“If I were to envy any persons on this planet, it would be mountain hermits. You often hear old platitudes such as, 'Speak out. Be heard.' On the contrary, a breath of fresh air would be something like: 'Silence, think for at least 15 minutes, and then maybe speak out.” IfsThinkingPersonsWould BeSpeakSilenceHeardAirMinutesPlanetsMountainBreathsEnvyContrarySpeaks OutFresh AirHermitsPlatitudes Book:Killosophy Source: Killosophy
“Our planet consists largely of lumps of fall-out from a star-sized hydrogen bomb. Within our bodies, no less than three million atoms rendered unstable in that event still erupt every minute, releasing a tiny fraction of the energy stored from that fierce fire of long ago.” LongStillsBodyFallThreeEnergyStarsMillionsFireMinutesEventsPlanetsTinyBombsAtomsFierceLong AgoOur PlanetFractionsUnstableLumpsHydrogenHydrogen Bomb Author:James Lovelock

“On a small planet, where minute follows minute, day follows day, year follows year, where tradition marches on with a deafening, orderly beat -sometimes the order is disturbed by a dreamer, an artist, a scribbler - sometimes the beat is changed one person at a time.” YearsPersonsSometimesArtistOrderMinutesChangedPlanetsBeatsTraditionMarchDreamerDisturbedOrderly Author:Mary E.

“If I found myself alone on planet Earth, no other humans, I would have sex with a monkey in like two minutes. Two minutes. That's really not long enough to be sure you're alone on the Earth, even.

“We need to put a price on carbon, and that's what cap-and-trade does and that's also what a CO2 tax does. As long as our current valuation in the marketplace tells us every minute of every day that it's perfectly all right to dump 90 million tons of global warming into the thin atmosphere surrounding the planet every 24 hours as if that atmosphere is an open sewer, then the individual actions are not going to solve the problem.” IfsNeedsLongDoeProblemActionIndividualHoursMillionsMinutesPlanetsTaxesTradeCurrentsSolveAtmosphereGlobal WarmingCarbonMarketplaceCapsDumpCo2SewersValuation Author:Al Gore
“When nuclear weapons were an elite club of five relatively sane world powers, the Left was convinced the planet was about to go ka-boom any minute, and the handful of us who survived would be walking in a nuclear winter wonderland. Now anyone with a few thousand bucks and an unlisted number in Islamabad in his Rolodex can get a nuke, and the Left couldn't care less.” WorldWould BeCareLeftNumbersFiveMinutesPlanetsWalkingThousandWeaponsWinterClubsConvincedNuclearElitesSaneNuclear WeaponsSurvivedHandfulBucksWonderlandNukesWorld PowerNuclear WinterIslamabad Author:Mark Steyn
“Unity Consciousness is the experience of the 7 billion plus people on the planet being moved by the same force, which is God. It is the awareness to see what we really are: One Living Being. However, this is a truth that really can't be explained with words; the minute you say it, it is no longer truth.” PeopleForceConsciousnessMinutesAwarenessPlanetsMovedUnityBillionsPlus Author:Miguel Angel Ruiz
