“When creativity has become your habit; when you've learned to manage time, resources, expectations, and the demands of others; when you understand the value and place of validation, continuity, and purity of purpose, then you're on the way to an artist's ultimate goal; the achievement of mastery.” WayPurposeArtistValuesGoalCreativityHabitDemandAchievementExpectationsResourcesUltimateManagePurityMasteryContinuityValidationUltimate Goal Author:Twyla Tharp
“The Great Society is a place where every child can find knowledge to enrich his mind and to enlarge his talents. It is a place where the city of man serves not only the needs of the body and the demands of commerce but the desire for beauty and the hunger for community. It is a place where men are more concerned with the quality of their goals than the quantity of their goods.” MenNeedsMindChildrenBodyDesireGoalPresidentCommunityCitiesQualityBeautyTalentDemandConcernedHungerPresidentialGoodsQuantityCommerceGreat Society Author:Lyndon B.

“Abortion on demand is the ultimate State tyranny; the State simply declares that certain classes of human beings are not persons, and therefore not entitled to the protection of the law. The State protects the 'right' of some people to kill others, just as the courts protected the 'property rights' of slave masters in their slaves. Moreover, by this method the State achieves a goal common to all totalitarian regimes: it sets us against each other, so that our energies are spent in the struggle between State-created classes, rather than in freeing all individuals from the State.” PeopleHumansPersonsStatesLawCertainIndividualEnergyGoalHuman BeingsCommonClassStruggleRightsAchieveMastersProtectDemandUltimateMethodCourtPropertySlaveProtectionTyrannyAbortionRegimesProtectedEntitledProperty RightsTotalitarian Regimes Author:Ron Paul

“The terror in which English capitalists now stand of organized proletarian resistance gives to the naturally protected craft organizations the power to receive the wages they demand. They act as they have been trained to act by capitalist society, which denies the doctrine of the Just Price, which proclaims work to be an evil and the goal of human endeavor to be the avoidance of it; which puts it up as an ideal that individuals should get as much money as they possibly can out of their fellows by any means in their power.” GivingShouldHumansMeanHas BeensWisdomEvilPoliticsIndividualGoalEconomyDemandIdealsOrganizationFellowsTerrorDenyResistanceDoctrineCraftsOrganizedLiberalismEndeavorCapitalistProtectedWagesAvoidance Author:Hilaire Belloc

“Always underdress. The goal is not to look as if you made an effort for the particular event.

“Each era invents its own child. Over the past 500 years, conceptions of the child changed gradually from an ill-formed adult who must be subjugated to society's goals to a precious being who must be protected from unreasonable social demands.
