[Lilith7]

”Our humankind at this moment in our destiny is a child blowing on a dandelion, without thought or understanding. But the wonder in a child is the wonder in us & there’s no limit to the good we can do , when human hearts connect. It’s the truth of us. It’s the story of us. It’s the meaning of the word god: we are one. We are one. We are one."

Gregory David Roberts, The mountain shadow


"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 treasures 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. "

Octavia E. Butler, Parable of the Talents
