Donald Rumsfeld

 

We have no other choice, we have no power to stop the [U.S.] planes, if we could, if I could ... we would stop them and bring them down.

Bergman was the first to bring metaphysics — religion, death, existentialism — to the screen. ... But the best of Bergman is the way he speaks of women, of the relationship between men and women. He’s like a miner digging in search of purity.

 

Ingmar Bergman

 

Don't talk back;
Just drive the car.
Shut your mouth;
I know what you are.
Don't say nothing;
Keep your hands on the wheel.
Don't turn around;
This is for real.
Digging in the dirt.
Stay with me, I need support.
I'm digging in the dirt
To find the places I got hurt.
Open up the places I got hurt.

 

Peter Gabriel

 

Any mundane activity can become meditative. Digging a hole in the garden, planting new roses in the garden — you can do it with such tremendous love and compassion, you can do it with the hands of a buddha. There is no contradiction ... I say unto you, your every act should be a ceremony. If you can bring your consciousness, your awareness, your intelligence to the act, if you can be spontaneous, then there is no need for any other religion: life itself will be the religion.
