Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone.

It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.

The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities.

It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population.

It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some 50 miles of concrete highway.

We pay for a single fighter plane with a half million bushels of wheat.

We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people.

This, I repeat, is the best way of life to be found on the road. the world has been taking.

This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.

It always feels like all the wrong people die, but I think it’s because there are far more beloved people than there are bastards.

Organizations like Spotify, Uber and OpenAI are not businesses, in the conventional sense of a profit-making enterprise. They're sort of more like terraforming plants, burning investment to create a social change.

The point of Ellison's CBS News is not to run a news organization, but to destroy one

We need to be ready to fight saying β€œwe won’t let them do that,” not citing laws and saying β€œthey can’t do that”

YOU - Suffering will only make me stronger.

ENDURANCE - It's probably this way of thinking that got you where you are.

The existence of disaster (bad star) implies the existence of euaster (good star). A sudden, cataclysmic harmonizationβ€”the correction of all things, a moment of violent alignment
