← Intracorporal Nanonetwork – Mik Andersen – Brief summary – Version
From childhood I was compelled to concentrate attention upon myself. This caused me much suffering, but to my present view, it was a blessing in disguise for it has taught me to appreciate the inestimable value of introspection in the preservation of life, as well as a means of achievement. The pressure of occupation and the incessant stream of impressions pouring into our consciousness through all the gateways of knowledge make modern existence hazardous in many ways. Most persons are so absorbed in the contemplation of the outside world that they are wholly oblivious to what is passing on within themselves. The premature death of millions is primarily traceable to this cause. Even among those who exercise care, it is a common mistake to avoid imaginary, and ignore the real dangers. And what is true of an individual also applies, more or less, to a people as a whole. (Nikola Tesla)
Es gibt kein gutmütigeres, aber auch kein leichtgläubigeres Volk als das Deutsche. Zwiespalt brauchte ich unter ihnen nie zu säen. Ich brauchte nur meine Netze auszuspannen, dann liefen sie wie ein scheues Wild hinein. Untereinander haben sie sich gewürgt, und sie meinten ihre Pflicht zu tun. Törichter ist kein anderes Volk auf Erden. Keine Lüge kann grob genug ersonnen werden: die Deutschen glauben sie. Um eine Parole, die man ihnen gab, verfolgten sie ihre Landsleute mit größerer Erbitterung als ihre wirklichen Feinde. (Napoleon Bonaparte)
And I think most people will realize, that the world of this time is not governed by the best possible attitudes, it is governed by selfishness, it is governed by ambitions, that are false.., it is developing around a financial center, that is unendurable and it is also exploiting and destroying the natural ressources, all these things are happening. Every Newspaper has articles on them, every Individual knows something about these matters, but he continues to ignore them, either believing, that there is nothing he can do about them or that he is too busy doing other things that he prefers to do, but the great working of Karma, which sometimes brings a human being to the edge of Chaos, it brings the collective Humanity, of which we are a part, also to the brink of Chaos. (Manly P. Hall)
Governments need armies to protect them against their enslaved and oppressed subjects. (Leo Tolstoy)
