Action, Not Anger, Not Violence



Raging is easy but is neither good for your sanity, nor the best way to effect change.
- Mariella Frostrup

Mariella Frostrup's words are the best advice, the only rational advice, whether the crisis is Misogyny, Racism, Climate Change, Political Corruption, or personal issues.

The limitation of riots, moral questions aside,
is that they cannot win and their participants know it.
Hence, rioting is not revolutionary but reactionary
because it invites defeat.
It involves an emotional catharsis,
but it must be followed by a sense of futility.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

Change of any sort requires courage.
- Mary Anne Radmacher

Violence, even well intentioned,
always rebounds upon oneself.
- Lao Tzu

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful,
committed people can change the world.
Indeed it is the only thing that ever has.
- Margaret Mead

Non-violence means avoiding not only external physical violence
but also internal violence of spirit.
You not only refuse to shoot a man,
but you refuse to hate him.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

Prepare for the unknown by studying how others in the past have coped
with the unforeseeable and the unpredictable.
- George S. Patton

Be resolute in your goals, but flexible in your tactics.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

U.S. General Election Day 2019


Our actions today will determine the world we leave our children.

Bad politicians are sent to Washington [and state and local government] by good people who don't vote.
- William E. Simon

Is there an election today in your area? Kentucky, Louisiana, and Mississippi are electing Governors. Many areas in the US are electing state and local officials today. In many ways, who you choose for local school board is as important as who you choose of President. If you don't live in the US, please remember this message for the next time you have an election.

PLEASE remind your family and friends to vote!

Voting is the foundational act that breathes life into
the principle of the consent of the governed.
- DeForest Soaries

Voting for the kind of America you believe in
is one of the greatest gifts you can give your grandchildren.
Make a difference. VOTE NOW!

Nothing is more important in our national life
than the welfare of our children.
- Harry S. Truman

We will be known forever by the tracks we leave.

All elections are important. While is is vitally important to choose between the final two candidates in November, it is at least equally important to select those two candidates.
