"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

Inspirational quote by Marianne Williamson about embracing your light and powerCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, Our presence automatically liberates others." Marianne Williamson

Inspirational quote about success and persistence by Henry FordCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork

"More men are beaten than fail. It is not wisdom they need or money, or brilliance, or "pull," but just plain gristle and bone. This rude, simple, primitive power which we call "stick-to-it-iveness" is the uncrowned king of the world of endeavour. People are utterly wrong in their slant upon things. They see the successes that men have made and somehow they appear to be easy. But that is a world away from the facts. It is failure that is easy. Success is always hard. A man can fail in ease; he can succeed only by paying out all that he has and is." Henry Ford

"The state school system is a military system, modeled on and implemented from Prussian militarism. It is a chain of command from the government to the minister of education to the state secretary to the school inspector to the principal to the teacher to the student. The order: to implement the curriculum prescribed from above. This is a kind of state terror, intellectual terror." Axel Burkart

"In schools, children learn above all to accept the system, to work for paper money, and not to question the government. They do not learn to make peace, to forgive, to be helpful to all people, and certainly not wisdom. It is a breeding ground for training the future workhorses of the elites to be puppets loyal to the system." Matthias Lubos

Quote about education being a form of propaganda by Henry Louis MenckenCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork

"The plain fact is that education is itself a form of propaganda - a deliberate scheme to outfit the pupil, not with the capacity to weigh ideas, but with a simple appetite for gulping ideas ready-made. The aim is to make 'good' citizens, which is to say, docile and uninquisitive citizens." Henry Louis Mencken

"It isn't a coincidence that governments everywhere want to educate children. Government education, in turn, is supposed to be evidence of the state's goodness and its concern for our well-being. The real explanation is less flattering. If the government's propaganda can take root as children grow up, those kids will be no threat to the state apparatus. They'll fasten the chains to their own ankles." Llewellyn H. Rockwell Jr.

Quote by John Taylor Gatto revealing the hidden lessons taught by school systemsCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"The well-known school critic and teacher John Taylor Gatto identifies seven lessons as the real teachings of school: Confusing the student Awakening class consciousness Teaching indifference Creating intellectual and emotional dependence Weakening self-confidence and Accustoming students to constant supervision. "School condemns most people to being lowly building blocks in a pyramidal social model. In collaboration with television, schooling robs children of the time they need to develop a unique personality, thereby preventing them from growing up. School has replaced the ‘family curriculum’ with the components of privacy, independence, and social life. In its place has come the factory school, a prison for children's souls that fragments social relationships into networks and cannot be survived without damage." "It replaces the intellectual growth of children with the violent creation of subjects. It kills the curiosity of its subjects, places them in a dense fog of confusion from which many will never be able to free themselves in their entire lives, it blocks their path to individual freedom and denies them the fulfillment that comes with a free spirit.""

"I would abolish the German school system, fire all school principals and administrative officials, and reinvent it with the help of people who know what they are talking about. The existing system—with a few notable exceptions—kills the spirit of teachers, destroys the minds and souls of children, and spreads fear and anxiety among parents, who feel compelled to push their children even though everything speaks against it. The existing system serves neither the state (states) nor the people who work there every day. It can only be described as an economic, cultural, intellectual, and human disaster. I am waiting for the day when German parents have had enough and have the courage to stand up for their children" Jesper Juul

Quote by Henry Louis Mencken about the true aim of public educationCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"The most erroneous assumption is to the effect that the aim of public education is to fill the young of the species with knowledge and awaken their intelligence, and so make them fit to discharge the duties of citizenship in an enlightened and independent manner. Nothing could be further from the truth. The aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all; it is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality. That is its aim in the United States, whatever the pretensions of politicians, pedagogues and other such mountebanks, and that is its aim everywhere else." Henry Louis Mencken

Inspirational quote by Henri-Louis Bergson about awakening your spiritual immune system and following your heartCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/

"Fortunately, some are born with a spiritual immune system that sooner or later rejects the illusory worldview that has been grafted onto them from birth through social conditioning. They begin to sense that something is wrong, and the search for answers begins. Inner knowledge and abnormal external experiences show them a side of reality that others ignore, and so their journey to awakening begins. Each step of the journey is taken by following the heart rather than following the crowd, and by choosing knowledge rather than the veils of ignorance." Henri-Louis Bergson

Quote by Dietrich Bonhoeffer on why stupidity is more dangerous than maliceCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of goodness than malice. Evil can be protested against, exposed, and, if necessary, prevented by force; evil always carries within it the seeds of its own destruction, leaving at least a feeling of unease in people. We are defenseless against stupidity. Neither protests nor force can achieve anything here; reasons do not catch on; facts that contradict one's own prejudices simply do not need to be believedin such cases, the stupid person even becomes critical, and if they are unavoidable, they can simply be dismissed as meaningless isolated cases. Unlike evil people, stupid people are completely satisfied with themselves; indeed, they even become dangerous because they are easily provoked into attacking others. Therefore, we must be more cautious with stupid people than with evil people. ... On closer inspection, it becomes apparent that any strong external display of power, whether political or religious, strikes a large part of humanity with stupidity. ... The Bible verse that says the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 1:7) tells us that the only real way to overcome stupidity is through the inner liberation of human beings to live responsibly before God." Dietrich Bonhoeffer

"Planners claim that their plans are scientific and that, among decent people with good intentions, there can be no disagreements about them. Yet there is no such thing as a "scientific ought." Science serves to determine what is. It can never prescribe what ought to be or what goals people should pursue. It is a fact that people disagree in their value judgments. It is outrageous to arrogate to oneself the right to override others' plans and force them to submit to the planner's design." Ludwig von Mises

Quote by Alexander von Humboldt on freedom, diversity, and the impact of state interference on societyCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"The true purpose of man, not that which is dictated by changing inclinations, but that which is dictated by eternal and unchanging reason, is the highest and most proportionate development of his powers into a whole. Freedom is the first and indispensable condition for this development. (...) It is precisely the diversity that arises from the union of many that is the highest good that society offers, and this diversity is certainly always lost to the extent that the state interferes. It is no longer actually the members of a nation who live together in community, but individual subjects who enter into a relationship with the state, i.e., with the spirit that prevails in its government, and indeed into a relationship in which the superior power of the state already inhibits the free play of forces. Uniform causes have uniform effects. The more the state intervenes, the more similar not only everything that acts becomes, but also everything that is acted upon. (...) But anyone who reasons in this way for others is, not without reason, suspected of misunderstanding humanity and wanting to turn people into machines." Alexander von Humboldt

"We must not forget how serious an infringement on fundamental rights a vaccination mandate would be. It does not only interfere with bodily integrity, but also affects an individual’s dignity if vaccination is carried out against their will. Given the significant uncertainty that still exists, I clearly believe that the individual’s interest in freedom outweighs everything else. In this situation, there must be no coercion to get vaccinated." Prof. Dr. Dr. Frauke Meta Rostalski

Quote by Guido Westerwelle about the silent threat to freedom and civil rights in GermanyCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"The threat to freedom in Germany does not come with violence and noise, but rather quietly. It comes with all sorts of justifications, often well-intentioned ones. For example, when it comes to civil rights. In times when we are all concerned about the threat of terrorism, when we all naturally have to do everything we can for our citizens so that they can live happy lives unharmed. In times like these, parties and politicians come along and say, 'Now is the time to once again gradually reduce civil rights, which always bother us a little anyway. Freedom always dies inch by inch, as Karl Herrman Flach once put it. And freedom does not die because of politicians, it does not die because politicians want to restrict civil rights and liberties, but rather it becomes dangerous for freedom when citizens forget their own immune system, which must arm them against any threat to freedom. And for me, that is the decisive self-image of our party. That we say: For us, the citizen comes first and then the state. Other parties trust the state first and only then trust the citizens. Under the pretext of creating security, every civil right can be called into question. Under the pretext that security requires it, every tightening of the law can be decided. We fight this wherever we can, in the federal government, in parliament, but ladies and gentlemen, we also need the citizens. We also need self-confident citizens who do not accept the statement: “If you have nothing to hide, you should not complain.” No, we want a nation of self-confident citizens, not subjects of the state."

Quote by Ulrich Bahnsen about the constantly changing nature of the genome and new perspectives in geneticsCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"The genome was considered to be the unchanging blueprint of human beings, determined at the beginning of our lives. Science must now abandon this idea. In reality, our genetic makeup is constantly changing. Two years ago, 25 geneticists gathered at the University of California, Berkeley, to answer a seemingly simple question: What is a gene? However, the attempt to precisely define the basic concept of their field proved to be extremely difficult. The meeting of experts almost ended in disaster, recalls Karen Eilbeck, professor of human genetics at Berkeley and host of the roundtable: “We had hours of meetings. Everyone was yelling at each other.” The dispute in Berkeley had little to do with researcher vanity. It was the first sign that the life sciences—still unnoticed by the public—were on the verge of a turning point. What researchers are uncovering in the chromosome strands of humans and animals is breaking with previous patterns of thinking in genetics. Much like at the beginning of the 20th century, when Einstein and his colleagues formed a new physical worldview, the age of relativistic genetics may now be dawning. Medical research in particular is facing new challenges. Initial outlines are becoming apparent: the body and soul, their health, illness, development, and aging are subject to a genetic interplay whose complexity exceeds all previous ideas. Geneticists must abandon their image of a stable genome in which changes are pathological exceptions. Everyone's genetic material is constantly undergoing change. The result: every organism, every human being, even every cell in the body is a genetic universe unto itself." Ulrich Bahnsen

"The biggest joke. The idea of installing Mr. Lauterbach as health minister is the biggest joke since Caligula appointed his horse as consul.

Quote by Klaus Dörner discussing the impact of competition in healthcare on defining illness and mental healthCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"Competition forces the development of new markets. The goal must be to turn all healthy people into sick people, i.e., people who consider themselves to be in need of therapeutic, rehabilitative, and preventive manipulation by experts, both chemically and psychologically, for as long as possible in order to be able to “live healthily.” This is already working quite well in the area of physical illness, but even better in the area of mental disorders, especially since there is no shortage of theories according to which almost all people are unhealthy. What is questionable is the analogous transfer of the concept of illness from the physical to the psychological. Some examples: a) The sensory organ of fear, responsible for signaling as yet unclear threats, is unpleasant but vitally necessary and therefore perfectly healthy; only the wrong way of dealing with fear (e.g., defense, repression) can make you ill. In the 1970s and 1980s, however, fear was recognized as a market niche and a number of new, independent disease entities were constructed – with many wonderful healing possibilities for grateful patients."

And even if he is not romantic personally he is very apt to spread discontent among those who are." Henry Louis Mencken

"The people in the public relations industry aren’t there for the fun of it. They’re doing work. They’re trying to instill the right values. In fact, they have a conception of what democracy ought to be: It ought to be a system in which the specialized class is trained to work in the service of the masters, the people who own the society. The rest of the population ought to be deprived of any form of organization, because organization just causes trouble. They ought to be sitting alone in front of the TV and having drilled into their heads the message, which says, the only value in life is to have more commodities or live like that rich middle class family you’re watching and to have nice values like harmony and Americanism. That’s all there is in life. You may think in your own head that there’s got to be something more in life than this, but since you’re watching the tube alone you assume, I must be crazy …" Noam Chomsky

Inspirational George Orwell quote about the concept of doublethink from his book 1984Copyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"Thus, the Party rejects and vilifies every principle for which the Socialist movement originally stood, and it chooses to do this in the name of Socialism. It preaches a contempt for the working class unexampled for centuries past, and it dresses its members in a uniform which was at one time peculiar to manual workers and was adopted for that reason. It systematically undermines the solidarity of the family, and it calls its leader by a name which is a direct appeal to the sentiment of family loyalty. Even the names of the four Ministries by which we are governed exhibit a sort of impudence in their deliberate reversal of the facts. The Ministry of Peace concerns itself with war, the Ministry of Truth with lies, the Ministry of Love with torture, and the Ministry of Plenty with starvation. These contradictions are not accidental, nor do they result from ordinary hypocrisy: they are deliberate exercises in doublethink. For it is only by reconciling contradictions that power can be retained indefinitely." George Orwell

"The government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can't get and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is sort of an advance auction sale of stolen goods." Henry Louis Mencken

Ronald Reagan quote about We the People and freedomCopyright © yoice.net – Quote Artwork
/
0 Comments
"Our revolution was the first in the history of mankind that truly reversed the course of government – and that with three little words: "We the People." "We the People" tell the government what to do; it doesn't tell us. "We the People" are the driver; the government is the car. And we decide where it should go, by what route, and how fast. Almost all the world's constitutions are documents in which governments tell the people what their privileges are. Our Constitution, however, is a document in which "We the People" tell the government what it may do. "We the People" are free. This belief has been the foundation for everything I've tried to achieve in the past eight years. But in the 1960s, when I began, it seemed to me we had begun to reverse the order of things. Through more and more rules, regulations, and crushing taxes, the government took more of our money, more choices, and more freedom. I went into politics to raise my hand and say "Stop!" I was a citizen, a politician by conviction – and it seemed the right thing to do. I think we have stopped much of what needed to be stopped. And I hope we have reminded people that man is not free if government has no limits. There is a clear connection here, as clear and predictable as a law of nature: As government grows, liberty shrinks." Ronald Reagan

"The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disorders and miseries, which result, gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual; and sooner or later the chief of some prevailing faction, more able or more fortunate than his competitors, turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of Public Liberty."
