More From Paul Gauguin

To reconcile conflicting parties, we must have the ability to understand the suffering of both sides. if we take sides, it is impossible to do the work of reconciliation. and humans want to take sides. that is why the situation gets worse and worse. are there people who are still available to both sides? they need not do much. they need do only one thing: go to one side and tell all about the suffering endured by the other side, and go to the other side and tell all about the suffering endured by this side. this is our chance for peace. but how many of us are able to do that?

Rogue states are the main threat to peace and freedom, and they require a strong, comprehensive policy response - a policy that i call 'rogue state rollback,' in which our goal is not simply to contain rogue regimes, but to drive them from power.

Do you want a sign that you're asleep? here it is: you're suffering. suffering is a sign that you're out of touch with the truth. suffering is given to you that you might open your eyes to the truth, that you might understand that there's falsehood somewhere, just as physical pain is given to you so you will understand that there is disease or illness somewhere. suffering occurs when you clash with reality. when your illusions clash with reality, when your falsehoods clash with truth, then you have suffering. otherwise there is no suffering.

The discipline of suffering, of great suffering- do you not know that only this discipline has created all enhancements of man so far? that tension of the soul in unhappiness which cultivates its strength, its shudders face to face with great ruin, its inventiveness and courage in enduring, preserving, interpreting, and exploiting suffering, and whatever has been granted to it of profundity, secret, mask, spirit, cunning, greatness- was it not granted to it through suffering, through the discipline of great suffering?

Reconciliation is to understand both sides; to go to one side and describe the suffering being endured by the other side, and then go to the other side and describe the suffering being endured by the first side.

I don't consider myself an expert in the why. i don't consider myself an expert in leadership. i consider myself a student of leadership and i consider myself a student of the why. i'm constantly learning and i'm constantly looking for opportunities where it it will fail.

The most interesting biofuel efforts avoid using land that's expensive and has high opportunity costs. they do this by getting onto other types of land, or taking advantage of byproducts that aren't used in the food chain today, or by intercropping.
