“I know that there is one God in heaven, the Father of all humanity, and heaven is therefore one. I know that there is one sun in the sky, which gives light to all the world. As there is unity in God, and unity in the light, so is there unity in the principles of freedom. Wherever it is broken, wherever a shadow is cast upon the sunny rays of the sun of liberty, there is always danger of free principles everywhere in the world.” KnowsWorldGivingLightHumanityFatherHeavenLibertyPrinciplesSunSkyDangerBrokenShadowUnityCastsRaysSunny Author:Lajos Kossuth

“But as the old Confusion of tongues was laudable, when men who were of one language in wickedness and impiety, even as some now venture to be, were building the Tower; for by the confusion of their language the unity of their intention was broken up, and their undertaking destroyed; so much more worthy of praise is the present miraculous one. For being poured from One Spirit upon many men, it brings them again into harmony. And there is a diversity of Gifts, which stands in need of yet another Gift to discern which is the best, where all are praiseworthy.” MenNeedsSpiritLanguageBuildingBrokenDiversityPraiseHarmonyIntentionUnityWorthyTongueConfusionDestroyedTowersVentureWickednessMiraculousUndertakingsBroken UpPraiseworthy Author:Gregory of Nazianzus
“Hip-hop has crossed many boundaries and racial barriers, broken them down for people to come together, to listen to the music or come out of their own social ills in each of the countries that it has went to. Thanks to my traveling, and keeping up from place to place, and pushing our ideology - peace, love, unity, and having fun - it has worked.” PeopleCountryTogetherFunBrokenUnityBoundariesIdeologyThanksHaving FunBarriersPeace Love Author:Afrika Bambaataa
“A life is such a strange object, at one moment translucent, at another utterly opaque, an object I make with my own hands, an object imposed on me, an object for which the world provides the raw material and then steals it from me again, pulverized by events, scattered, broken, scored yet retaining its unity; how heavy it is and how inconsistent: this contradiction breeds many misunderstandings.” WorldMomentsHandsLife IsMy OwnEventsObjectsStrangeMaterialsBrokenUnityHeavyStealingContradictionMisunderstandingInconsistentRaw MaterialsRetainingOpaque Author:Simone de Beauvoir
“Literature, real literature, must not be gulped down like some potion which may be good for the heart or good for the brain—the brain, that stomach of the soul. Literature must be taken and broken to bits, pulled apart, squashed—then its lovely reek will be smelt in the hollow of the palm, it will be munched and rolled upon the tongue with relish; then, and only then, its rare flavor will be appreciated at its true worth and the broken and crushed parts will again come together in your mind and disclose the beauty of a unity to which you have contributed something of your own blood.” MindHeartMayRealSoulTogetherLiteratureBitsBrainTakenBloodBrokenUnityTongueBe GoodLovelyStomachPalmsFlavorAppreciatedHollowCrushedRelishTrue Worth Author:Vladimir Nabokov
