A short while back one of America's Great, Rich, Old, White Men said this -
"You got the first mainstream African American, who is Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at PhotobucketPhoto Sharing and Video Hosting at PhotobucketPhoto Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
and a nice-looking guy."

What he really meant was:

Words stand between silence and silence: between the silence of things and the silence of our own being. Between the silence of the world and the silence of God.
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
When we have really met and known the world in silence, words do not separate us from the world nor form other men, nor from God, nor from ourselves because we no longer trust entirely in language to contain reality.

There is more than the two lives he distinguished: the life of the one how suffers,Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
and the life of the one who records the suffering of others.

The third is the living dead. The good old salt of the Earth who delivers hemlock.

The Oppressor Would Not Be Strong Without Accomplices Among The Oppressed

Mystification of power is one of the forms of oppression;Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Ignorance is a situation in which man may be enclosed as narrowly as in a prison;
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
...every individual may practice his freedom inside his world, but not everyone has the means of rejecting, even by doubt, the values, taboos, and prescriptions by which he is surrounded;
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
...doubtless, respectful minds take the object of their respect for their own;
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
in this sense they are responsible for it, as they are responsible for their presence in the world: but they are not guilty if their adhesion is not a resignation of their freedom.

The notion of ambiguity must not be confused with that of absurdity.
Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

"This need not have been so. We could easily imagine people who did not have this relation to such pictures."
