In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don't try to control. In work, do what you enjoy.

As has always been the case in this country, if the people demand change, it will come  (Governing Quotes) Climate change is the biggest governing challenge we face. It’s the biggest governing challenge I think we’ve ever faced  (Governing Quotes) Under socialism all will govern in turn and will soon become accustomed to no one governing  (Governing Quotes) In taking stock of a politician, the first question is not whether he was a good man who used righteous means, but whether he was successful in gaining power, in keeping it, and in governing; whether, in short, he was skilful at his particular craft or a bungler  (Governing Quotes) Whoever would not remain in complete ignorance of the resources which cause him to act; whoever would seize, at a single philosophical glance, the nature of man and animals, and their relations to external objects; whoever would establish, on the intellectual and moral functions, a solid doctrine of mental diseases, of the general and governing influence of the brain in the states of health and disease, should know, that it is indispensable, that the study of the organization of the brain should march side by side with that of its functions  (Governing Quotes) We are the planet, fully as much as water, earth, fire and air are the planet, and if the planet survives, it will only be through heroism.
