"Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured."

~ Mark Twain


"Babylon is everywhere. You have wrong and you have right. Wrong is what we call Babylon, wrong things. That is what Babylon is to me. I could have born in England, I could have born in America, it make no difference where me born, because there is Babylon everywhere."

~ Bob Marley


"I remained to much inside my head and ended up losing my mind."

~ Edgar Allan Poe

"Fairy tales are more than true ... "

~ Gilbert K. Chesterton


"All great things must first wear terrifying and monstrous masks in order to inscribe themselves on the hearts of humanity."

~ Friedrich Nietzsche


"The fact that millions of people share the same vices does not make these vices virtues, the fact that they share so many errors does not make the errors to be truths, and the fact that millions of people share the same form of mental pathology does not make these people sane."

~ Erich Fromm


“Absolute consciousness, to the ordinary thinker, is practically impossible of recognition. It has been defined in one book as, "that consciousness in which everything is, the possible as well as the actual”, and concerns everything that can be possibly conceived of as having occurred, or occurring, or going to occur. This is, possibly, absolute consciousness, and from the standpoint of the human being is the consciousness of God, Who contains within Himself the past, the present, and the future.“

~ Alice A. Bailey

"The fact that millions of people share the same vices does not make these vices virtues, the fact that they share so many errors does not make the errors to be truths, and the fact that millions of people share the same form of mental pathology does not make these people sane."

A very significant quote for the modern times. 10-15 years ago, things weren't this bad. The social media has been a catalyst in all of this. Just like nuclear energy, human connections and communication can go both ways. Steemit creates incentive for quality. But all the popular media like Fakebook, Twitter, SNAP and instagram doesn't reward quality. They need people spend more time. Just take a look at YouTube algorithms.



"Quanity comes at the price of quantity which breeds Vanity"
