“Have you never wanted to do anything that was dangerous? Where should we be if no one tried to find out what lies beyond? Have you never wanted to look beyond the clouds and the stars, or to know what causes the trees to bud? And what changes the darkness into light? But if you talk like that, people call you crazy. Well, if I could discover just one of these things, what eternity is, for example, I wouldn't care if they did think I was crazy.” PeopleIfsThinkingKnowsShouldWellsLooksLightCareWantedLyingHopeStarsCausesDarknessTreeCrazyDangerousExampleDiscoveryEternityCloudsJust OneIf I CouldBud Author:Garrett Fort

Do you hover in between?” PeopleThinkingKnowsWellsHas BeensMightWhiteCasesTakenDangerousExampleDrinkRedBlueEmbraceFlagsTowersExclusiveYellingOxfordIvoryIvory TowerRed White And Blue Author:Lynne Truss

“I do not believe Federal Government fear me at all, they know the truth. They know I am not a dangerous person, they hold me as a hostage to discourage other people from possibly standing up to their valued system. In their minds, right or wrong the public is expected to lay down for them. You see examples of this, at the Ruby Ridge massacre and the Waco massacre, where they killed all those children and group members.” PeopleKnowsMindBelieveChildrenPersonsGovernmentGroupsDangerousExampleMembersStandingLaysExpectedFederal GovernmentDiscouragingHostageMassacresHold MeRubiesRidgesFear Me Author:Leonard Peltier
