I think it's the responsibility of every human being, not just those who wear the identity of poet, activist, voter, religious person... it's the responsibility of every person. Our responsibility is to use our intelligence as clearly and coherently as we possibly can.
John TrudellAs human beings, we're given intelligence. This is how we make our way through this reality, how we manifest our reality clearly and coherently.
John TrudellI'm just a human being trying to make it in a world that is very rapidly losing it's understanding of being human.
John TrudellBelieving isn't thinking, but we've been programmed to believe that believing is thinking. To use our intelligence to think means we're keeping the energy active, we're thinking, we're really using the power of our intelligence in a thinking way. But when we've been programmed to believe, we're no longer thinking, because energy flows.
