“don’t believe the war is simply the work of politicians and capitalists. Oh no, the common man is every bit as guilty; otherwise, people and nations would have re- belled long ago! There’s a destructive urge in people, the urge to rage, murder and kill. And until all of humanity, without exception, undergoes a metamorphosis, wars will continue to be waged, and everything that has been carefully built up, cultivated and grown will be cut down and destroyed, only to start allover again!” PeopleMenBelieveLongHas BeensWarHumanityNationsBitsCommonCuttingPoliticianBuiltMurderDown AndDon't BelieveRageDestroyedGuiltyDestructiveExceptionUrgesCapitalistLong AgoCommon ManMetamorphosis Author:Anne Frank

“The agricultural co-operative movement has been a severe ideological and political struggle from the very beginning. No cooperative can be established without going through such a struggle. Before a brand-new social system can be built on the site of the old, the site must be swept clean. Invariably, remnants of old ideas reflecting the old system remain in people's minds for a long time, and they do not easily give way. After a co-operative is established, it must go through many more struggles before it can be consolidated. Even then, the moment it relaxes its efforts it may collapse.” PeopleWayGivingMindMayLongHas BeensIdeasMomentsPoliticalSocialEffortStruggleMovementLong TimeBuiltCleanSocialismBrandsCommunismRelaxCollapseSiteSevereReflectingIdeologicalBrand NewCooperativesSocial SystemsRemnantsOld IdeasPolitical Struggle Book:Quotations from Chairman Mao Tsetung Source: Quotations from Chairman Mao Tsetung
“We would labor earnestly to raise a believer in salvation by free will into a believer in salvation by grace, for we long to see all religious teaching built upon the solid rock of truth and not upon the sand of imagination. At the same time, our grand object is not the revision of opinions, but the regeneration of natures. We should bring men to Christ, not to our own particular views of Christianity.” MenShouldLongChristImaginationReligiousViewsChristianityOpinionGraceTeachingRocksObjectsParticularBuiltLaborRaisesSalvationBelieverSandFree WillSanctificationRevisionRegeneration Book:Select Works Source: Select Works
“Love makes us instinctively reach out to God and other people. Lust, on the other hand, is anything but godly and celebrates self-indulgence. Love comes with open hands and open heart; lust comes with only an open appetite. These are just some of the reasons that prostituting the true meaning of love-either with imagination or another person-is so destructive. It destroys that which is second only to our faith in God-namely, faith in those we love. It shakes the pillars of trust upon which present-or future-love is built, and it takes a long time to rebuild that trust when it is lost.” PeopleHeartPersonsLongSelfReasonHandsLostImaginationLove IsLong TimeBuiltAddictionLustCelebrateShakesDestructiveAppetiteReach OutFaith In GodGodlyIndulgencePillarsOpen HeartThose We LoveTrue MeaningSelf IndulgenceMeaning Of LoveTrue Meaning Of LoveFuture Love Author:Jeffrey R.

“When Maryam Babangida and Mariam Abacha built the Women Centre and the National Hospital they did not carry the buildings when they left government. I will not go with the peace mission building.
