“A tendency to resume the same mode of action at stated times is peculiarly the characteristic of the nervous system; and on this account regularity is of great consequence in exercising the moral and intellectual power. All nervous diseases have a marked tendency to observe regular periods; and the natural inclination to sleep at the approach of night is another instance of the same fact.” FactsActionNightNaturalSleepMoralHabitPeriodsExerciseDiseaseApproachIntellectualConsequenceAccountsTendenciesInstanceNervousCharacteristicsInclinationNervous SystemResumesRegularity Author:George Combe

“Wars results in immediate deaths and destruction, but the environmental consequences can last hundreds, often thousands of years. And it is not just war itself that undermines our life support system, but also the research and development, military exercises and general preparations for battle that are carried out on a daily basis in most parts of the world. The majority of this pre-war activity takes place without the benefit of civilian scrutiny and therefore we are unaware of some of what is being done to our environment in the name of 'security.” WorldYearsWarDoneLastsNamesResultsSupportEnvironmentOur LivesSecurityMilitaryDevelopmentExerciseBattleActivityBenefitsResearchConsequenceDestructionBasesMajorityEnvironmentalPreparationCiviliansOur EnvironmentScrutinyBeing DoneResearch And DevelopmentSupport SystemsJust War Book:Planet Earth: The Latest Weapon of War Source: Planet Earth: The Latest Weapon of War

“One way we exercise political freedom is to vote for the candidate of our choice. Another way is to use our money to try to persuade other voters to make a similar choice - that is, to contribute to our candidate's campaign. If either of these freedoms is violated, the consequences are very grave not only for the individual voter and contributor, but for the society whose free political processes depend on a wide distribution of political power.” IfsWayTryingUsePoliticalChoicesIndividualProcessDependsExerciseConsequenceVoteWideCampaignsGravesOne WayCandidatesVotersDistributionAnother WayPolitical PowerOur ChoicesContributorsPolitical Freedom Author:Barry Goldwater

“One was a horrible case called Oliphant v. Suquamish Indian Tribe which denied tribes the right to criminally prosecute non-Indians who commit crimes on their reservations. That decision has had horrible consequences for law enforcement on Indian reservations. But in that opinion Justice William Rehnquist cites language from the 1830s to explain why whites didn't trust tribes to exercise criminal jurisdiction. They were savages.” LanguageJusticeDecisionOpinionCrimeExerciseConsequenceHorribleCommitLaw EnforcementCiting Author:Robert A. Williams, Jr.

“When I look back on the past two decades of my journey today, I guess many people would interpret my artistic practice as a kind of cross-media attempt. I have indeed tried many different kinds of media over the past 20 years and collaborated in many different ways with people from many different fields. However, I like to understand this process as a kind of compensation for having once lost my "right of choice," an exercise of free choice and taking responsibility for any consequences that might result from it.

“So you wish to conquer in the Olympic Games, my friend? And I, too... But first mark the conditions and the consequences. You will have to put yourself under discipline; to eat by rule, to avoid cakes and sweetmeats; to take exercise at the appointed hour whether you like it or not, in cold and heat; to abstain from cold drinks and wine at your will. Then, in the conflict itself you are likely enough to dislocate your wrist or twist your ankle, to swallow a great deal of dust, to be severely thrashed, and after all of these things, to be defeated.” FirstsEnoughGamesWishHoursDealsConditionsColdDisciplineExerciseDrinkConflictMy FriendsConsequenceMarkWineDustConquerHeatCakeDefeatedTwistsYou Like ItWristsAnklesOlympic GamesGreat Sports Author:Epictetus
