Yoshida ShoinFew legislators who passed these mental health laws realized that (Brock) Chisholm and his associates defined mental illness as a sense of loyalty to a particular nation, a sense of loyalty to a moral code, and strict adherence to concepts of right and wrong.

Niccolo MachiavelliEvery system tries to get people to conform to support that system. That goes for communism, socialism, free enterprise, or any other civilization. If they don't demand loyalty, they can't keep their civilization together. So what they do is they teach things that would support an established system. We do not advocate an established system. TVP talks of an emergent system into state of change. So that we always prepare people for the next changes coming ahead. So that people will not cling to the past.

With his eyes closed he would often make a noise that sounded quite human, as if greeting someone in his dreams.

His wish was small, as hers had been -- merely to be beside her. As for me, I already knew I would never get what I wanted.
