Well, I don't know what will happen now.
We've got some difficult days ahead.
But it doesn't matter with me now.
Because I've been to the mountaintop.

I would like to live a long life.
Longevity has its place.
But I'm not concerned about that now.
I just want to do God's will.
And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain.
And I've looked over.
And I've seen the promised land.
I may not get there with you.
But I want you to know tonight, that we,
as a people, will get to the promised land.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

By only running right;

Before we reach its height.
- Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Mind can never be intelligent - only no-mind is intelligent.
Only no-mind is original and radical.
Only no-mind is revolutionary - revolution in action.
The mind gives you a sort of stupor.
Burdened by the memories of the past,
burdened by the projections of the future,
you go on living - at the minimum.
You dont live at the maximum.
Your flame remains very dim.
Once you start dropping thoughts,
the dust that you have collected in the past,
the flame arises - clean, clear, alive, young.
Your whole life becomes a flame,
and a flame without any smoke.
That is what awareness is.
- Osho
Truth cannot be defined,
although it can certainly be experienced.

God is the ultimate dance.

Expediency asks the question - is it politic?
Vanity asks the question - is it popular?

that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular;
but one must take it BECAUSE it is right.
- Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
A prisoner of war is a man who tries to kill you and fails,

Love allows your beloved the freedom to be unlike you.

Attachment tries to exclude everything but two people.
- Deepak Chopra in The Path to Love
The basic thing nobody asks is
why do people take drugs of any sort?

that we cannot live without guarding ourselves against it?
- John Lennon
