“The human body resonates at the same frequency as Mother Earth. So instead of only focusing on trying to save the earth, which operates in congruence to our vibrations, I think it is more important to be one with each other. If you really want to remedy the earth, we have to mend mankind. And to unite mankind, we heal the Earth. That is the only way. Mother Earth will exist with or without us. Yet if she is sick, it is because mankind is sick and separated. And if our vibrations are bad, she reacts to it, as do all living creatures.”
― Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem

“Helper first, clever later. Rationalism has its use, but when devoid of empathy it's as useless as blind faith. Try telling a starving child, hunger is illusion; try telling a refugee, safety is delusion; philosophy detached from life is a sign of moral degeneration, not illumination - intelligence detached from empathy is the ultimate delusion.
Or better yet, come close, let me stuff your ugly militant mouth with a handful of scorching hot chili peppers, then let me give you a five hour lecture on the chemistry of H2O and its relation to life, before offering you a glass of water. First compassion, then rationalism; first humanity, then philosophy.”
