Every pain gives you a lesson and all you need is to make sure that instead of thinking about the ache, you should start changing your perspective this time and think of the lessons that you have got from that failure so that you do not repeat the same mistakes again.

Karl Heinrich Marx FRSA (German: [maʁks]; 5 May 1818 – 14 March 1883) was a German philosopher, critic of political economy, economist, historian, sociologist, political theorist, journalist and socialist revolutionary. His best-known titles are the 1848 pamphlet The Communist Manifesto and the three-volume Das Kapital (1867–1883). Marx's political and philosophical thought had enormous influence on subsequent intellectual, economic, and political history. His name has been used as an adjective, a noun, and a school of social theory.

PHILOSOPHY DEFINED

 

"Philosophy is indeed just the doctrine that is meant to liberate man from an infinite number of finite purposes and goals, and to make him indifferent to them such that it is indeed all the same to him whether such things are or not."

G. W. F. Hegel

"We will be more successful in all our endeavors if we can let go of the habit of running all the time, and take little pauses to relax and re-center ourselves. And we'll also have a lot more joy in living." 

Thich Nhat Hanh

Vegan Ideas

 

“The highest virtue consists in the non-killing of animals” 

Swami Abhedanda, Hindu Philosopher

“I do feel that spiritual progress does demand at some stage that we should cease to kill our fellow creatures for the satisfaction of our bodily wants.”

⁃Gandhi

“No animals need to die in order for me to live. And that makes me feel good.”

-Howard Lyman

“A man can live and be healthy without killing animals for food; therefore, if he eats meat, he participates in taking animal life merely for the sake of his appetite. And to act so is immoral.”

-Leo Tolstoy, Author

“You have just dined. And however scrupulously the slaughterhouse is concealed in the graceful distance of miles, there is complicity” 

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

“If a man aspires towards a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from injury to animals”

⁃Albert Einstein

“Animals share with us the privilege of having a soul”

-Pythagoras

“Think occasionally of the suffering of which you spare yourself the sight”

-Albert Schweitzer

“We need, in a special way, to work twice as hard to help people understand that the animals are fellow creatures, that we must protect them and love them as we love ourselves.”

-Cesar Chavez

“[Going Vegan] is not about giving anything up or losing anything; it is about gaining the peace within yourself that comes from embracing nonviolence and refusing to participate in the exploitation of the vulnerable”

-Gary Francione

Lies

 

Sculptor Christophe Charbonnel

 

"A lie always writhes like a snake, which is never straight, whether it crawls or lies at rest; only when it is dead, it is straight and does not pretend."

- Martin Luther (1483 -1546) — German priest, theologian, writer and hymn writer.
