F. Scott Fitzgerald
“Before I go on with this short history, let me make a general observationâ€� the test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function.
One should, for example, be able to see that things are hopeless and yet be determined to make them otherwise. This philosophy fitted on to my early adult life, when I saw the improbable, the implausible, often the "impossible," come true.”
F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Crack-Up

Laurence Galian
“Alien Parasites are what the Gnostics call 'Archons.' They cause delusions in people's thinking because they convince their victims to believe things that are not true. A delusional person has false or unrealistic beliefs or opinions. A delusional person is someone who has a belief that is held with an extremely strong conviction despite superior evidence to the contrary. Now, this trait may be a brave attributes, but the delusional person refuses to listen and consider the opposite opinion. The mature and wise individual always is willing to listen to an opposing opinion, and actually is eager to hear the opposing point of view, in order to make sure his or her theories and beliefs can withstand all opposing ideas and to revise his or her ideas if necessary.”
Laurence Galian, Alien Parasites: 40 Gnostic Truths to Defeat the Archon Invasion!

Marcus Aurelius
“How cruel it is not to allow a man to strive after the things which appear to them to be suitable to their nature and profitable! And yet in a manner thou dost not allow them to do this, when thou art vexed because they do wrong. For they are certainly moved towards things because they suppose them to be suitable to their nature and profitable to them - But it is not so - Teach them, then, and show them without being angry.”
Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

Hajime Isayama
“I will hold freedom in my hands by taking it from this world. But from you, I will take nothing. You are all free. You are all free to oppose me, and defend the world's freedom. Just as I am free to move forwards. Our convictions can never be reconciled, and our wills will not bend. There is only one way for this to be resolved. Fight.”
Hajime Isayama

Richelle E. Goodrich
“Individuals can hold differing beliefs and still be friends. They can keep opposing opinions and still love each other dearly. Believe me, my family and I do not share all the same views or beliefs, yet I love them more than life.”
