In the depth of winter I finally learned that within me lay an invincible summer.
~ Albert Camus
In an ever-changing, incomprehensible world the masses had reached
the point where they would, at the same time, believe everything and
nothing, think that everything was possible and nothing was true… The
totalitarian mass leaders based their propaganda on the correct
psychological assumption that, under such conditions, one could make
people believe the most fantastic statements one day, and trust that if
the next day they were given irrefutable proof of their falsehood, they
would take refuge in cynicism; instead of deserting the leaders who had
lied to them, they would protest that they had known all along that the
statement was a lie and would admire the leaders for their superior
tactical cleverness.
Stay hungry, stay focused, be patient, love yourself, know what your trying to do with yourself, have a goal list and start checking things off.
