Gregg Krech
“Today a potato, a tomato, some wheat, lettuce, rice, a banana, and blueberries lost their lives for my sake.”
Gregg Krech, Naikan: Gratitude, Grace, and the Japanese Art of Self-Reflection

Simone Weil
“A beautiful woman looking at her image in the mirror may very well believe the image is herself. An ugly woman knows it is not.”
Simone Weil, Waiting for God

Friedrich Nietzsche
“The thought of suicide is a great consolation: by means of it one gets through many a dark night.”
Nietzsche

Walt Whitman
“Re-examine all you have been told. Dismiss what insults your soul.”
Walt Whitman

Jim Goad
“What you accomplish in life is limited only by your imagination and the fear of reprisal. Life is too fleeting and unrewarding to have to live with the added anus of indignity. The denial of one's inevitable demise is what causes most of the astringent blandness in the world. When your existence ends most certainly in death, there is no such thing as "going too far." There are no "lines" you should fear to cross except the finish line. Playing it safe is the most dangerous thing you could do.”
Jim Goad, ANSWER ME!
