplete.”

“One night, not long after signing over his inheritance, Nate said something to a customer that I overheard and would never forget. He said that he'd finally realized that he had never been the puppeteer, controlling his own destiny. Instead, he now realized that black people were just puppets on strings. The strings were so long that they reached far above them - so far out of their vision that they never saw or knew who the puppet masters were. He only knew that when they yanked at the strings and said to dance, he had no choice but to dance.”

“Free will cannot exist without truth. Without an understanding of how our financial system is designed to anchor both individuals and the collective in ego consciousness, it is difficult to claim we have exercised conscious choice or true free will our entire lives.”
