    It’s rather disturbing, because when you’re young you think so much is important, including oneself. But as you get older, I think you find less and less is important, apart from some very, very fundamental things, one of them being a love for one’s fellow man, and a care for their survival. And a care for one’s immediate family, then friends and then wider, like a circle, like ripples in water.

    Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasure to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.

    First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Hello,

I believe it is truly possible to change the world, one thought at a time. If anything I have written connects with you, please share it with others. My goal in creating this is to help others with ideas that are thought-provoking, stimulating and cathartic.
