201218 What I learned in my studies this morning
Today's Tao:
From The Daily Stoic:
Death treats all fairly. High and low, smart and dumb alike. Use this to center yourself next time you feel below, or above, another.
From Eric Hoffer, Part III: Factors Promoting Self-Sacrifice, Make-Believe:
Deprecation of the Present, cont.
The Future™ is the goal. The present belongs to the past which belongs to the enemies of the movement: the established, the rich, the comfortable, the not us.
Convincing the masses to sacrificing themselves for the movement is only possible if the movement offers Hope™. Particularly Hope™ for The Children™.
(The True Believer, XIII-49)
