The most depressing thing about growing up is watching people lose their sense of spontaneity. They think they’re becoming mature and responsible, but really they’re just becoming afraid.

I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.

R. Fulghum (via nirvikalpa)

Step outside of yourself, you’re suddenly uninfluenced by a tremendous number of ridges which match your wavelength. You all of a sudden are freer to think, you’re freer to be and your beingness picks up - markedly picks up. But you’re still you. You’re nobody else but you. The horrible part of it is, you never will be. Now, what are the essential elements of you, then?

 L. Ron Hubbard

No man can put a chain about the ankle of his fellow man without at last finding the other end fastened about his own neck.

See I’m a young soul in this very strange world Hoping I could learn a bit ‘bout what is true and fake But why all this hate? try to communicate Finding trust and love is not always easy to make

I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.

Groucho Marx (via socialistscum)

Optimism is a strategy for making a better future. Because unless you believe that the future can be better, it’s unlikely you will step up and take responsibility for making it so. If you assume that there’s no hope, you guarantee that there will be no hope. If you assume that there is an instinct for freedom, there are opportunities to change things, there’s a chance you may contribute to making a better world. The choice is yours.

Noam Chomsky (via nirvikalpa)

(via shawomanist)

Compassion is not religious business, it is human business, it is not luxury, it is essential for our own peace and mental stability, it is essential for human survival.

Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.

What is it that binds you?
You are not bound by any chains now.
Is it just the thought that you are bound that binds you?
Mental chains can only be broken by mental effort.

Interchanging mind control. Come let the revolution takes its toll. If you could flick the switch and open your third eye, you’d see that we should never be afraid to die
So come on.
