Quote of the moment
Regarding intergender relationships, I see two principal types of relationships based on sexual attraction. One form is pure sexual desire in which the motive or impetus is temporary satisfaction, a sort of immediate gratification. But it is not very reliable or stable because the individuals are relating to each other not as people, but rather as objects.

In the second type, attraction is not predominantly physical. Rather, there is an underlying respect and appreciation of the value of the other person, based on one's feeling that the other person is kind, nice, and gentle. One can therefore accord respect and dignity to that other individual.

~ The Path to Tranquility, August 24, 14th Dalai Lama ~

Quote of the moment
There is a drunkenness from the power that we give ourselves over things. This drunkenness leads us to stop controlling our appetites. We want more and still more. Instead of quelling the fire, we reignite it. Instead of seeking inner disarmament - the only kind that counts - we multiply our tools of conquest. And we even forget to check whether the fulfillment of our desire is really the one we had wished for.
~ The Path to Tranquility, May 15, 14th Dalai Lama ~

Liberty: The history of liberty is a history of resistance. The history of liberty is a history of the limitation of governmental power, not the increase of it.
~ Woodrow Wilson ---Address to New York Press Club, September 9, 1912. ~
