• La creciente diversidad étnica de este siglo, una época en la que todos seremos minorías, nos ofrece una invitación a crear una memoria más amplia de lo que somos como estadounidenses y a reafirmar nuestro principio fundacional de igualdad. Dejemos a un lado los temores a la desunión de América y las advertencias sobre el choque de civilizaciones. Como cantaba Langston Hughes, dejemos que América sea América, donde la igualdad está en el aire que respiramos.

• Ciertamente, uno de los privilegios que Dios nos ha concedido es el derecho a elegir cuál será nuestra actitud ante cualquier circunstancia. Podemos dejar que los acontecimientos que nos rodean determinen nuestras acciones, o podemos tomar las riendas personalmente y regir nuestras vidas, utilizando como guía los principios de la religión pura. La religión pura es aprender el evangelio de Jesucristo y luego ponerlo en acción. Nada será realmente beneficioso para nosotros hasta que lo incorporemos a nuestras vidas.

• PRACTICE OF THE Art of Peace is an act of faith, a belief in the ultimate power of nonviolence. It is faith in the power of purification and faith in the power of life itself. It is not a type of rigid discipline or empty asceticism. It is a path that follows natural principles, principles, that must be applied to daily living. The Art of Peace should be practiced from the time you rise to greet the morning to the time you retire at night.

  Morihei Ueshiba

• The incipient magician will confess his faith to a universal religion. He will find out that every religion has good points as well as bad ones. He will therefore keep the best of it for himself and ignore the weak points, which does not necessarily mean that he must profess a religion, but he shall express awe to each for of worship, for each religion has its proper principle of God, whether the point in question be Christianity, Buddhism, Islam or any other kind of religion.

• Las actividades y efectos de los elementos Fuego y Aire en la esfera astral producen el fluido astral-eléctrico, y las actividades y efectos de los elementos Agua y Tierra producen el fluido astral-magnético. Los seres espirituales utilizan estos fluidos para crear los efectos o, mejor dicho, las causas en nuestro mundo físico. El Principio Akasha de la esfera astral mantiene el equilibrio armónico de los elementos en toda la esfera astral.

• By doing what our assailant least expects us to do, we may throw him completely off. ... what he usually least suspects is instant, violent counterattack, so the principle of aggressiveness is closely tied to threat of surprise.

• For me, the involvement of states in our national effort is not just because of their constitutional and legal responsibilities. It is also stems from a basic management principle. The chances of success are higher when we create a sense of participation for everyone; when we give everyone a stake in success.

• Our world is guided by two principles and sources: God and the devil. All that is better in the world of men has its source in God, and all that is bad has the devil as its principle and source. In the final account, all good comes from God, and all evil from the devil.

• Every time there has been an attempt to disturb it, it led to two things. It led to immediate intense conflict with China, and it led to a reaffirmation in the end, because nobody wanted a major confrontation with China to this principle of a "one China" policy within which Taiwan is finding a place now. Its own position has greatly improved since the Nixon policy. It is richer, it is stronger and it is participating in many international organizations.

• He dicho que hay tres principios que deberían seguirse. En primer lugar, debemos mantener la política de "una sola China" que han articulado todos los presidentes estadounidenses, incluido el Presidente Reagan. En segundo lugar, debemos dejar claro que queremos una resolución pacífica. Y tercero, Taiwán no debe desafiar ese acuerdo de forma que provoque un conflicto. Son tres principios perfectamente claros. No he utilizado ninguno de los otros eslóganes.

• I do not know what will happen in China politically. I do know that it is impossible to maintain the communist system or probably even a strict one-party system when the economy becomes so pluralistic. Now, what form that takes and what institutions will evolve, I do not have a clear view about. I do not think the United States, as a general principle, ought to intervene in this.

• Of course, in principle, they're against it. We are the ones that keep asking them what they think about it. I think their basic concern is a land-based missile defense of Taiwan hooked into the American communications and other systems, which in effect would make Taiwan then an outpost of the United States. That is a concern they frequently express. A missile defense shield of the United States, while they may not like it, it is not a big obstacle to our relationship.

• I don't know what happens in the next years. But I cannot now design a policy in which we try to keep China from developing, because in some years, if they develop, they might be rich enough to challenge us, and adopt the principle that we will hold down any state that might in the future become strong. That would make us a world empire for which we wouldn't have the talents or the convictions.

• When the rich plunder the poor of his rights, it becomes an example for the poor to plunder the rich of his property, for the rights of the one are as much property to him as wealth is property to the other, and the little all is as dear as the much. It is only by setting out on just principles that men are trained to be just to each other; and it will always be found, that when the rich protect the rights of the poor, the poor will protect the property of the rich. But the guarantee, to be effectual, must be parliamentarily reciprocal.

• Los modales o la etiqueta ("accesibilidad, afabilidad, cortesía, refinamiento, propiedad, cortesía y comportamiento congraciador y cautivador") no exigen una gran determinación moral y, por tanto, no pueden considerarse virtudes. Aunque los modales no son virtudes, son un medio para desarrollar la virtud.... Cuanto más refinamos los elementos brutos de nuestra naturaleza, más mejoramos nuestra humanidad y más capaz se vuelve de sentir la fuerza motriz de los principios virtuosos.

• My experience has taught me, and it has become a principle with me, that it is never any benefit to give out and out, to man or woman, money, food, clothing, or anything else. If they are able-bodied and can work and earn what they need, when there is anything on earth for them to do. This is my principle and I try to act upon it. To pursue a contrary course would ruin any community in the world and make them idlers.

• The works of nature and the works of revelation display religion to mankind in characters so large and visible that those who are not quite blind may in them see and read the first principles and most necessary parts of it and from thence penet into those infinite depths filled with the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

• The truth which has made us free will in the end make us glad also. Every outcry against the oppression of some people by other people, or against what is morally hideous is the affirmation of the principle that a human being as such is not to be violated. A human being is not to be handled as a tool but is to be respected and revered.

  Felix Adler
