  • My mum is an artist and very into creative expression and freedom.

  • Procedure is the bone structure of a democratic society. Our scheme of law affords great latitude for dissent and opposition. It compels wide tolerance not only for their expression but also for the organization of people and forces to bring about the acceptance of the dissenter's claim....We have alternatives to violence.

  • Expression and communication in the peak–experiences tend often to become poetic, mythical, and rhapsodic, as if this were the natural kind of language to express such states of being.

  • Humanitarianism is the expression of stupidity and cowardice.

  • In times of violence, personal predilections for niceties of colour and form seem irrelevant. All primitive expression (like the myths) reveals the constant awareness of powerful forces, the immediate presence of terror and fear.

  • People who think of children's nudity as a tool don't need freedom of expression.

  • Words are changing. I find that old expressions are outdated, so when I write something, I try to find a new expression that hasn't been born yet. It's difficult.

  • The Second Temple was destroyed because of causeless hatred. Perhaps the Third will be rebuilt because of causeless love.

  • I believe in mysticism, with an interior goal, and you are your own temple and your own priest.

  • It is through the body that everything comes to the mind. It is through and with your body that you have to reach realization of being a spark of divinity. How can we neglect the temple of the spirit?
