“The skeptic says that the believer has lost his own mind under God. On the contrary, it is the people who follow God who are most like his children, who willingly and consciously walk in his will; but those who oppose him oppose him vainly and at their own expense, and, figuratively, seem to be more like his tools. They don't diminish his glory, but instead he still manages to use them in ways of unconsciously carrying out his will.” PeopleWayMindChildrenStillsUseSeemsLostWalksGloryToolsContraryBelieverManageExpensesDiminishSkeptic Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy

“If we're ever going to get the world back on a natural footing, back in tune with natural rhythyms, if we're going to nurture the Earth and protect it and have fun with it and learn from it - which is what mothers do with their children - then we've got to put technology (an aggressive masculine system) in its proper place, which is that of a tool to be used sparingly, joyfully, gently and only in the fullest cooperation with nature. Nature must govern technology, not the other way around.” IfsWorldWayChildrenEarthUsedMotherFunNaturalTechnologyProtectToolsHaving FunTunesCooperationAggressiveNurtureMasculineCowgirls Author:Tom Robbins
“I am dedicating the majority of my wealth to improving education. It is the key to the survival of the human race. We have to plan for our collective future - and the first step begins with the social, emotional, and intellectual tools we provide to our children. As humans, our greatest tool for survival is our ability to think and to adapt - as educators, storytellers, and communicators our responsibility is to continue to do so.” ThinkingFirstsHumansChildrenSocialWealthAbilityRaceResponsibilityStepsPlansEmotionalKeysSurvivalIntellectualToolsOur ChildrenMajorityHuman RaceCollectivesFirst StepsImprovingStorytellerEducatorCommunicators Author:George Lucas
“We have restricted humans from giving 'free' food to bears and dolphins because we know that such feeding would make them dependent and lead to their extinction. But when it comes to our own species, we have difficulty seeing the connection between short-term kindness and long-term cruelty; we give women money to have more children, making them more dependent with each child and discouraging them from developing the tools to fend for themselves. The real discrimination against women, then, is 'free feeding'.” KnowsGivingHumansChildrenLongRealTermKindnessSeeingBearsToolsConnectionsDifficultySpeciesDiscriminationCrueltyDevelopingLong TermDependentFeedingExtinctionShort TermDiscouragingDolphinsFree Food Book:The Myth of Male Power: Why Men Are the Disposable Sex Source: The Myth of Male Power: Why Men Are the Disposable Sex
