Optimism as a Strategy for the Future – Noam Chomsky
“Optimism is a strategy for making a better future. Because unless you believe that the future can be better, it’s unlikely you will step up and take responsibility for making it so. If you assume that there’s no hope, you guarantee that there will be no hope. If you assume that there is an instinct for freedom, there are opportunities to change things, there’s a chance you may contribute to making a better world. The choice is yours.”
Noam Chomsky

Primarily Only Connection Exists – Hans-Peter Dürr
“Primarily, only connection exists, the binding without a material basis. We could also call it spirit. Something we can only experience spontaneously and cannot grasp. Matter and energy appear only secondarily – in a way, as congealed, hardened spirit.”
Hans-Peter Dürr
There is only spirit – Quote by Hans-Peter Dürr
“Basically, we must now say, there is only spirit. Matter is, so to speak, the slag of the spiritual. In our limited human perception, we regard this slag—as we can grasp it with our hands—as far more important than the spiritually alive. But in fact, it must be recognized: Ultimately, there is nothing that exists, nothing that exists by itself. There is only change, transformation, processes. Against this background, we can say: At every moment, the world is newly created. Paradigm of the living!”
Hans-Peter Dürr
I Am Not I – Juan Ramón Jiménez
“I am not I. I am this one walking beside me whom I do not see, whom at times I manage to visit, and whom at other times I forget; the one who remains silent while I talk, the one who forgives, sweet, when I hate, the one who takes a walk when I am indoors, the one who will remain standing when I die.”
Juan Ramón Jiménez
Hard Times Create Strong Men – G. Michael Hopf
“Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.”
