When people can get support without exercising their own abilities to discover and respond to opportunities for earning income, those abilities atrophy. People forget - or never learn in the first place - how to help themselves, and eventually some of them simply accept their helplessness.”

His feeling of power, his will to power, his courage, his pride - they decline with the ugly, they increase with the beautiful.”

“Reclaim our environment from those who would destroy it with their predatory economic behavior.”
“Reclaim The Planet (The Sonnet)
Monsters spread their tentacles,
Because the masters are asleep.
Puny hyenas rule the world,
When the tigers are asleep.
Enough with pleading, to hell with decency!
Monsters only understand the language of roar.
When the predator comes to feast on your family,
Will you happily make way for them to pleasure more?
Doesn't the thought boil your blood – good, it should!
It means that your backbone is still alive.
Now turn all your attention on your every pore,
Feel through your veins the surge of might.
No more pleading,
no more begging to be treated as humans!
It's time for the humans to reclaim the planet
from the inhumans!”
