LISTEN, LITTLE MAN!

by juani913

“I am neither a white nor a black nor a red nor a yellow. I am neither a Christian nor a Jew nor a Mohammedan nor a Mormon. I embrace a woman because I Love and desire her, not because I have a marriage certificate or because I’m sex-starved. I don’t beat children. I don’t fish or hunt, even though I’m a good shot and enjoy shooting at targets. I don’t play bridge and I don’t give parties to air my ideas. If my ideas are sound, they’ll air themselves… I observe to the letter all laws that make sense but combat those that are obsolete or absurd. I want children and young people to enjoy physical love without hindrance. I do not believe that to be religious in the best authentic sense, a man has to destroy his love life and mummify himself, body and soul. I know that what you call “GOD” really exists, but not in the form you think; GOD Is primal cosmic energy, the love in your body, your integrity, and your perception of the nature in you and outside of you.

-Wilhelm Reich
