"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society." - Jiddu Krishnamurti

"The stupidity of a nuclear arms race, the development of weapons, trying to solve your problems politically by electing this political party or that political party, that all politics is immersed in corruption... There are no Negro problems or Polish problems or Jewish problems or Greek problems or women's problems - there are human problems! ...I am afraid to live in the society we live in today. Our society cannot be maintained by this type of incompetency." - Jacque Fresco

"Above all, there was fear. Fear of today, fear of tomorrow, fear of our neighbours, and fear of ourselves." - Burt Lancaster in Judgement at Nuremberg

"The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. It should transcend personal God and avoid dogma and theology. Covering both the natural and the spiritual, it should be based on a religious sense arising from the experience of all things natural and spiritual as a meaningful unity. Buddhism answers this description. If there is any religion that could cope with modern scientific needs it would be Buddhism." - Albert Einstein

"You walk towards your fear, you embrace your fear, you don't try to hedge it, that a part of real living as a human being, as a spiritual being, is to embrace and encompass your fear, your love, and not run away from anything, because that's the life experience. And it's in that richness that, I think, we find the most beautiful art, the most beautiful music, we find the richness of what the human soul can offer, and I see all that richness buried under such bullshit." - Micheal Ruppert
