“Mind of A Human (The Sonnet) My kind of dance is the dance of inclusion, A dance that can't be contained with labels. My kind of art is the art of assimilation, An art that is beyond all intellectual fables. My kind of science is the science of revolution, A science that is incorruptible by bigotry. My kind of faith is the faith in egalitarianism, A faith that is untainted by bookish crookery. My kind of economics is the economics of equality, An economics guided by conscience not greed. My kind of politics is the politics of sanity, A politics that serves all beyond the politician's need. I dream of a progress that is not regress in disguise. Wielding warmth and reason we’ll truly rise.”

“Yes, because just what I wanted was to make a friend of a rich enclave girl so I could routinely rub my face around in all the luxuries I couldn’t have, all of which were in fact quite nice even if they didn’t measure up to the things I’d chosen in their place. And if Chloe Rasmussen turned out to be an actual decent person and a real friend, that would mean the things I didn’t have weren’t necessarily incompatible with the things I really cared about, and how exactly I was meant to put that together without being discontented all the time, I didn’t see, only I was reasonably certain that saying no and on your way now would in fact make me rude and stuck-up after all, just in a quixotic and contrary way. “Yeah, all right,”

“There are no constraints in Life when you learn to flow with it. Flowing is an important quality to be embraced. It is an art. You can and must learn it. When you are flowing with Life, you are not resisting it; therefore, there is no conflict. Whatever is, you are accepting it and are going with the flow of Life. This does not mean you must not work towards changing what you don’t like about your Life. It means that while you are working on changing your current reality, you are willing to be led by the process of Life. This is a beautiful state to be in – contentment, inner peace and Happiness are guaranteed!”

“Acceptance of the present moment releases the needless suffering of exhaustion and frustration. Acceptance does not mean we like what is happening or that we do not have any goals for the future. Acceptance helps to stop the multiplication of scary mind stories – scary thoughts. Acceptance helps to relieve the stress of the moment so that we can then deal with the situation from our inner strength and bring grander solutions.”

“This is where renunciation enters the picture--renunciation of the hope that our experience could be different, renunciation of the hope that we could be better. The Buddhist monastic rules that advise renouncing liquor, renouncing sex, and so on are not pointing out that those things are inherently bad or immoral, but that we use them as babysitters. We use them as a way to escape; we use them to try to get comfort and to distract ourselves. The real thing that we renounce is the tenacious hope that we could be saved from being who we are. Renunciation is a teaching to inspire us to investigate what's happening every time we grab something because we can't stand to face what's coming.”
