"If heaven is seeing and in turn being seen, transformed and made new by the beatific face of pure love in resplendent glory, then hell must be seeing, at last and forever after, their own dark and miserable soul as it really is, alone."
Jesse, Death By Overdose, 24 February 2015
"I was satisfied that I wasn't personally to blame and that I hadn't known about those things. I wasn't aware of the extent of the crimes. But one day I went past the memorial plaque which had been put up for Sophie Scholl in Franz Josef Strasse, and I saw that she was born the same year as me, and she was executed the same year I started working for Hitler. And at that moment I actually sensed that it was no excuse to be young, and that it would have been possible to find things out."
Traudl Junge, Im toten Winkel - Hitler's Sekretärin, 2002
"The world would be better off if people tried to become better. And people would become better if they stopped trying to become better off. For when everybody tries to become better off, nobody is better off. But when everybody tries to become better, everybody is better off."
Peter Maurin, Easy Essays, The Catholic Worker, 1933
“How can we expect righteousness to prevail when there is hardly anyone willing to give himself to a righteous cause? What does my death matter, if through us thousands of people are awakened and stirred to action?”
Sophie Scholl, Last Words, Executed February 22, 1943
"When you speak these things, they will not listen. When you call to them, they will not answer. Then declare, 'This is the nation that would not listen to the Lord their God, and would not accept his words. Truth has perished among them, it has disappeared from their mouths. Cut off the hair of your sacred vow and throw it away. Raise up a dirge on the barren heights, for the Lord has rejected and abandoned the generation under His wrath. For the Judeans have done what is evil in My sight.' This is the Lord’s declaration. 'They have set up detestable things in the house that is called by My name — and defiled it.'"
Jeremiah 7:27-30
"The demon's target is not the possessed; it is us the observers — everyone in the house. The point is to make us despair, to reject our humanity, to see ourselves as beasts, vile and putrescent, without dignity, ugly, unworthy."
William Peter Blatty, The Exorcist, May 1971
Stocks continued to float higher, in Ponzi like technical buying that ignores most if not all risks, both economic and geopolitical.
Gold and silver rallied overnight and then were pushed lower in New York.
Gold has displaced the Dollar as the World's Premier Investment. I am sure the empire is not pleased.The Dollar is chopping around.
Bitcoin got smacked lower and is now down around 'must hold' support.
VIX is in la-la land.
I do not like to associate with arrogant bullies, pathological liars, shameless thieves, and those who cheat, and even ravage and destroy, the innocent of all ages.
And I think most people, when they are thinking clearly and for themselves, tend to agree with this. It's basic humanity and common sense.
This is what makes the things that are going on today, that seem to be tolerated and even encouraged by so many, even among the educated and professional elite, so inexplicable.
We will hear a hundred thousand voices crying out in their pain and misery to heaven.
Do not be deceived, for God is not mocked. What a man sows, so shall he reap.
And His just hand is already moving, slowly but surely, among us.
Have a pleasant evening.
