"Goals are the fuel in the furnace of achievement. The bigger your goals and the clearer they are, the more excited you become about achieving them. The more you think about your goals, the greater becomes your inner drive and desire to accomplish them." Brian Tracy

"Your future depends on the goodwill of a small elite. Maybe there is goodwill for a few decades. But in a time of crisis – like climate catastrophe – it would be very tempting, and easy, to toss you overboard." Yuval Noah Harari

Inspirational quote on wisdom by Viktor SchaubergerCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/

"The majority believes that everything hard to comprehend must be very profound. This is incorrect. What is hard to understand is what is immature, unclear and often false. The highest wisdom is simple and passes through the brain directly into the heart." Viktor Schauberger

Astronomers surprised by JWST images, quote by Eric J. LernerCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"To most professional astronomers and cosmologists, they [die JWST-Bilder] are also extremely surprising—not at all what was predicted by theory. […] One paper’s title begins with the candid exclamation: ‘Panic!’" Eric J. Lerner

Quotation about the cosmological principle by Bjørn Ekeberg and Louis MarmetCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/

"As the physicist Sabine Hossenfelder recently pointed out, a key assumption like ‘the cosmological principle’ - that the universe is on average the same in all directions - does not hold up well against observations." Bjørn Ekeberg & Louis Marmet

Quote about the uniqueness of cosmology by Bjørn Ekeberg and Louis MarmetCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/

"Cosmology is different from other sciences in a fundamental way. The sheer scope of the subject matter covers the largest extent imaginable - literally - and it does so based only on observations from our own local place within it." Bjørn Ekeberg & Louis Marmet

Quote on cosmology critique by Bjørn Ekeberg and Louis Marmet questioning the standard model and paradigm stuck natureCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"What if any of these hidden inferences happen to be fundamentally wrong? [...] Has the current standard model [Cosmology] become orthodoxy because it is very well-founded and proven - as the consensus view would have it? Or is it rather orthodoxy because it’s become ‘paradigm stuck’ - that is, path dependent and unable to generate a viable alternative?" Bjørn Ekeberg & Louis Marmet

Quote about logical inference leaps as premises in cosmology by Bjørn Ekeberg and Louis MarmetCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"Before any physics or mathematics is involved, the framework is based on a series of logical inference leaps - we count 13 - that works as an invisible premise for the theory. Of these, some are not testable or are barely plausible. But they are necessary as simplifying conditions that enable scientists to articulate a scientifically consistent theory of the universe." Bjørn Ekeberg & Louis Marmet

Quote on the critique of the Standard Model of Cosmology by Bjørn Ekeberg and Louis MarmetCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"Today, there is increasing critical attention on some problematic parts of the Standard Model of Cosmology. Dark matter, dark energy and inflation theory are parts of the standard theoretical framework that remain empirically unverified - and where new observations prompt ever more questions. However, little questioning is heard of the many unverifiable core assumptions that make up our model of the universe." Bjørn Ekeberg & Louis Marmet

Quote about cosmological models and observational discrepancies by Bjørn Ekeberg and Louis MarmetCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"When faced with discrepancies between theory and observation, cosmologists habitually react by adjusting or adding parameters to fit observations, propose additional hypotheses, or even propose “new physics” and ad hoc solutions that preserve the core assumptions of the existing model." Bjørn Ekeberg & Louis Marmet

Quote about the paradox in cosmology by Bjørn Ekeberg and Louis MarmetCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"There is a great paradox haunting cosmology. The science relies on a theoretical framework that struggles to fit and make sense of the observations we have but is so entrenched that very few cosmologists want to seriously reconsider it." Bjørn Ekeberg & Louis Marmet

"The current orthodoxy of cosmology rests on unexamined assumptions that have massive implications for our view of the universe. From the size of the universe to its expansion, does the whole programme fail if one of these assumptions turns out to be wrong?" Bjørn Ekeberg & Louis Marmet

Quote by Yuval Noah Harari about the relationship between science, power, and truthCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"I mean science, as an institution, is interested in gaining the power — to gain control over the world — to be able to gain control over diseases, over the human body, over the environment, over rivers and animals and forests. You have to submit a grant to somebody to fund, it all comes down to money, in many cases. It’s also an institution- If you’re a freelance scientist, you just explore the truth. Okay. But in an institution, a university, you need money to finance so you submit a research grant, and you have to convince the authority not of the truth. You have to convince the authority that what you want to do will somehow make us more powerful. Will somehow enable us to produce a new weapon. Will somehow enable us to produce more food. Will somehow enable us to gain control over previously uncontrollable, or deadly disease. And this is really what gets the money. Of course, it means to also be truth to some extent. Does it work and who wants it?" Yuval Noah Harari

Quote on psychological compulsion and freedom by Aldous HuxleyCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"The nature of psychological compulsion is such that those who act under constraint remain under the impression that they are acting on their own initiative. The victim of mind-manipulation does not know that he is a victim. To him the walls of his prison are invisible, and he believes himself to be free. That he is not free is apparent only to other people. His servitude is strictly objective." Aldous Huxley

Quote about the fatal attraction of government by Thomas SowellCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/

"The fatal attraction of government is that it allows busybodies to impose decisions on others without paying any price themselves. That enables them to act as if there were no price, even when there are ruinous prices - paid by others." Thomas Sowell

"It is amazing that people who think we cannot afford to pay for doctors, hospitals, and medication somehow think that we can afford to pay for doctors, hospitals, medication and a government bureaucracy to administer it." Thomas Sowell

Quote on public opinion manipulation by Edward L. BernaysCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"No serious sociologist any longer believes that the voice of the people expresses any divine or specially wise and lofty idea. The voice of the people expresses the mind of the people, and that mind is made up for it by the group leaders in whom it believes and by those persons who understand the manipulation of public opinion. It is composed of inherited prejudices and symbols and cliches and verbal formulas supplied to them by the leaders." Edward L. Bernays

Quote by Richard Syron comparing the Federal Reserve System to the ChurchCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"The System is just like the Church. That’s probably why I feel so comfortable with it. It’s got a pope, the chairman; and a college of cardinals, the governors and bank presidents; and a curia, the senior staff. The equivalent of the laity is the commercial banks. If you’re a naughty parishioner in the Catholic Church, you come to confession. In this system, if you’re naughty, you come to the discount window for a loan. We even have different orders of religious thought like Jesuits and Franciscans and Dominicans only we call them pragmatists and monetarists and neo-Keynesians." Richard Syron

Quote by G. Edward Griffin about how easily the masses can be manipulated due to lack of serious interest in world affairsCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"They've been programmed and I'm sad because I know that it's hard for people like that to take an interest - serious interest in world affairs - taken serious interest in what their elected officials are doing and they're not going to be really inclined to study and or discover the deception that's being used against them and so I'm sad because I I see all of that in the flash in my mind as being an indication of how easy it is for the masses to be manipulated" G. Edward Griffin

Quote by George Soros about China's inclusion in the new world financial orderCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"I think this would be time because you really need to bring China into the creation of a new world order, a financial world order. They are kind of reluctant members of the IMF. They play along, but they don’t make much of a contribution because it’s not their institution. Their share is not commensurate …their voting rights are not commensurate to their weight, so I think you need a new world order that China has to be part of the process of creating it and they have to buy in. They have to own it the same way as, let’s say, the United States owns the Washington consensus, the current order, and I think this would be a more stable one where you would have co-ordinated policies. I think the makings of it are already there because the G20, in agreeing to peer reviews, effectively is moving in that direction." George Soros

Alibaba, the most valuable retailer, has no inventory. And Airbnb, the world’s largest accommodation provider, owns no real estate. Something interesting is happening." Tom Goodwin

Quote by Wolfgang Streeck about markets deciding economic order and political powerlessnessCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"We don't decide anything. It's decided for us: by the 'markets' and, following their lead, by governments. One has to be careful with language, not to talk oneself into a responsibility one doesn't actually have or that's being taken away from one. 'We' don't need to consider what we'd prefer, because it doesn't matter anyway. Questions of economic order and the distribution of economic benefits are currently decided by summits and central bankers under pressure from large corporations, especially the financial sector. 'We' will only have a say when we understand that, fundamentally, we have no say at all." Wolfgang Streeck

"The state is an insatiable money-eating monster, and the central banks are its tireless inflationary machines. Together they are cronies of the impoverishment of peoples and an ideal pair for the dance of death of civilization" Roland Baader

Quote by Ayn Rand about society’s virtue, corruption, and moral declineCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/

"Money is the barometer of a society’s virtue. When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion- When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing- when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors- when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you- when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice – you may know that your society is doomed." Ayn Rand
