Economy is the basis of society. When the economy is stable, society develops. The ideal economy combines the spiritual and the material, and the best commodoties to trade in are sincerity and love.

"The Art of Peace" by Morihei Ueshiba, translated by John Stevens

Trains To Brazil

You feel low

It's 1 o'clock on a Friday morning
I'm trying to keep my back from the wall
The prophets and their bombs have had another success
And I'm wondering why we bother at all

And I think of you on cold winter mornings
Darling, they remind me of when we were at school
Nothing really matter when you called out my name, in fact
Nothing really mattered at all

And I think about how long it will take them to blow us away
But I won't get me down
I'm just thankful to be facing the day
'Cause days don't get you far when you're gone

It's five o'clock on a Friday morning
One hundred telephones shake and ring
And one of them is from someone who knew you

And I still think of you on cold winter mornings
Darling, they still remind me of when we were at school
When they could never have persuaded me that lives like yours
Were in the hands of these erroneous fools

And to those of you who moan your lives through one day to the next
Well, let them take you next
Can't you live and be thankful you're here?
See, it could be you tomorrow, next year

Do you think that you can take over the universe and improve it?
I do not believe it can be done.

The universe is sacred.
You cannot improve it.
If you try to change it, you will ruin it.
If you try to hold it, you will lose it.

So sometimes things are ahead and sometimes they are behind;
Sometimes breathing is hard, sometimes it comes easily;
Sometimes there is strength and sometimes weakness;
Sometimes one is up and sometimes down.

Therefore the sage avoids extremes, excesses, and complacency.
