“I perceived that I was on a little round grain of rock and metal, filmed with water and with air, whirling in sunlight and darkness. And on the skin of that little grain all the swarms of men, generation by generation, had lived in labour and blindness, with intermittent joy and intermittent lucidity of spirit. And all their history, with its folk-wanderings, its empires, its philosophies, its proud sciences, its social revolutions, its increasing hunger for community, was but a flicker in one day of the lives of the stars.” MenLittlesPhilosophyJoySpiritSocialStarsWaterCommunityDarknessGenerationsAirRocksRevolutionProudOne DaySkinsRoundsHungerFolksWanderEmpiresLabourMetalsGrainSunlightBlindnessLight And DarknessLight And DarkFlickerSwarmsLuciditySocial RevolutionOlafIntermittent Book:To the End of Time Source: To the End of Time
“Revolution is the only thing, the only power, that ever worked out freedom for any people. The powers that have ruled long and learned to love ruling, will never give up that prerogative until they must, till they see the certainty of overthrow and destruction if they do not. To plant-to revolutionize-these are the twin stars that have ruled our pathway. What have we then to dread in the word Revolution-we, the children of rebels!” PeopleIfsGivingChildrenLongStarsRevolutionGiving UpDestructionPlantCertaintyRebelDreadTwinsRulingNever Giving UpPathwaysPrerogative Author:Wendell Phillips
