“Well, we have the leverage in the sense that we supply all the wherewithal...or a major part of the wherewithal to finance or to pay for everything Israel does. We don't have any leverage in the sense that Israel controls the Senate. The Senate is at least...a subservient, in my opinion, much too much. We should be more concerned about the United States' interest, rather than doing the bidding of Israel. This is a most unusual development.” ShouldWellsDoeStatesInterestUnitedPayOpinionUnited StatesToo MuchDevelopmentMajorsConcernedJewIsraelFinanceUnusualSenateBiddingSubservient Author:J.

“Buddhists don't feel that enlightenment is particularly unusual. We feel that it's the natural state. Enlightenment simply means perceiving life directly as it is in all of its infinite, ever changing wonder, in all of its varied, myriad states of mind or as pari-nirvana, or whatever.” FeelsMindMeanStatesNaturalWonderEnlightenmentInfiniteBuddhistState Of MindUnusual Author:Frederick Lenz
“Towards the outside, at any rate, the ego seems to maintain clear and sharp lines of demarcation. There is only one state -- admittedly an unusual state, but not one that can be stigmatized as pathological -- in which it does not do this. At the height of being in love the boundary between ego and object threatens to melt away. Against all the evidence of his senses, a man who is in love declares that "I" and "you" are one, and is prepared to behave as if it were a fact.” IfsMenLoveDoeStatesFactsSeemsLinesClearObjectsEgoEvidencePreparedRateSensesBoundariesHeightBehaveUnusualBeing In Love Book:The standard edition of the complete psychological works of Sigmund Freud Source: The standard edition of the complete psychological works of Sigmund Freud
