• Anarchists are opposed to violence; everyone knows that. The main plank of anarchism is the removal of violence from human relations. It is life based on freedom of the individual, without the intervention of the gendarme. For this reason we are the enemies of capitalism which depends on the protection of the gendarme to oblige workers to allow themselves to be exploited--or even to remain idle and go hungry when it is not in the interest of the bosses to exploit them. We are therefore enemies of the State which is the coercive violent organization of society.

• [A propósito de la Palabra predicada:] ¿La apreciamos en nuestros juicios? ¿La recibimos en nuestros corazones? ¿Tememos la pérdida de la Palabra predicada más que la pérdida de la paz y el comercio? ¿Es el traslado del arca lo que nos preocupa? De nuevo, ¿atendemos a la Palabra con devoción reverencial? Cuando el juez está dando la acusación en el estrado, todos asisten. Cuando se predica la Palabra, el gran Dios nos da su acusación. ¿La escuchamos como si fuera un asunto de vida o muerte? Esta es una buena señal de que amamos la Palabra.

• Here above the farms and ranches of the Great Plains aviation lives up to the promise that inspired dreamers through the ages. Here you are truly separate from the earth, at least for a little while, removed from the cares and concerns that occupy you on the ground. This separation from the earth is more than symbolic, more than a physical removal - it has an emotional dimension as tangible as the wood, fabric, and steel that has transported you aloft.

• Nothing raises the price of a blessing like its removal; whereas it was its continuance which should have taught us its value. There are three requisitions to the proper enjoyment of earthly blessings,--a thankful reflection on the goodness of the Giver, a deep sense of our unworthiness, a recollection of the uncertainty of long possessing them. The first would make us grateful; the second, humble; and the third, moderate.

  Hannah Más

• Amor, s. Locura temporal curable mediante el matrimonio o alejando al paciente de las influencias bajo las cuales incurrió en el trastorno. Esta enfermedad, como la caries y muchas otras dolencias, sólo prevalece entre las razas civilizadas que viven en condiciones artificiales; las naciones bárbaras que respiran aire puro y comen alimentos sencillos gozan de inmunidad a sus estragos. A veces es mortal, pero más frecuentemente para el médico que para el paciente.

• I am a traditionalist, I'm not a conventional person, but I am a traditionalist in the true form of the word, in that your heart is opening, you're absolutely there for everyone, the face of pain has no tradition, by the way, and in my tradition, a guru simply means the removal of darkness.

• Dependent Origination is the teaching (that life) is not the mere play of blind chance, but has an existence that is dependent upon conditions. That, precisely with the removal of these conditions, those things that have arisen in dependence upon them-thus also all suffering-must perforce disappear and cease to be.

• La vida no consiste en una serie de acciones ilustres o de goces elegantes. La mayor parte de nuestro tiempo transcurre en el cumplimiento de las necesidades, en el desempeño de los deberes diarios, en la eliminación de pequeños inconvenientes, en la obtención de pequeños placeres; y estamos bien o mal, según la corriente principal de la vida se desliza suavemente, o se ve agitada por pequeños obstáculos y frecuentes interrupciones.

• Afirmo no haber controlado los acontecimientos, pero confieso claramente que los acontecimientos me han controlado a mí. Ahora, al final de tres años de lucha, la condición de la nación no es la que ninguno de los partidos, ni ningún hombre ideó o esperaba. Sólo Dios puede afirmarlo. Parece claro hacia dónde tiende. Si Dios quiere ahora eliminar un gran error, y quiere también que tanto nosotros, los del Norte, como ustedes, los del Sur, paguemos justamente por nuestra complicidad en ese error, la historia imparcial encontrará en ello una nueva causa para atestiguar y reverenciar la justicia y la bondad de Dios.

• Skepticism's bad rap arises from the impression that, however necessary the activity, it can only be regarded as a negative removal of false claims. Not so... Proper debunking is done in the interest of an alternate model of explanation, not as a nihilistic exercise. The alternate model is rationality itself, tied to moral decency--the most powerful joint instrument for good that our planet has ever known.
