Quote by Thich Nhat Hanh

“The revolution of 1963 against Diem brought a new vitality to Vietnam, indicating that the people had the power to overturn a government that they disapproved of, but this vitality has been dissipated by the fact that the overwhelming power of the United States is directed against any faction in South Vietnam that expresses itself as having a will for peace.”

“The routes of life are not easy enough. To make a drama out of a crisis never works, it complicates the movements furher.

Respect yourself first and then others. Self-reflect. And.. Meditate with the Moon.”

Why doesn't the rest of the world stand up for a change instead of coverting their own reflection? We are a world of slaves who are too afraid to call their masters out. Mums, dads, grandparents, children need to stand up and fight, not with guns but with determination to start the world in a new direction,”
