Ecclesiastes 1

"1 The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem. 2 Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity. 3 What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun? 4 One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever. 5 The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose. 6 The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits. 7 All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again. 8 All things are full of labour; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing. 9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. 10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. 11 There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after."

A rather pessimistic kind of wisdom!

I love Nature partly because she is not man, but a retreat from him. None of his institutions control or pervade her. There a different kind of right prevails. In her midst I can be glad with an entire gladness. If this world were all man, I could not stretch myself. I should lose all hope. He is constraint; she is freedom to me. He makes me wish for another world. She makes me content with this.

- Henry David Thoreau, January 3rd, 1853

Don't be like the believers, who say, "We believe" and allow their belief to restrict them, desiring no further belief; neither be like the disbelievers, who say, "We don't believe" and allow their disbelief to restrict them, desiring no further belief. Be like a child, who is neither believing nor disbelieving, but enquires after everything and holds on to nothing.

"If One stays as Pure as a child, Pure and Clean, the body will
absorb Truth from its Pure and Cleansed UR-Source without Pollution
of Untruths that has not yet reached the Spirit of the child; thus,
Truth is absorbed with ease. Thus be like a child, who has thirst for
Truth and Knowledge, thus, is as Pure and Clean as The Truth of all
Creation...and The Absolute Absolutum."

"Can the seed of a tree be sowed on top of the ground and then grow into it? Is an infant conceived outside of the womb and ages inside it? Does an idea manifest in the world before it manifests in your consciousness? If the seeds of these things have to be sowed within, so also must the seed of truth and wisdom be sowed within you and not outside of you, as you are made to believe. Therefore, if the testimony of another convinces you, let it not be enough. Let your own testimony convince you."

-Immanuel Camilleri, 1782

"I'm older than I want to be
This town holds no more for me
All my life I try to find a better way

I don't care for your attitude
You bring me down I think you are rude

All my life I try to make a better day
It's hard enough being alone
Sitting by the phone
Waiting for my memories to come and play....."

You say that love is blind, and truly it is, for love does not discriminate one from the other. But your love has eyes, for you love only those whom you see are worthy of your love. Those whom you consider to be unworthy, either you despise them or you deny them. Yet haven't they as much right to be a part of your family as those whom you know intimately? Why should you regard others less and excuse yourselves by saying you are not acquainted with them or they are strange in order to treat them differently to how you treat those whom you love? What love is this that has eyes and yet cannot see? This love is not of Creation. - JEC

"...anyone who wishes to be heard must create a disturbance, and whoever wishes to create a disturbance must repeat the same things several times. Only by creating a disturbance, human beings will become aware of some person or some facts presented to them, because they will either feel personally attacked or because it bothers them to hear the same facts two or three times. It is the only way to stimulate people into thinking, regardless of whether it is in a peaceful or angry way. The only important thing is the result, that is to say, the fact that one way or another they feel attacked and, therefore, only then do they begin to ponder things and react." --Billy Meier, 251st Contact

150. A wise one full of spirit consciousness sees what will happen in the
most distant future, perhaps even billions of years later, and he has the
life forms' and humankind's entire past before his eyes.

Why do you waste your time thinking about who I am, and if what I say is right or wrong? Think about yourselves, who you are, and if what you say is right or wrong. For it matters not to me what you think, and neither should it matter to you what I think; but what you think, that is what should matter to you.
