“We had many books and pictures... my parents' way of life doubtless left a lasting impression on me. They created an atmosphere in which a certain kind of freedom could exist.

“When I look over my past, I see that the stages in my life are like the phases of the moon. I've had periods where I was the waxing gibbous: fat with wealth and success. There have been other seasons when my happiness was like the waning crescent and I watched my joy fade away slowly, merging with the atmosphere around me as if it never existed. Then I felt as if I was left with nothing more than an illusion, but happiness returns in time and glows once more in corpulent fullness. It's time that makes the difference.” IfsLooksHas BeensPastJoyLeftFeltDifferencesWealthStageReturnPeriodsMoonIllusionSeasonsFatsAtmosphereFadesPhasesFullnessMy PastFade AwayMergingCrescentWaxingWealth And SuccessPhases Of The Moon Author:Amy Neftzger

“Standing on the Moon looking back at Earth - this lovely place you just came from - you see all the colours, and you know what they represent. Having left the water planet, with all that water brings to Earth in terms of colour and abudance life, the absence of water and atmosphere on the desolate surface of the Moon gives rise to a stark contrast.” KnowsGivingEarthLeftTermWaterPlanetsMoonStandingSurfaceAbsenceLovelyAtmosphereColourContrastLooking BackStarksDesolate Author:Buzz Aldrin
“The people who hanged Christ never, to do them justice, accused Him of being a bore - on the contrary; they thought Him too dynamic to be safe.

“If you work through the existing structures you are going to be corrupted. By working through political system that poisons the atmosphere, even the progressive organizations, you can see it even nowadays in the US, where people on the "Left" are all caught in the electoral campaign and get into fierce arguments about should we support this third party candidate or that third party candidate. This is a sort of little piece of evidence that suggests that when you get into working through electoral politics you begin to corrupt your ideals.” PeopleIfsShouldLittlesPoliticalLeftPartySupportPiecesEvidenceIdealsArgumentOrganizationThirdsStructureCaughtCampaignsAtmosphereCandidatesPoisonProgressiveFiercePolitical SystemsThird Parties Author:Howard Zinn
