This takes exercise and discipline before affection, and always maintaining your calm, assertive pack leadership.

Who can achieve the unconscious-conscious state of the reader when everything is stimulation, everything is movement and information?

Eckhart TolleThe civil-rights movement was completely impossible to achieve. But look at what ordinary people were able to do because they were willing to sacrifice their lives to stay with it.

To say "It's so bad I won't bother" is to give up on your children and give up on your future.

Maxwell MaltzBelief Systems contradict both science and ordinary "common sense." B.S. contradicts science, because it claims certitude and science can never achieve certitude: it can only say, "This model"- or theory, or interpretation of the data- "fits more of the facts known at this date than any rival model." We can never know if the model will fit the facts that might come to light in the next millennium or even in the next week.
