“Living beings have this in common; the breath of life.”
“Living beings must take into account both human savagery and human congeniality. The stupendous irrationality and meanness that underlies much of human behavior contrasted with the love and compassion that people unselfishly exhibit makes ordinary life both appalling and fascinating. Using all available knowledge, we must grope our way through the bizarre twilight zone cast while living amongst the great apes, an unpredictable species that is capable of displaying both immense charity and engaging in the most outrageously inhuman actions imaginable. The blessed oddity of human behavior prompts an immense swath of tolerance and produces a wellspring of sympathy for our fellow humans. The radiant minds of history’s great thinkers infused with the quick of experience of today’s perceptive students of life will assist light a pathway though the byzantine jungle for the preeminent torch bearers of tomorrow to claw through. Our collective and interweaved journey through this wrinkle of time shall produce the backdrop of the story of the next generation, a unique tale paying tribute to these thunderous times.”

“Living by the highest possible standards means opening the doors of the highest truths through the possible means. To live by the sheer desire or “will to power” means to open the labyrinths of personal truths and thoughts that we camouflage as facts and truths themselves. Only the desire and will to goodness can be the model for obtaining the highest truths possible. In that way, the highest obtainable power comes not from the will to power but from the will to truth itself, representing the will to goodness and wisdom obtained in such a manner.”
