Although gold dust is precious, when it gets in your eyes, it obstructs your vision.

Conquer the angry with love.
Conquer the ill-natured with goodness.
Conquer the miser with generosity.
Conquer the liar with truth.

Damnit, got me stuck on Charles Manson! One of the craziest but most interesting characters in US history!
FROM SPEECH TO HIS PAROLE BOARD:
?Remorse for what? You people have done everything in the world to me. Doesn?t that give me equal right? I can do anything I want to you people at any time I want to, because that?s what you?ve done to me. If you spit in my face and smack me in the mouth and throw me in solitary confinement for nothing, what do you think is gonna happen when I get outta here? Maybe I haven?t done enough. I may be ashamed of that, for not doing enough. For not giving enough. For not being more perceptive, for not being aware enough. For not understanding. For uh, being stupid. Maybe I should have killed? four or five hundred people, then I would have felt better. Then I would have felt like I?ve really offered society something. You got it stuck in your brain that I murdered somebody. What do you want to call me a murderer for? I?ve never killed anyone! I don?t need to kill anyone! I think it! I have it here! Uh, this street is my world. I don?t uh, I don?t pretend to go uptown and be anything fancy. I can? but I find more real in the world that I?m in, than I do the tinsel. And the real world is the one I have to deal with every day, you know? Uh, believe me? If I started murdering people, there?d be none of you left.?

if any of you have the time, give this dead man his credit and give him a read.
"Children born into the age of plastics and efficiency experts must penetrate two barriers which obstruct their understanding: one built into things and the other around institutions. Industrial design creates a world of things that resist insight into their nature, and schools shut the learner out of the world of things in their meaningful setting." Ivan Illich "Deschooling Society."
