“The world’s biggest religion is capitalism:
money is our god, greed is our priest,
banks are our temples,
and shopping is how we express our worship.

The world’s biggest cartel is politics:
democracy is our god, elections are our priest,
voting booths are our temples,
and ballots are how we express our worship.

The world’s biggest idol is stardom:
celebrities are our gods, fame is our priest,
tabloids are our temples,
and applause is how we express our worship.

The world’s biggest faith is hedonism:
sex is our god, lust is our priest,
brothels are our temples,
and fornication is how we express our worship.”
― Matshona Dhliwayo

“Your mind is a paintbrush,
your imagination is a canvass,
and your thoughts are your masterpiece.

Your heart is a paintbrush,
your desires are a canvass,
and your actions are your masterpiece.

Your soul is a paintbrush,
your world is a canvass,
and your life is your masterpiece.”
― Matshona Dhliwayo
