Soul World My Own

More From Victor Hugo

They called themselves the souls. they told ms. olinski that they were the souls before they were a team, but she told them that they were a team as soon as they became the souls. then after a while, teacher and team agreed that they were arguing chicken-or-egg. whichever way it began--chicken-or-egg, team-or-the souls--it definitely ended with an egg. definitely, an egg.

A democracy flirts with the danger of becoming a slave in direct ratio to the numbers of its citizens who work, but do not own / or who own, but do not work; or who distribute, as politicians do, but do not produce. the danger of the "slave state" disappears in ratio to the numbers of people who own property and admit its attendant responsibilities under god. they can call their souls their own because they own and administer something other than their souls. thus they are free.
Wisdom Responsibility Flirting
Your children are not your children. they are the sons and daughters of life's longing for itself. they come through you but not from you, and though they are with you, yet they belong not to you. you may give them your love, but not your thoughts. for they have their own thoughts. you may house their bodies but not their souls, for their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams. you may strive to be like them, but seek not to make them like you. for life goes not backward, nor tarries with yesterday.

It is important for america that the moral truths which make freedom possible should be passed on to each new generation. every generation of americans needs to know that freedom consists not in doing what we like, but in having the right to do what we ought. ... christ asks us to guard the truth because, as he promised us: "you will know the truth and the truth will make you free." depositum custodi! we must guard the truth that is the condition of authentic freedom, the truth that allows freedoms to be fulfilled in goodness. we must guard the deposit of divine truth handed down to us.

You catch any white man off guard in here right now, you catch him off guard and ask him what he is, he doesn't say he's an american. he either tells you he's irish, or he's italian, or he's german, if you catch him off guard and he doesn't know what you're up to. and even though he was born here, he'll tell you he's italian. well, if he's italian, you and i are african even though we were born here.
