“Organized religion is making Christianity political rather than making politics Christian.”
Laurens Van der Post
“We have known for a long time that Prince Charles' empty sails are so rigged as to be swelled by any passing waft or breeze of crankiness and cant. He fell for the fake anthropologist Laurens van der Post. He was bowled over by the charms of homeopathic medicine. He has been believably reported as saying that plants do better if you talk to them in a soothing and encouraging way.”
Christopher Hitchens“Modern man has lost the sense of wonderabout the unknown and he treats it asan enemy.”
Laurens van der Post, Patterns of Renewal“Often I have found that the one thing that can save is the thing which appears most to threaten ... one has to go down into what one most fears and in that process ... comes a saving flicker of light and energy that even if it does not produce the courage of a hero at any rate enables a trembling mortal to take one step further.”
Laurens Van der Post“Organized religion is making Christianity political rather than making politics Christian.”
Laurens Van der Post“[The official prosecutors] ... were more vengeful on behalf of our injuries than I myself could ever be.”
Sir Laurens van der Post“It's the not-yet in the now, the taste of the fruit that does not-yet exist, hanging the blossom on the bough.”
