Involvement Quotes - Page 4

• Desde muy pronto, aprendí de la intelectualidad rusa que el único sentido de la vida reside en la participación consciente en la creación de la historia. Cuanto más pienso en ello, más profundamente cierto me parece. De ello se deduce que uno debe oponerse activamente a todo lo que empequeñece al hombre e implicarse en todas las luchas que tienden a liberarlo y engrandecerlo. Este imperativo categórico no disminuye en absoluto por el hecho de que tal implicación esté inevitablemente manchada por el error: es un error peor simplemente vivir para uno mismo, atrapado en tradiciones que están manchadas por la inhumanidad.

• Pues bien", dijo Katsa. "Por supuesto, actuaremos con el mayor secreto posible, Bitterblue. Y por si sirve de algo, negaremos tu participación hasta el último aliento, y mataré a cualquiera que no lo haga". Bann empezó a reírse en el hombro de Raffin. Sonriendo, Raffin le dijo de reojo: "¿Te imaginas lo que sería poder decir eso y decirlo en serio?

• Childhood hunger in America is as much a paradox as it is a tragedy. Why, in the wealthiest country in the world, should hunger darken the lives and dreams of 12 million children and their families? I believe that, when Americans learn the facts and understand how their involvement can make a difference, banishing childhood hunger will be a national, local and personal priority.

• El desapego no es indiferencia. Es el requisito previo para una implicación eficaz. A menudo, lo que pensamos que es mejor para los demás está distorsionado por el apego a nuestras opiniones. Queremos que los demás sean felices como nosotros pensamos que deberían serlo. Sólo cuando no queremos nada para nosotros mismos somos capaces de ver con claridad las necesidades de los demás y comprender cómo servirles.

• These entities are clever enough to make Strieber think they care about him. Yet his torment by them never ceases. Whatever his relationship to the entities, and he increasingly concludes that their involvement with him is something 'good,' he also remains terrified of them and uncertain as to what they are.

• No intento lavar el cerebro a mis críticos. Si son críticos, son críticos, y es su trabajo ser críticos, pero ciertamente disfruto de la relación que tengo con mis fans. Disfruto del tiempo que paso con ellos, y no pierdo el tiempo con alguien testarudo que no va a entrar en razón.

• I realized that most thoughts are impersonal happenings, like self-assembling machines. Unless we train ourselves, the thoughts passing through our mind have little involvement with our will. It is strange to realize that even our own thoughts pass by like scenery out the window of a bus, a bus we took by accident while trying to get somewhere else. Most of the time, thinking is an autonomous process, something that happens outside of our control. This perception of machine-like quality of the self is something many people discover, then try to overcome, through meditation.

• My advice to myself and to everyone else, particularly young people, is to turn on, tune in and drop out. By drop out, I mean to detach yourself from involvement in secular, external social games. But the dropping out has to occur internally before it can occur externally. I'm not telling kids just to quit school; I'm not telling people to quit their jobs. That is an inevitable development of the process of turning on and tuning in.

• I quickly said that, because of my loyalty to 'Star Trek' and also just being a fan, I wouldn’t even want to be involved in the next version of those things. I declined any involvement very early on. I’d rather be in the audience not knowing what was coming, rather than being involved in the minutiae of making them.

• It was unfair that people could pretend to be one thing when they were really something else. That they would get you on their side and then do nothing but fail, and fail, and fail again. People should come with warnings, like cigarette packs: involvement would kill you over time.
