Men Would Rather Be Starving And Free

Believing In Gods Always Causes Confusion.

Endurance Of Inescapable Sorrow Is Something Which Has To Be Learned Alone. And Only To Endure Is Not Enough. Endurance Can Be A Harsh And Bitter Root In One's Life, Bearing Poisonous And Gloomy Fruit, Destroying Other Lives. Endurance Is Only The Beginning. There Must Be Acceptance And The Knowledge That Sorrow Fully Accepted Brings Its Own Gifts. For There Is An Alchemy In Sorrow. It Can Be Transmuted Into Wisdom, Which, If It Does Not Bring Joy, Can Yet Bring Happiness.

Perhaps One Has To Be Very Old Before One Learns To Be Amused Rather Than Shocked.

None Who Have Always Been Free Can Understand The Terrible Fascinating Power Of The Hope Of Freedom To Those Who Are Not Free.

It Is Better To Learn Early Of The Inevitable Depths, For Then Sorrow And Death Can Take Their Proper Place In Life, And One Is Not Afraid.
