the walls topped by barbed wire, it wafts across the electrified
borders.

that it has illegally occupied. We are sons of the soil and fighting
for the liberation of our soil.

fuels, and those that meet these criteria will succeed in a free

extremists who go to families who have no other option and offer

you've got all the answers, then don't call what you do 'faith.

long been dupes, easily gulled by rumors and flat-out lies.

Each man and woman - and each nation - must make decisions of
conscience and policy in the face of this great problem."
~Lyndon B. Johnson~
"Unlike plagues of the dark ages or contemporary diseases we do
not understand, the modern plague of overpopulation is soluble
by means we have discovered and with resources we posses.
What is lacking is not sufficient knowledge of the solution but
universal consciousness of the gravity of the problem and
education of the billions who are its victim."
The human overpopulation issue is the topic I see as the most
vital to solve if our children and grandchildren are to have a good
quality of life.

consumers.

vital to solve if our children and grandchildren are to have a good

SUICIDE ATTACKS
30
On our watch, the conversation with a would-be suicide bomber

will not begin with the words, 'You have the right to remain silent.'
~Mitt Romney~
The suicide bomber's imagination leads him to believe in a
brilliant act of heroism, when in fact he is simply blowing himself
up pointlessly and taking other people's lives.
~Salman Rushdie~
I've always been fascinated by the idea that there's no such
thing as evil; it's all in your point of view. To one group a suicide
bomber is the antichrist and to one he's a hero.
~Eli Roth~
The bomber will always get through. The only defense is in
offense, which means that you have to kill more women and
children more quickly than the enemy if you want to save
yourselves.
~Stanley Baldwin~
We had periodic crises in this country when the technical
intelligence didn't support the policy. We had the bomber gap, the
missile gap.

Whoever controls the media, controls the mind.
~Jim Morrison~
30

arbitrary values.

Don't hate the media, become the media.
~Jello Biafra~
The media. It sounds like a convention of spiritualists.
~Tom Stoppard~
What the mass media offers is not popular art, but entertainment
which is intended to be consumed like food, forgotten, and
replaced by a new dish.
~W. H. Auden~
Social media is not about the exploitation of technology but
service to community.
~Simon Mainwaring~
Whoever controls the media, the images, controls the culture.
~Allen Ginsberg~
FREEDOM OF SPEECH
30
If the freedom of speech is taken away then dumb and silent we

may be led, like sheep to the slaughter.

conscience, and the prudence never to practice either of them.

freedom of thought which they seldom use.
~Soren Kierkegaard~

The threat or fear of violence should not become an excuse or
justification for restricting freedom of speech.

I believe that freedom of speech and freedom of religion go
hand-in-hand in America.
~Kirk Cameron~
We should silence anyone who opposes the right to freedom of
speech.
~Boyle Roche~
I fight, and have fought, for political freedom, for justice and for
fairness and freedom of speech.
~Teresa Heinz~
OUR EXAMINATION SYSTEM

There is no greater delight than to be conscious of sincerity on
self-examination.
~Mencius~
Learn something new every day under the sun. You will never get
old if you do.
~Lois Bey~
Down through the centuries, this trick has been tried by various
establishments throughout the world. They force people to get
involved in the kind of examination that has only one aim and
that is to stamp out dissent.
~Pete Seeger~
30
Duration is not a test of truth or falsehood.

~Anne Morrow Lindbergh~
Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest

~Anonymous~
Many of lifes failures are people who did not realize how close
they were to success when they gave up.

an examination, and finish with education. The whole of life, from
the moment you are born to the moment you die, is a process of
learning.

STUDENTS UNION
Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I

going down.

A true friend freely, advises justly, assists readily, adventures
boldly, takes all patiently, defends courageously, and continues a
friend unchangeably.

Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It's not
something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the
meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything.
~Muhammad Ali~
Friends are like stars, you do not see them every time but you
know that they are there
~Anonymous~
True friends are like diamonds; precious and rare.
False friends are like leaves; found everywhere.
~Anonymous~
SCIENCE IS A CURSE
Science never solves a problem without creating 10 more.

~George Bernard~
Our scientific power has out run our spiritual power. We have
guided missiles and misguided men.
The scientific imagination always restrains itself within the limits

of probability.
30
~Thomas Huxley~
Religions that teach brotherly love have been used as an excuse
for persecution, and our profoundest scientific insight is made into
a means of mass destruction.
~Bertrand Russell~
A scientific man ought to have no wishes, no affections, - a mere
heart of stone.
~Charles Darwin~
The ordinary scientific man is strictly a sentimentalist. He is a

sentimentalist in this essential sense, that he is soaked and swept
away by mere associations.
~Gilbert K. Chesterton~
WHY I LOVE PAKISTAN

More deadly than a serpeants tooth is an ungrateful child.

~Moby~
My wife and I, we like to ride where there's not much traffic.

~David Letterman~
There is nothing worse for me than sitting in traffic.
~Joe Montana~
CORRUPTION
If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of
beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal
members who can make a difference. They are the father, the
mother and the teacher.
~Abdul Kalam~
The duty of youth is to challenge corruption.
~Kurt Cobain~
The fight for justice against corruption is never easy. It never has
been and never will be. It exacts a toll on our self, our families,
our friends, and especially our children. In the end, I believe, as in
my case, the price we pay is well worth holding on to our dignity.
30

Corruption is like a ball of snow, once it's set a rolling it must

increase.

In a state where corruption abounds, laws must be very

Everybody gets so much information all day long that they lose
their common sense.
30

~Deepak Chopra~
CHRISTMAS
He who has not Christmas in his heart will never find it under a
tree.

Christmas is not a time nor a season, but a state of mind. To
cherish peace and goodwill, to be plenteous in mercy, is to have
the real spirit of Christmas.
~Calvin Coolidge~
Christmas, my child, is love in action. Every time we love, every
time we give, it's Christmas.
~Dale Evans~
A good conscience is a continual Christmas.

Christmas waves a magic wand over this world, and behold,
