SILENCE Silence of the mind
Calms the troubled thoughts
Stirred up within the soul
And brings wisdom from within.Silence of the mouth
Can halt an angry word
Give time to ponder and explain
The hurt from whence it came.Silence of the hands
Halts the artist`s soul
For words or clay or paint
Find expression just this way.Silence of the heart
Closes off the soul
We cannot fly or ride a wave
Or soar upon the clouds.Lee Marsh

"The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices - to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy, and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all its own - for the children, and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone." - Rod Serling
"There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance - that principle is contempt prior to investigation." - Herbert Spencer
