“Once a man has tasted freedom he will never be content to be a slave. That is why I believe that this frightfulness we see everywhere today is only temporary. Tomorrow will be better for as long as America keeps alive the ideals of freedom and a better life. All men will want to be free and share our way of life. There must be so much that I should have said, but haven't. What I will say now is just what most of us are probably thinking every day. I thank God and America for the right to live and raise my family under the flag of tolerance, democracy and freedom.” ThinkingMenWayWantShouldBelieveLongSaidTodayAmericaI BelieveFreedomDemocracyAliveShareHavensTomorrowIdealsMy FamilyShould HaveRaisesSlaveToleranceTemporaryThank GodFlagsBetter LifeBe A SlaveTomorrow Will Be Better Author:Walt Disney
“There's one bright spot in the generally gloomy picture know as the Pacific Conflict Zone. According to my calculations, by the year 2500 or so we should have killed off every last member of our species who is stupid enough to take part in so futile a pastime as this war between "ideals," and with luck they won't have left their genes behind because they'll typically have been killed at an age when society thinks they're too young to assume the responsibility of childbearing. After that we may get some peace and quiet for a change.” ThinkingKnowsShouldYearsMayHas BeensWarEnoughAgeLastsYoungLeftBehindsResponsibilityStupidQuietConflictMembersIdealsShould HaveLuckAssumingSpeciesSpotsZoneGenesCalculationsPacificGloomyPastimePeace And QuietChildbearing Author:John Brunner

“No university ought to be merely a national institution....The universities should have their common ideals, they should have their common obligations toward each other. They should be independent of the governments of the countries in which they are situated. They should not be institutions for the training of an efficient bureaucracy, or for equipping scientists to get the better of foreign scientists; they should stand for the preservation of learning, for the pursuit of truth, and in so far as men are capable of it, the attainment of wisdom.” MenShouldCountryGovernmentCommonOughtCapableTrainingIdealsShould HaveScientistIndependentInstitutionsUniversityPursuitObligationEfficientPreservationBureaucracyAttainment Author:T.

“An aimless life is always a troubled life. Every individual should have an aim. But do not forget that the quality of your aim will depend the quality of your life. Your aim should be high and wide, generous and disinterested; this will make your life precious to yourself and to others. Whatever your ideal, it cannot be perfectly realized unless you have realized perfection in yourself.” ShouldLife IsIndividualForgetQualityDependsIdealsPerfectionShould HaveAimWideGenerousDisinterestedAimless Life Author:Sri Aurobindo
“This present system by which industry is motivated exclusively by the quest for maximal profits - though it may have helped a great deal to develop, to industrialize our country so rapidly and so successfully - now it's clearly passed its usefulness.

“Quite often I have been faced with people who were praised and admired for their talents and their achievements... According to prevailing attitudes, these people-the pride and joy of their parents-should have had a strong and stable sense of self-assurance. But the case is exactly the opposite... Whenever they suddenly get the feeling they have failed to live up to some ideal image or have not measured up to some standard, then they are plagued by anxiety or deep feelings of guilt and shame. What are the reasons for such disturbances in these competent, accomplished people?” PeopleShouldHas BeensSelfReasonFeelingsJoyStrongParentAttitudeCasesTalentPrideAchievementAnxietyStandardsIdealsShould HaveOppositesShameGuiltAccomplishedStableAssuranceCompetentSense Of SelfPrevailingDisturbanceSelf AssuranceDeep Feeling Author:Alice Miller
