Everything starts with yourself-with you making up your mind about what you're going to do with your life.
The mind of the Buddha is perfect because it is empty and yet it contains all things.

Freedom! To fill people's mailboxes, eyes, ears and brains with commercial rubbish against their will, television programs that are impossible to watch with a sense of coherence. Freedom! To force information on people, taking no account of their right not to accept it or their right of peace of mind. Freedom! To spit in the eyes and souls of passersby with advertisements.
