From the book of My name is Asher lev............

He should be careful of 

the influence of those 

with whom he consorts,

and he runs a great risk in 

becoming a member of 

a large society,

for large bodies then towards 

the leveling of individuality to 

a common consent,

the forming and adherence to 

a creed.

            *      *      *      *       *

You can do anything you want to do,

what is rare is this actual wanting 

to do a specific thing:

wanting it so much that you are 

practically blind to

all other things,

that nothing else will satisfy you.

             *      *      *      *      *

An artist has got to get acquainted 

with himself

just as much as he can.

It is not easy job

for it is not a present-day 

habit of humanity.

             *       *      *      *      *

Every great artist is a man

who has freed himself from 

his family

his nation, his race.

Every man who has shown 

the world the way to beauty,

to true culture, has been rebel

A "universal with out patritiosm", 

with out home"

Who has found 

his people every where.

Quote of the day..........

Liberty and Love, 

They are all I need. 

For Love I sacrifice my Life 

For liberty I sacrifice my Love. 

--Sandor Petofi. 1823-1849.

the Civil Liberties embodied in the US Bill of Rights.

In Propagand..........

Sometimes In propaganda

Imitations far outweigh

The original in rhetoric.
