Journey into Now Quotes

“There are six billion egos living on this planet. Can you not see why the world is in such a sorry state? Can you not see why we are destroying Heaven on Earth for our own short-term gain? Can you not see why the tiger and the gorilla are facing extinction, along with countless other species?

I’m right.” “How can I use this or make use of this?” “What’s in it for me?” You”
