"In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends."\n\nRacism was and is a continuing issue in the world today.  There is alot of hatred, and back in MLK's day, blacks did not have the same rights as whites.  They were not treated equally.  MLK fought for the civil rights movement, and wanted his word not only to be spread, but for people to also act.  I think what MLK meant by this quote is that you dont remember all the bad things and all the hatred shown by people.  But if his people were not going to stand up for their beliefs, it would be a losing battle.  He sacrified alot for all people of color, and he felt that people not willing to act at all was just as bad, or even worse, than people acting out of hatred.\n\nsorry i did not see this movie.  maybe this link can help\nhttp://www.imdb.com/name/nm0455052/\n\nomg, i just realized you were not talking about MLK!!!  lol

I really hope not. The movie was OK, but i just think we should move on with our lives and get new ideas for movies. The books were better and the movie was fine. i guess.

I would like to add one:\n\n'Thou shall not take up arms in defence of the Lord.'\n\nNow wouldn't that have changed history, if he is omnipotent he does not need us to fight his wars. Leave the politics out, and get on with getting on with other people.\n\nBe happy for the similarities, not aggressive or fearfull due to the differences.

Love is all about forgiving and forgetting, so I don't think the person who came up with this quote was very successful in his love life. In a way, I do agree with it if you love strong enough to KNOW that each other is sorry, but I'm a verbal person, so I always say I'm sorry when I am.

"Haven't you had enough of the brute, stupid, childish, and, otherwise, adolescent, exploitative representation of human (or, really, sub-human) existence that is played out daily (in the name, and on the lives, of each and every born human being) by competing governments, politicians, militarists, scientists, technocrats, social planners, educators, exoteric and fundamentalist religionists (who aggressively propagate the provincial, and pharisaical, religions of ego-salvation, rather than practice the universal, and ego-transcending, religion of love), and media hypers (who thrive on the invention and exaggeration of conflict, and dramatically showcase the worst of human instincts in the unending "gotcha" game that denudes and exposes and trivializes and hypocritically mocks the highs, and the inevitable lows, and even the natural ordinariness in the struggling efforts of humankind)? Isn't it evident, in your deepest feeling-psyche, that this Wisdom-renouncing world is being controlled by the worst and most superficial conceptions of existence?\n\nIt is now time for every one, and all, to understand themselves, and to reclaim the world from the dictatorship of the ego, and from all of those who play at politics (and life in general) as if it were a sporting event that is supposed to excite and entertain every one on television.\n\nNuclear disarmament is a relatively positive, but still too superficial and piecemeal, effort. It is not a truly curative means, but only another palliative and temporary move in the midst of mankind's traditional advance toward future trouble. There is something more fundamental than the disarmament politics whereby enemies come to a gentlemanly agreement on how to kill one another without destroying one another! What is more fundamental, necessary, and truly curative is that human beings, individually and collectively, understand and transcend that which is in them that leads them to confront one another as opponents and enemies.\n\nIt may sound naive to speak of the necessity for the present (childish, and brutishly adolescent) crowd of governments and institutions to understand themselves and renounce the self-imagery and the techniques of enemies, but the feeling that it is naive to speak in such terms is merely a reflection of egoic frustration and despair. Human beings everywhere must now transcend that very frustration and despair if they are going to prevent the enslavement and destruction of mankind.\n\nHumanity is living in bondage now. Mankind is already, presently, globally, bound to egocentric and materialistic idealisms that are suppressing the human freedom to live by Wisdom and Realize the Truth. If human beings do not shake loose from this regime, they are going to suffer the extreme fulfillment of collective egoic destiny, in a "Narcissistic" holocaust that will either enslave mankind (via a technologically robotized political and social order) or (otherwise) destroy mankind (via technologically engineered warfare).\n\nIt is not naive to demand a new leadership when those who are led (and who could make the counter-demand for change) number in the billions. Nor is it folly to try to educate mankind when the only alternative is slavery and death. Therefore, I Say to you: All must commit themselves to understand the patterns by which they are now (and have traditionally been) living (both individually and collectively), so that they can then change those patterns and the destinies those patterns will (otherwise) inevitably inflict upon them.

Once upon a time, one clever man said:\n"Who wants - looks for the ways; who does not want - looks for reasons"...\nYou *must* win the war against your laziness, or you will be unhappy in your life.

No, its not wise, but that never stopped our politicans from doing what ever they want. Most have their own agenda and pay little attention to what the people who elected them want.

I'm pretty sure it's not from Gone With the Wind. \n\nI can't seem to find any reference to it being a quote from a film. If it is a quote from somewhere then it's not easy one to find.

taken out of context, the quote's meaning is hard to dtermine with certainty.  my take is that without knowledge, people cannot "stand up" for their rights or values.\n\nin relation to bush, i guess you could say that since he has cut education spending so much, he will create a population of "empty bags" who will be easy to manipulate

There's a line from an old Marcello Mastroianni movie:\n\n"The tragedy of today's woman is that she's lost the joy of being dominated by a man"\n\nHey, he said it, not me.

Who exactly is it that defines "wise".\nBuild your house on the rock (Jesus) not on the shifting sands (ideas of men).

'love is a sickness and marriage may cure it, but the side affects are dreadful and possibly not worth living for!'\n\nI claim credit for this one and this is a better more realistic quote! what do you think?

I have not seen the movie so I am not certain what specific quotation you are seeking, but in researching this answer, have watched the movie trailer, I know I will have to see this film. \nIn the trailer she says "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure..." now I am searching for the author of that quote (insert eye-rolling smiley here!!)
