''All delusions become a state of Mind, firmly fixed, therefore we are no more than the activities of our Mind.''

''Human beings since 'day one' has always idolised gods

{with a small 'g' and one with a very big 'G'}

that he himself has created from his own mind,

if none of the above ever happened we as human beings

would treat our fellow human beings as human beings.''

''Now it seems that everywhere in the world 'peace' is no more than a stressful intermission in war between countries.''

''A 'good' politician should know that a victory won in politics is the beginning of a
'hard road' ... which means he still
has a lot of work to do.''

''All art can influence people in some way or other to take a look at life outside of
'The Box' but, both for the artist and the viewer it requires courage to listen to your
first impressions.''

 

My story-box sculpture ... 'The Gun That Shot John Doe'.

''All things, including people, as we
know them have natural lifespans
and it's not for another human to
interfere in one's life-journey,
but in every second it has
already happened.''

''How many times have you heard that

history has a way of repeating itself ..

well that may be so but do we learn from it.''

''Bitter conflicts between human beings 

are passed like heritable diseases

from one generation to the next ... 

I should know, I am Irish.''

''The United Nations may be making efforts to find ways in containing the international trade and manufacture in arms but wars make money and money brings power and power makes politicians and politicians are in the United Nations.''

''Anger shows weakness.''

''You cannot change the mind of fanatics
and fools because reason cannot enter
a closed mind.''

''Right now in this very moment of time you are both living and dying at the same time.''

''The Artist holds the licence to bring to life

the imagination, to enter the world

where dreams come to life

and help make others see outside of the box.''

''Life comes with no guarantees but don't be afraid to take chances because miracles happen everyday and this could be your day.''

''Every thought you have carries
'it's' opposite with it.''

''A man can travel the world ten times over and never leave his mind,

so it's best to try to move up to first class.''

''You cannot avoid what destiny has planed for you.''
