Animals are constantly teaching us things about ourselves and the way of the universe, but most people are too blind to watch and listen.

    "Rise Up and Salute the Sun". Book by Suzy Kassem, 2010.

Nor is it concerned in absolutes, eternities, "forms," beyond those that may reside in the context of the human being and be subject to his vicissitudes. Art is not an inner state of consciousness, whatever that may mean. Neither is it essentially a supreme form of communication. Art is human behavior, and its values are contained in human behavior.

    Viola Spolin (1999). “Improvisation for the Theater: A Handbook of Teaching and Directing Techniques”, p.50, Northwestern University Press

  • I am now convinced that children should not be subjected to the frightfulness of the Christian religion [...]. If the concept of a father who plots to have his own son put to death is presented to children as beautiful and as worthy of society's admiration, what types of human behavior can be presented to them as reprehensible?

    Class   Evil   Poverty
