“Ignorance has one virtue: persistence. It will insist through dogged persistence on leading others to follow its vision no matter how misguided. Ignorance will drive the world to the brink of failure and catastrophe and beyond into the abyss with arrogance and anger because wisdom is often too polite to fight. Wisdom doesn’t like to impose its will, but that is all ignorance understands—force over free will and choice. Sooner or later the world comes to its senses, but oh the damage that has been done.”

“GODMAN QUOTES 9 ***Testament of time*** Do not waste the time you cannot bring back. What you have done to be a waste is what you have wasted your effort on. Time is paramount in every periodic factor. You can’t afford to mend the time you could not afford to fix. Odd time is useful in another space…know this and know peace. Work you have done to save your time is the time you have gained by good work. Quit excuses and you will find a better excuse. He who doesn’t know the importance of time doesn’t know his worse enemy. Time factor judges other factor at the end of all projects. Demand time in every work and you will be able to measure the work with precise duration.”
