Not everyone is a star, Freddie. What are you afraid of? You can’t get anywhere pretending to be someone you’re not. You’ll regret it. No one will play Queen.

This is real. This life. We’re really here - this is really happening. Suffering is real. When you hurt people, it’s real.

Progress is never permanent, will always be threatened, must be redoubled, restated and reimagined if it is to survive.

The incomparable Zadie Smith on optimism and despair – superb read, particularly at this cultural moment.  (via explore-blog)

Don’t fear failure. Fear being in the same place in a year from now.

Civil disobedience is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of leaders…and millions have been killed because of this obedience…Our problem is that people are obedient allover the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves… (and) the grand thieves are running the country. That’s our problem.

Howard Zinn (via onceuponawildflower)
