@izzythepush,
I seldom read about people like him, but I read today that he said people should be killed for being born black. No sympathy.

@edgarblythe,
He was a vile creature, full of bigotry and hate.

Bertrand Russell
“I have been accused of a habit of changing my opinions in philosophy ... I am not myself in any degree ashamed of having changed my opinions .... I do not claim the kind of truth which theologians claim for their creeds. I claim only, at best, that the opinion expressed was a sensible one to hold at the time when it was expressed.“

It's like our visit to the moon, or to that other star.
I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far.

Not sure which King this is

The way to honor King: Don’t just quote #MLK. Work to eradicate racism, poverty, and militarism. That’s on the path to true peace, which, as my father said, “is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice.”

“While the game of deadlocks and bottle-necks goes on, another more serious game is also being played. It is governed by two axioms. One is that there can be no peace without a general surrender of sovereignty: the other is that no country capable of defending its sovereignty ever surrenders it. If one keeps these axioms in mind one can generally see the relevant facts in international affairs through the smoke-screen with which the newspapers surround them.”

"The life of a mythology derives from the vitality of its symbols as metaphors delivering, not simply the idea, but a sense of actual participation in a realization of transcendence, infinity, and abundance ... Indeed, the first and most essential service of a mythology is this one, of opening the mind and heart to the utter wonder of all being. And the second service, then is cosmological: of representing the universe and the whole spectacle of nature, both as known to the mind and as beheld by the eye, as an epiphany of such kind that when lightning flashes, or a setting sun ignites the sky, or a deer is seen standing alerted, the exclamation 'Ah!' may be uttered as a recognition of divinity."
-Joseph Campbell

People are wonderful. I love individuals. I hate groups of people. I hate a group of people with a 'common purpose'. 'Cause pretty soon they have little hats. And armbands. And fight songs. And a list of people they're going to visit at 3am. So, I dislike and despise groups of people but I love individuals. Every person you look at; you can see the universe in their eyes, if you're really looking.”
~George Carlin
