“To me, this is from a Buddhist perspective or whatever, sometimes people who are working out their political beliefs, they can rage against the man, and yet at the same time can be oblivious to their own way of stepping on the foot of the person right next to them.” PeopleMenWayPersonsSometimesPoliticalNextBeliefFeetHe ManPerspectiveWork OutRageBuddhistObliviousPolitical Beliefs Author:Mike White

“Under the Obama regime, the president and his allies are intentional in pursuing these conflicts from the perspective that you must sacrifice your most sacred beliefs to government the instant you start a business.

“Historically the belief in heaven and the belief in utopia are like compensatory buckets in a well: when one goes down the other comes up. When the classic religions decayed, communistic agitation rose in Athens (430 B.C.), and revolution began in Rome (133 B.C.); when these movements failed, resurrection faiths succeeded, culminating in Christianity; when, in our eighteenth century, Christian belief weakened, communism reappeared. In this perspective the future of religion is secure.” WellsChristianReligionBeliefHeavenChristianityCenturyMovementRevolutionPerspectiveRoseCome UpSecureCommunismClassicRomeResurrectionUtopiaBucketsAgitationAthens Author:Will Durant
“William Graebner's brilliant analysis of America's struggles over the meaning of Patty Hearst gives us not only new perspectives on the 1970s, on Americans' fundamental understandings of their world in a bicentennial year that offered little to celebrate, but also on the longing for heroism and the desire for belief in free will that Graebner believes structured the rise of Reagan-era conservatism. This is a masterful work of cultural history.” WorldGivingYearsBelieveLittlesAmericaDesireBeliefUnderstandingStrugglePerspectiveFundamentalsLongingBrilliantCelebrateErasAnalysisFree WillHeroismConservatismNew Perspective Author:Beth Bailey
