Just Thinking ....

*******************************
"Umno people are losers.
They want to blindfold us .... before they fight us.
And when we hit back and hurt them they cry.......
Brader...... This is about ABU
(‘anything but Umno’ or ‘asal bukan Umno’).
This is about kicking Umno out come the next general election.
Anything but Umno!
So let the game begin!"
~
RPK, "A taste of your own medicine"

"Amanah is seen as pro-govt and MCLM as anti-govt.
At this point, both must form an alliance and
become non-partisan for the good of the rakyat."

Philosophy, like art...
It has no survival value;

rather it is one of those things
that give value to survival.

-C. S. Lewis


"I find the great thing in this world
is not so much where we stand,
as in what direction we are moving
- we must sail sometimes with the wind
and sometimes against it
- but we must sail,
and not drift,
nor lie at anchor."

-- Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.


"One ship drives east and another drives west,
With the selfsame winds that blow.

'Tis the set of the sails, and not the gales

Which tells us the way to go.

"Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate,

As we voyage along through life:
'Tis the set of the soul which decides its goal,

And not the calm or the strife."

-- Ella Wheeler Wilcox (Poet, 1850-1919)

Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised
for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.

-C. S. Lewis
