"i can see this about america
the mind control is steep here, man
the myopia is deep here

and behold
those that try to expose the reality
who really try to realize democracy
are shot with rubber bullets and gassed off the streets
while the global power brokers are kept clean and discrete"

"Is there a point to all this? Let's find a point. Is there a point to my act? I would say there is. I have to. The world is like a ride at an amusement park and when you chose to go on it you think it's real 'cause thats how powerful our minds are and the ride goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly colored and it's very loud and it's fun for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question 'is this real or is it just a ride?' and other people have remembered and the come back to us and they say 'Hey don't worry don't be afraid ever because this is just a ride' and we...kill them.
(change in voice)
'Shut him up we have a lot invested in this ride shut him up. Look at my furrows of worry. Look at my big bank account and my family. This has to be real.'

It's just a ride. But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that. Did you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok.

But it doesn't matter because it's just a ride and we can change it anytime we want. It's only a choice. No effort. No Work. No Job. No saving of money a choice right now...between the eyes of fear and love.

The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one.

Here's what we can do to change the world right now to a better ride. Take all that money that we spend on weapons and defense each year and instead spend it on feeding, clothing, and educating the poor of the world which it would many times over. Not ONE person excluded...and we can explore space together both inner and outer forever in peace."

"When a person places the proper value on freedom, there is nothing under the sun that he will not do to acquire that freedom. Whenever you hear a man saying he wants freedom, but in the next breath he is going to tell you what he won't do to get it, or what he doesn't believe in doing in order to get it, he doesn't believe in freedom. A man who believes in freedom will do anything under the sun to acquire... or preserve his freedom."
