| eb2d2e6 | I knew Reagan was responsible for releasing Merle Haggard from San Quentin," I said. "Wasn't Haggard in prison for murder?" "Yes," I answered. "I am aware that mind control was being used in San Quentin at the time. I wonder if it was used on Haggard, or if he simply became privy to it. Personally, I know Haggard2 as a torturous abuser who openly perpetuates mind control." | Cathy O'Brien | ||
| 28229ec | Does he smoke marijuana?" I asked, aware that marijuana's mind expansion properties are the motive behind the government's adamant opposition to the herb. Since it can render mind control uncontrollable by penetrating memory compartmentalization, marijuana use is strictly forbidden in the military, special forces, among spies, etc." | Cathy O'Brien | ||
| 0a3e46a | One mother Mark and I met with, Bernadette MacArthur, had used the underground networks in conjunction with fleeing the country with her five precious children. Four of them reportedly had been horribly abused, and when the corrupt court system threatened to perpetuate it, Bernadette, pregnant, fled all the way to Turkey with them in 1988. Brilliantly maneuvering through Europe and Mexico, she slipped back into the US and Faye Yeager's unde.. | Cathy O'Brien | ||
| d8b9db8 | A survivor of incest and occultism himself, Greg Reid had cause to be aware of mind control ops that transported our nation's missing blonde haired blue-eyed children over the Mexican border and on to various Arab destinations3. Every border guard, Customs official, and police officer in attendance was aware of this mind control ring. Photos of Columbian and Saudi private jets full of traumatized children were in abundance, yet "National Se.. | Cathy O'Brien | ||
| a7207ab | While speakers in accordance with standard law enforcement tactics presented "just the facts," it was the discussions between presentations that furthered understanding. The very concept of pedophilia was as difficult to grasp for hardened law enforcement officials as it is for the average person, despite the fact that they saw the widespread devastation. Having grown up in an environment saturated with pedophiles, and having been around hi.. | Cathy O'Brien | ||
| a061a41 | Multi-generational sexual child abuse is such a common cause of the proliferation of pedophilia that Hitler/Himmler research focused on this genetic trait for mind control purposes. While I personally could not relate to the idea of sex with a child, I had parents and brothers and sisters who did. I still believe that George Bush revealed today's causation of the rapid rise in pedophilia through justifications I heard him state. The rape of.. | Cathy O'Brien | ||
| c6a8057 | NLP subliminals have long since been used in advertising and marketing, and yet people are still ignorant about it because the government keeps the information suppressed since it is an integral part of their arsenal for marketing their own agenda to a socially engineered population. Attorneys who are aware of it use it to manipulate the minds of the jury, and even the mind of the judge if he doesn't have the knowledge to defend himself aga.. | Cathy O'Brien | ||
| 40d1cde | Once, a great handful of a girl out west told him - I never did love you. [...]How mean of her to salve her spit curled conscience by trying to take away their past! In the kitchen he had started to use those very words on Lou - they sprang readily to mind, as wounding words do - but he stopped himself. | Annie Dillard | ||
| c9863f3 | Un uomo non riesce a conoscere la propria mente perche la mente e tutto quello che ha per conoscerla. Puo conoscere il proprio cuore, ma non vuole. E fa bene. Meglio non guardarci dentro. Non e il cuore di una creatura che sta percorrendo la via che Dio le ha preparato. La cattiveria la puoi trovare anche nell'ultima delle creature, ma quando Dio ha fatto l'uomo doveva avere il diavolo accanto. Una creatura che sa fare tutto. Sa fare una ma.. | Cormac McCarthy | ||
| fa95e36 | Still, it becomes clearer every day that organizing or joining massive protests and demanding new policies fail to sufficiently address the crisis we face. They may demonstrate that we are on the right side politically, but they are not transformative enough. They do not change the cultural images or the symbols that play such a pivotal role in molding us into who we are. | social-change | Grace Lee Boggs | |
| 31a0b1e | I also gained a deeper appreciation of what it must have been like for my mother to be in a foreign country unable to speak the language (in her case, unable to read or write any language). As I walked around by myself, however, it was obvious that based on my body language people perceived me as American but at the same time different enough from other Americans that they felt free to come up and ask me all kinds of personal questions abou.. | Grace Lee Boggs | ||
| bede9ee | various identity struggles... have also had a shadow side in the sense that they have encouraged us to think of ourselves more as determined than as self-determining, more of victims of 'isms' (racism, sexism, capitalism, ableism) than as human beings who have the power of choice. | Grace Lee Boggs | ||
| 03e86d6 | She told him the origins of the "buck dance," when "white people would come up and say 'N____r, dance', and then start shooting around the feet of blacks so that they would dance like everything." 45 Big Ma was an important presence in Jimmy's childhood and adolescence, and he credited her with giving him a unique and powerful sense of historical change. "When she talked about slavery," he recalled, "she always talked not about how they fre.. | Stephen Ward | ||
| ec5ad72 | we have much to learn from the struggles in Alabama and Mississippi in the early 1960s. In the spring of 1963 the Southern Christian Leadership Conference led by Dr. King launched a "fill the jails" campaign to desegregate downtown department stores and schools in Birmingham. But few local blacks were coming forward. Black adults were afraid of losing their jobs, local black preachers were reluctant to accept the leadership of an "Outsider,.. | Grace Lee Boggs | ||
| 3261e63 | Looking at Moby Dick as a mid-twentieth century revolutionist who was also a lover of Shakespeare, he had come to the conclusion that Melville's masterpiece was the "first comprehensive statement in literature of the conditions and perspectives for the survival of Western civilization."28 He saw Ahab, the mad captain taking the Pequod to the bottom of the ocean in pursuit of the white whale, as the forerunner of the totalitarian dictators o.. | Grace Lee Boggs | ||
| 61cb99e | Some years ago I saw a documentary on dying whose main theme was that people die as they lived. That was Jimmy. For five years, since he began undergoing operations for bladder cancer and even after his lung cancer was diagnosed, he continued the activities that he considered important, marching against crackhouses, campaigning against the demolition of the Ford Auditorium, organizing Detroit Summer, making speeches, and writing letters to .. | Grace Lee Boggs | ||
| 3de5ffe | With the end of empire, we are coming to an end of the epoch of rights. We have entered the epoch of responsibilities, which requires new, socially-minded human beings and new, more participatory and place-based concepts of citizenship and democracy. | Grace Lee Boggs | ||
| 77e58ca | The physical threat posed by climate change represents a crisis that is not only material but also profoundly spiritual at its core because it challenges us to think seriously about the future of the human race and what it means to be a human being. | climate-change social-change | Grace Lee Boggs | |

| c179dad | When the daily number of words for each group of children is projected across four years, the four-year-old child from the professional family will have heard 45 million words, the working-class child 26 million, and the welfare child only 13 million. | Jim Trelease | ||
| c78da77 | The eventual strength of our vocabulary is determined not by the ten thousand common words but by how many rare words we understand. | Jim Trelease | ||
| beabfd9 | If there were a national time shortage, the malls would be empty, Netflix would be defunct, and the cable-TV companies would be bankrupt. | Jim Trelease | ||
| 81059bf | Background knowledge is one reason children who read the most bring the largest amount of information to the learning table and thus understand more of what the teacher or the textbook is teaching. Children whose families take them to museums and zoos, who visit historic sites, who travel abroad, or who camp in remote areas accumulate huge chunks of background knowledge without even studying. | Jim Trelease | ||
| 0eb81fa | What we learn in childhood is carved in stone. What we learn as adults is carved in ice. | Jim Trelease | ||
| b84429d | What is meant to be heard is necessarily more direct in expression, and perhaps more boldly coloured, than what is meant for the reader. | Jim Trelease | ||
| d1c4a2e | There should be no rush to have a child reading before age six or seven. That's developmentally the natural time. | Jim Trelease | ||
| e73f5d7 | Children's books, even good picture books, are much richer than ordinary home or classroom conversation, | Jim Trelease | ||
| 91ca094 | You need the combination of know-how and motivation. | Jim Trelease | ||
| fcfb600 | So how do we educate the heart? There are really only two ways: life experience and stories about life experience, which is called literature. Great preachers and teachers--Aesop, Socrates, Confucius, Moses, and Jesus--have traditionally used stories to get their lesson plans across, educating both the mind and the heart. | Jim Trelease | ||
| e92267c | I read more of Treasure Island to him, and it pleased him a great deal. It seems to me that there are so many lonely people in this world, and so little of life is kind and good. In a way, I am thankful for this flood, since without it, I might never have talked to him much, and Mason is a nice fellow. | Nancy E. Turner | ||
| 1cb14f3 | We move on like stone statues. I feel like my legs are made of wooden branches and my heart is a hard rock inside. For days I do not even tie up my hair and it flows around me like an Indian's. I can't find my bonnet and my traveling clothes are ragged and so is my soul. | Nancy E. Turner | ||
| 56b6627 | A lad who wears his every thought upon his face is asking for someone to change his opinions. | Nancy E. Turner | ||
| 9c246b5 | I wondered someday if the devil might wake up and see he got the wrong girl, what will happen then? | Nancy E. Turner | ||
| 6d3952f | A woman who dreams of a good home with a man who holds for her only a poor love is putting a fifty-dollar saddle on a twenty-dollar horse. She'd be far better off single than riding with him. | Nancy E. Turner | ||
| b9137ed | Goats are naught but bones and bleating, and their hair was not warm nor their bodies soft. Of course, there was the smell, too, bitter as overripe vinegar, intrusive as bile. | Nancy E. Turner | ||
| 09932d2 | Maybe part of passing that test was a marker for where I've been, but it feels more like a pointer for something I'll never reach | Nancy E. Turner | ||
| ee420ba | One thing I'd learned from all the burying I'd attended was that sometimes it's hard to pay attention. Burying someone you know will set your mind down some distant trail, as the one you're really on is too painful to view. at the burial of Ernest, Sarah's brother p177 | Nancy E. Turner | ||
| 82d68f7 | But there is no easy way to mourn a child. | Nancy E. Turner | ||
| b778cdf | Children are a burden to a mother, but not the way a heavy box is to a mule. Our children weigh hard on my heart, and thinking about them growing up honest and healthy, or just living to grow up at all, makes a load in my chest that is bigger than the safe at the bank, and more valuable to me than all the gold inside it. | Nancy E. Turner | ||
| 450c792 | I would tear them apart with my bare hands to save my baby April. I wonder if all mothers feel this way. Suddenly I knew why it is so dangerous to mess with a bear with cubs or any wild animal with babies. I am part and parcel with them when it comes to that. Lord, there is a mountain lion side of me I never knew before. | Nancy E. Turner | ||
