"If we are to better the future we must disturb the present"

 Catherine Booth quotes

     "People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain."

 Jim Morrison quotes (American poet and singer. Member of the American band The Doors and one of rock music's mythic figures. 1943-1971)

     "The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naïve and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who likes his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair."

 Henry Louis Mencken quotes (American humorous journalist and critic of American life who influenced US fiction through the 1920s, 1880-1956)

     "Men are disturbed not by things, but by the views which they take of them"

 Epictetus quotes (Greek philosopher associated with the Stoics, AD 55-c.135)
