I would rather invest in a moral man regardless of his abilities than invest in intelligent men regardless of his morality. We call it humility but it can also be described as endlessness. There are those of us who wish to be done and those of us who wish to journey. And it is only the latter who have any chance. One can be wise because of life’s lessons. Or one can possess traits of the wise despite lacking those lessons. The wise recognize the behavior no matter how it was learned: by accident or by trial and error. It matters not your age it matters only that you possess humility and discipline.

Defining Revolution. Is Huntington or Aristotle (Or another) Right?
—“A revolution is a rapid, fundamental, and violent domestic change in the dominant values and myths of a society, in its political institutions, social structure, leadership. and government activity and policies. Revolutions are thus to be distinguished from insurrections, rebellions, revolts, coups, and wars of independence. A coup d’etat in itself changes only leadership and perhaps policies; a rebellion of insurrection may change policies, leadership, and political institutions, but no social structure and values; a war of independence is a struggle of one community against rule by an alien community and does not necessarily involve changes in the social structure of either community. What is here called simply “revolution” is what others have called great revolutions, grand revolutions, or social revolutions. Notable examples are the French, Chinese, Mexican, Russian, and Cuban revolutions.”— Samuel Huntington
[B]y Huntington’s criteria, is it revolution I (we) pursue? I did not think so. But at this point I do. For the restoration of truth telling, the suppression of political parasitism, the conversion of information to a commons, the imposition of strict construction, and the imposition of market government, and the eliminationgn of politicians, all are fundamental changes in the postwar feminist/socialist epoch. Even if they are restorations of the anglo saxon order.

Sometimes, we must make hard choices.
Sometimes we must make hard choices. Because there are no easy choices left to make. When we do, that which we valued above all the day before, we may not value the day after. I am as much a fool as any other fellow. My folly is in things that others find trivial. Just as others folly is in things I find trivial. But I am as guilty of folly as the next man.

You are not safe. We will have no mercy.
“[D]ear Leftists. You are not safe. You never were. You never can be. That is your greatest folly. We have been patient. But we will come for you. And when we come for you, we will have no mercy.

Our Roles In Revolution
1) Ideas required of Philosophers, Prophets and Kings. 2) Strategy required of Leaders. 3) Plans required of Organizers. 4) Belief is required of Followers. —“Your list is complete, because the reverse is true.. If you have ideas, you become a philosopher If you have a strategy, you become a leader If you produce plans, you become an organiser. If you have belief/faith in others you can be a follower… There is nothing stopping one from being all these things at once… If I have belief and can create ideas, plans and strategies, I make a good soldier for any organisation.” —Tobias Darby
