"I
have
three
things
I'd
like
to
say
today.
First,
while
you
were
sleeping
last
night,
30,000
kids
died
of
starvation
or
diseases
related
to
malnutrition.
Second,
most
of
you
don't
give
a shit.
[Third,]
what's
worse
is
that
you're
more
upset
with
the
fact
that
I
said
shit
than
the
fact
that
30,000
kids
died
last
night."

"For
the
heroes
of
all
time
have
gone
before
us;
the
labyrinth
is
thoroughly
known;
we
have
only
to
follow
the
thread
of
the
hero-path.
And
where
we
had
thought
to
find
an
abomination,
we
shall
find
a
god;
where
we
had
thought
to
slay
another,
we
shall
slay
ourselves;
where
we
had
thought
to
travel
outward,
we
shall
come
to
the
center
of
our
own
existence;
where
we
had
thought
to
be
alone,
we
shall
be
with
all
the
world."
Joseph
Campbell
from
his
book,
The
Hero
with
a
Thousand
Faces
"Persecution
for
the
expression
of
opinions
seems
to
me
perfectly
logical.
If
you
have
no
doubt
of
your
premises
or
your
power
and
want
a
certain
result
with
all
your
heart
you
naturally
express
your
wishes
in
law
and
sweep
away
all
opposition...
But
when
men
have
realized
that
time
has
upset
many
fighting
faiths,
they
may
come
to
believe
even
more
than
they
believe
the
very
foundations
of
their
own
conduct
that
the
ultimate
good
desired
is
better
reached
by
free
trade
in
ideas
that
the
best
test
of
truth
is
the
power
of
the
thought
to
get
itself
accepted
in
the
competition
of
the
market,
and
that
truth
is
the
only
ground
upon
which
their
wishes
safely
can
be
carried
out.
That
at
any
rate
is
the
theory
of
our
Constitution."

Wendell
Holmes,
Jr.
(joined

Associate
Justice
Louis
Brandeis)
in
the
U.S.
Supreme
Court
case
Abrams
v.
U.S.
(1919)
"You
may
remember
the
story
of
how
the
devil
and
a
friend
of
his
were
walking
down
the
street,
when
they
saw
ahead
of
them
a
man
stoop
down
and
pick
up
something
from
the
ground,
look
at
it,
and
put
it
away
in
his
pocket.
The
friend
said
to
the
devil,
'What
did
that
man
pick
up?'
'He
picked
up
a
piece
of
the
truth,'
said
the
devil.
'That
is
a
very
bad
business
for
you,
then,'
said
his
friend.
'Oh,
not
at
all,'
the
devil
replied,
'I
am
going
to
help
him
organize
it.'
I
maintain
that
truth
is
a
pathless
land,
and
you
cannot
approach
it
by
any
path
whatsoever,
by
any
religion,
by
any
sect.
That
is
my
point
of
view,
and
I
adhere
to
that
absolutely
and
unconditionally.
Truth,
being
limitless,
unconditioned,
unapproachable
by
any
path
whatsoever,
cannot
be
organized;
nor
should
any
organization
be
formed
to
lead
or
coerce
people
along
a
particular
path."
J.
Krishnamurti
"This
is
no
magnificent
deed,
because
I
do
not
want
followers,
and
I
mean
this.
The
moment
you
follow
someone
you
cease
to
follow
Truth.
I
am
not
concerned
whether
you
pay
attention
to
what
I
say
or
not.
I
want
to
do
a
certain
thing
in
the
world
and
I
am
going
to
do
it
with
unwavering
concentration.
I
am
concerning
myself
with
only
one
essential
thing:
to
set
man
free.
I
desire
to
free
him
from
all
cages,
from
all
fears,
and
not
to
found
religions,
new
sects,
nor
to
establish
new
theories
and
new
philosophies."
J.
Krishnamurti
