    One of the best ways of enslaving a people is to keep them from education. The second way of enslaving people is to suppress the source of information, not only by burning books but by controlling all the ways in which ideas are transmitted. - 5-11-1943 Eleanor Roosevelt

    faithless is he that says
    farewell when the road darkens...
    j.r.r. tolkien

    In the name of the best within you, do not sacrifice this world to those who are its worst.
    In the name of the vaues that keep you alive, do not let your vision of man be distorted by
    the ugly, the cowardly, the mindless who have never achieved his title. do not lose your
    knowledge that man's proper estate is an upright posture, an intransigent mind, and a step
    that travels unlimited roads. Do not let your spark go out, spark by irreplacable spark, in the
    hopeless sparks of the approximate, the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all. Do not let the
    hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved, but have never been
    able to reach. Check your road and the nature of your battle. the world you desired can be
    won. It exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.
    ayn rand
