“With the frenzied pace in our own country, with the degenerating school system, with a crime rate that rises 30% a year, and with politicians that seem more interested in posturing than in governing, it has become more difficult, or should I say challenging, to achieve that inner symbiosis with life.” ShouldYearsCountrySeemsSchoolHumanityDifficultChallengesAchieveCrimeBuddhismPoliticianRatePaceShould IGoverningSchool SystemCrime RatesSymbiosis Author:Frederick Lenz
“These things are happening in large measure because of us. We in this country burn 25 percent of the world's fossil fuel, create 25 percent of the world's carbon dioxide.

“The question of crime is one of concern to everybody. But the position is that the security forces in our country for the last four decades did not concentrate on suppressing crime. Their main objective was to suppress, to crush political activity. And in the process, crime grew to unacceptable proportions. And criminals were able to form powerful syndicates, and they virtually took over the control of the life of the community in certain areas.” CountryAbleLastsFormPoliticalCertainForceProcessCommunityPowerfulFourSecurityCrimePositionGrewActivityAreasConcernDecadesCriminalsObjectivesOur CountryCrushProportionSuppressingSecurity ForcesSyndicate Author:Nelson Mandela
