Ralph Waldo Emerson, Self-Reliance: An Excerpt from Collected Essays, First Series

“The fact that man knows right from wrong proves his intellectual superiority to the other creatures; but the fact that he can do wrong proves his moral inferiority to any creatures that cannot. – Mark Twain (1835–1910)”
Suzanne Humphries, Dissolving Illusions

“The enforcement of the compulsory smallpox vaccination law in 1867, when the death rate was already falling, was accompanied by an increase in the deaths from 100 to 400 deaths per million.”

“Carl Jung wrote: “The foundation of all mental illness is the unwillingness to experience legitimate suffering.”
Jackson MacKenzie, Whole Again: Healing Your Heart and Rediscovering Your True Self After Toxic Relationships and Emotional Abuse

Robert Burney, Codependence: The Dance of Wounded Souls
