Truth, like gold, is to be obtained

not by its growth, but by washing away

from it all that is not gold.

Leo Tolstoy

I learned through my body and soul that it was

necessary to sin, that I needed lust, that I had to

strive for property and experience nausea and

the depths of despair in order to learn not to

resist them, in order to learn to love the world,

and no longer compare it with some kind of

desired imaginary vision of perfection, but

to leave it as it is, to love it

and be glad to belong to it.

Hermann Hesse

Mean Girls

Most people abuse power.

They use power to dominate others.

They use power to destroy others.

Ultimately, when you do this, you lose it.

Frederick Lenz

The limits of tyrants are prescribed by

the endurance of those whom they oppress.

Frederick Douglass

People seem good while they are oppressed,

but they only wish to become oppressors in

their turn: life is nothing but a competition

to be the criminal rather than the victim.

Bertrand Russell

The greatest evil perpetrated is the evil

committed by nobodies, that is, by

human beings who refuse to be persons.

Hannah Arendt

Power is never the property of an individual;

it belongs to a group and remains in existence

only so long as the group keeps together.

Hannah Arendt

The individual has always had to struggle

to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.

If you try it, you will be lonely often,

and sometimes frightened. But no price

is too high to pay for the privilege

of owning yourself.

Rudyard Kipling
