The Parting of the Ways

The imperialist ideology of force, from whatever side it comes, must be shattered for all time.
The White Rose

Candor is always a double-edged sword; it may heal or it may separate.
Wilhelm Stekel

Religion is a great force — the only real motive force in the world; but what you fellows don't understand is that you must get at a man through his own religion and not through yours.
Instead of facing that fact, you persist in trying to convert all men to your own little sect, so that you can use it against them afterwards.
You are all missionaries and proselytizers trying to uproot the native religion from your neighbor's flowerbeds and plant your own in its place.
You would rather let a child perish in ignorance than have it taught by a rival sectary.
You can talk to me of the quintessential equality of coal merchants and British officers; and yet you can't see the quintessential equality of all the religions.
"Hotchkiss" in Getting Married (1908)

George Bernard Shaw

All Faith is false, all Faith is true: Truth is the shattered mirror strown
In myriad bits; while each believes his little bit the whole to own.

Richard Francis Burton

Somebody, after all, had to make a start.
What we wrote and said is also believed by many others.
They just don't dare express themselves as we did.

Sophie Scholl

Art is the symbol of the two noblest human efforts: to construct and to refrain from destruction.
Simone Weil

Whatever pretended pessimists in search of notoriety may say, most people are naturally kind, at heart.

"If a rule prevents you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore it."
Foundational Principles against overly-controlling forces developing on the wikis.
Even if you have read them before, PLEASE EXAMINE ANEW: Wikipedia:Ignore all rules, and the other links available there, including the links delineating much which Wikipedia was NOT.
These were some of the earliest directives established by the founding workers on the Wikimedia projects.

"Ignore all rules: If rules make you nervous and depressed, and not desirous of participating in the wiki, then ignore them entirely and go about your business." ~ RulesToConsider
"IAR is policy, always has been" ~ Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales
This is an account of Kalki, who has also used many other account-names here, some since the very first days of this Wiki.

There is danger from all men. The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty.
~ John Adams ~
