Truth Seldom Is Pleasant; It Is Almost

If Only It Were All So Simple! If Only There Were Evil People Somewhere Insidiously Committing Evil Deeds, And It Were Necessary Only To Separate Them From The Rest Of Us And Destroy Them. But The Line Dividing Good And Evil Cuts Through The Heart Of Every Human Being. And Who Is Willing To Destroy A Piece Of His Own Heart?

It Is Almost Always Impossible To Evaluate At The Time Events Which You Have Already Experienced, And To Understand Their Meaning With The Guidance Of Their Effects. All The More Unpredictable And Surprising To Us Will Be The Course Of Future Events.

The Intellectual Is Not Defined By Professional Group And Type Of Occupation. Nor Are Good Upbringing And A Good Family Enough In Themselves To Produce An Intellectual. An Intellectual Is A Person Whose Interest In And Preoccupation With The Spiritual Side Of Life Are Insistent And Constant And Not Forced By External Circumstances, Even Flying In The Face Of Them. An Intellectual Is A Person Whose Thought Is Nonimitative.

The Price Of Cowardice Will Only Be Evil. We Shall Reap Courage And Victory Only When We Dare To Make Sacrifices.

You Know The Words From The Bible: 'build Not On Sand, But On Rock....' Tyrant Leaders Respect Only Firmness...and Laugh At Persons Who Give In To Them.
