“We must convince each generation that they are but transient passengers on this planet earth. It does not belong to them. They are not free to doom generations yet unborn. They are not at liberty to erase humanity’s past nor dim its future.”

Do as much as possible for the patient, and as little as possible to the patient.

We physicians have focused on the nuclear threat as the singular issue of our era. We are not indifferent to other human rights and hard-won civil liberties.

The International Declaration of Human Rights says the right to housing, health, education should be guaranteed to everyone.

As long as we rationalize nuclear weapons as “necessary” in order to save American lives, then nuclear weapons will never be gotten rid of.

Martin Buber suggested that evil prevailed because of the inability of man to imagine the real.

Yet human beings do have that capacity. Lord Byron, a poet favored by Alfred Nobel, captured the stark essence of a post-nuclear world in his poem Darkness.

Nuclear bombs have made mass murder a reality. Nuclear bombs threaten humankind.

Some of life’s biggest and most positive changes are propelled by mini conspiracies of a few well-meaning folks.

I ran away for a couple of years just to prove I’d never been free.

Definition of ‘Free’: You pay for it whether or not you elect to receive it.

Three minutes thought would suffice to find this out; but thought is irksome and three minutes is a long time.

True states of realization occur when you throw away all the teachings. All of the teachings, absolutely. Everything. Then you are investigation itself finding out what you are.

The Past is the textbook of tyrants; the Future the Bible of the Free. Those who are solely governed by the Past stand like Lot’s wife, crystallized in the act of looking backward, and forever incapable of looking before.

The wave that realizes it is the sea, is forever free.

I’m definitely a writer. I don’t even know how to freestyle.
