The Equation For Ego Is: One Over

For Me A Simple Message, To Think And Act With Courage, Independence And Imagination.

When I Examine Myself And My Methods Of Thought, I Come To The Conclusion That The Gift Of Fantasy Has Meant More To Me Than My Talent For Absorbing Positive Knowledge. (reading This Makes Me Wonder How Much Sooner Man Could Have Walked On The Moon... Had We Listened To A Child's Fantasies. It Is Truly A Pity That So Many Lose Their Gift Of Imagination To The Steady Hum Of The Status Quo.)

This Subject Brings Me To That Vilest Offspring Of The Herd Mind -- The Odious Militia. The Man Who Enjoys Marching In Line And File To The Strains Of Music Falls Below My Contempt; He Received His Great Brain By Mistake -- The Spinal Cord Would Have Been Amply Sufficient. This Heroism At Command, This Senseless Violence, This Accursed Bombast Of Patriotism -- How Intensely I Despise Them! War Is Low And Despicable, And I Had Rather Be Smitten To Shreds Than Participate In Such Doings.

...and Knowledge Is One Of The Finest Attributes Of Man - Though Often It Is Most Loudly Voiced By Those Who Strive For It The Least.

The World Is Not Threatened By Evil People, But By Those Who Allow Evil To Take Place.
