Freedom is the oxygen of the soul....

Our American friends offer us money, arms, and advice. We take the money, we take the arms, and we decline the advice.

If you want to make peace, you don't talk to your friends. You talk to your enemies.

I have traveled a long road from the battlefield to the peace table.

Books were my pass to personal freedom. I learned to read at age three, and soon discovered there was a whole world to conquer that went beyond our farm in Mississippi.

Before anything else, we need a new age of Enlightenment. Our present political systems must relinquish their claims on truth, justice and freedom and have to replace them with the search for truth, justice, freedom and reason.

In my youth I stressed freedom, and in my old age I stress order. I have made the great discovery that liberty is a product of order.

Old age, calm, expanded, broad with the haughty breadth of the universe, old age flowing free with the delicious near-by freedom of death.
