There is no satisfying the senses, not even with a shower of money. "The senses are of slight pleasure and really suffering."

It could be a paradise on earth if it belonged to the people, not to a small owning class.

It is my sincere opinion that our precious time on earth should not be spent attempting to justify unbelievable acts of cruelty, death, and disease as a part of 'God’s Plan' or the greater good — and clinging to ancient texts that preach ill-concealed bigotry and sexism.
