“It has been well said that the food one consumes determines one's thoughts. By eating the flesh of various animals, the qualities of these animals are imbibed.

This leads to demonic tendencies, besides committing the sin of inflicting cruelty on animals.” HumansWellsHas BeensSaidHuman BeingsSinAnimalQualityFiveElementsEatingDetermineVariousFleshCrueltyTendenciesDemonicWell SaidFive Elements Author:Sathya Sai Baba
“I think the only way one can really determine whether extremism in the defense of liberty is justified, is not to approach it as an american or a european or an African or an Asian, but as a human being. If we look upon it as different types, immediately we begin to think in terms of extremism being good for one and bad for another, or bad for one and good for another. But if we look upon it, if we look upon ourselves as human beings, I doubt that anyone will deny that extremism in defense of liberty, the liberty of any human being, is no vice.” IfsThinkingWayHumansLooksDifferentTermHuman BeingsLibertyDoubtTypeApproachDetermineDenyDefenseBe GoodLook UpJustifiedAsianExtremism Author:Malcolm X

“We as a nation need to be reeducated about the necessary and sufficient conditions for making human beings human.

“Egalitarians create the most dangerous inequality of all - inequality of power. Allowing politicians to determine what all other human beings will be allowed to earn is one of the most reckless gambles imaginable.
