"The diseases of the mind are more..." - Quote by Marcus Tullius Cicero

“Let us remember that justice must be observed even to the lowest.”

“By Hercules! I prefer to err with Plato, whom I know how much you value, than to be right in the company of such men.”

“If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need.”

“Choice implies consciousness - a high degree of consciousness. Without it, you have no choice. Choice begins the moment you disidentify from the mind and its conditioned patterns, the moment you become present....Nobody chooses dysfunction, conflict, pain. Nobody chooses insanity. They happen because there is not enough presence in you to dissolve the past, not enough light to dispel the darkness. You are not fully here. You have not quite woken up yet. In the meantime, the conditioned mind is running your life.”

“Thought is the fountain of action, life and manifestation; make the fountain pure, and all will be pure.”

“One definition of man is an intelligence served by organs.”

“Since I came to the White House, I got two hearing aids, a colon operation, skin cancer, a prostate operation, and I was shot. The damn thing is, I've never felt better in my life.”

“What is left of the poor? Try to buy a fresh f**king vegetable in West Baltimore. It is a not completely inconceivable scenario in the future, we'll all look like that... Waddling from convenience store to fast food outlet, chewing mindlessly on 99 cent hamburgers.”

“The colder the X-ray table, the more of your body is required to be on it.”
