“The truth then is, that the Russian Comintern is still confessedly engaged in endeavoring to foment war in order to facilitate revolution, and that one of its chief organizers, Lozovsky, has been installed as principal adviser to Molotov...A few months ago he wrote in the French publication, L Vie Ouvriere...that his chief aim in life is the overthrow of the existing order in the great Democracies.” Has BeensStillsWarLife IsOrderDemocracyRevolutionMonthsAimJewChiefsEngagedPrincipalPublicationFacilitateAdviserOrganizerMolotov Author:Denis Fahey

“So a war begins. Into a peace-time life, comes an announcement, a threat. A bomb drops somewhere, potential traitors are whisked off quietly to prison. And for some time, days, months, a year perhaps, life has a peace-time quality, into which war-like events intrude. But when a war has been going on for a long time, life is all war, every event has the quality of war, nothing of peace remains.” YearsLongHas BeensWarLife IsQualityEventsMonthsLong TimeRemainsPrisonThreatBombsTraitorAnnouncements Book:The Four-Gated City Source: The Four-Gated City
“Life is better than death. But death comes eventually to everyone. It is something which many in their prime may prefer not to think about. But at 89, I see no point in avoiding the question. What concerns me is: How do I go? Will the end comes swiftly, with a stroke in one of the coronary arteries? Or will it be a stroke in the mind that lays me out in bed for months, semi-comatose? Of the two, I prefer the quick one.” ThinkingMindMayTwoEndsLife IsMonthsBedConcernLaysPrimeStrokesAvoidingNo PointArteriesComatose Author:Lee Kuan Yew
“There's no destination. There's no getting anywhere. There's just the going. The key to life is to make the going really fun. Because people that are like, “If I just get to this, then boom!” And then they get there and there's this dawning of an afterwards. Whereas I'm just always in the going. And it's not a frantic going like, “I gotta keep going or I'm gonna go nuts!” I can not do anything for weeks or months if I need to and just sit and read books or watch movies. I'm just as fine consuming and absorbing new art as I am trying to make it. But it's all in the going.” PeopleIfsNeedsTryingArtI CanBookLife IsFunWatchesWeekKeysFineMonthsDestinationKeep GoingNutsCan NotConsumingAbsorbingFranticWatch Movie Author:Patton Oswalt
