There is no external solution to the problem of insecurity.

Anybody who tries to change society without examining the family is trying to push a shadow without moving a statue.

We are not taught to fear our politicians, who can debase our currency, throw us in prison and send us to war - but rather we are taught to fear each other. We are taught to imagine that the real predators in this world are not those who control prison cells, national debts and nuclear weapons, but rather our fellow citizens, who in the absence of brutal control would surely tear us apart!

We cannot build on peace on blood. We are still so addicted to this lie. We have this fantasy that we honor the dead by adding to their number. What we need to do is remember that these bodies bury us. This ocean of blood that we create through the fantasy that violence brings virtue drowns us, drowns our children, drowns our future, drowns the world. We have to understand that when we pour these endless young bodies into this pit of death, we follow.

It is really exhausting to live in a dictatorship of 'Me', which is basically a tyranny of others.

Pulse proximity is not intimacy.

The law is an opinion with a gun.
