Power of Images...

Our liberty depends on

the freedom of the press,

and that cannot be limited

without being lost

- Thomas Jefferson

Very great leaders...

Very great leaders in their domains are only known to exist.

Those next best are loved and praised.

The lesser are feared and despised.

Therefore when faith is insufficient and there is disbelief,

It is from the high value placed on words.

Works are accomplished, tasks are completed,

and ordinary folk all say

They are acting spontaneously

-Tao (Translation by Thomas Cleary)
