It is my opinion that everything must be based on a simple idea. And it is my opinion that this idea, once we have finally discovered it, will be so compelling, so beautiful, that we will say to one another, yes, how could it have been any different.

This party will not take its position based on public opinion polls. We will not take a stand based on focus groups. We will not take a stand based on phone-in shows or householder surveys or any other vagaries of pubic opinion.

An Idea
An Idea can change the world, how many
things can be done from an idea, every piece
of object was an idea, sense the beginning of
time idea was the first thought created in the
mind, an idea is what surround’s every being.
But an idea is still only an idea and it can't be
felt, you cannot touch an idea or kiss it, or hold it,
ideas do not bleed or feel pain or love, an idea
cannot be seen or heard, its created in our thoughts,
but then again an idea can become real. An idea
can be what ever you which it to be, an idea can
be destructive, an idea can be brilliant, I've seen
people get killed in the name of ideas, ideas,
we walk around with a little
light bulb blinking in our thoughts, ideas.

Ch 01 Manner of Kings Story 31
The veziers of Nushirvan happened to discuss an important affair of state, each giving his opinion according to his knowledge. The king likewise gave his opinion and Barzachumihr concurred with it. Afterwards the veziers secretly asked him: "What superiority hast thou discovered in the opinion of the king above so many other reflections of wise men?" The philosopher replied: "Since the termination of the affair is unknown and it depends upon the will of God whether the opinion of the others will turn out right or wrong, it was better to agree with the opinion of the king so that, if it should turn out to have been wrong, we may, on account of having followed it, remain free from blame."
To proffer an opinion contrary to the king’s
Means to wash the hands in one’s own blood.
Should he in plain day say it is night,
It is meet to shout: "Lo, the moon and the pleiads!"
Critics in Our Life
When someone criticizes you, listen,
It means your subconscious created a burden.
Can mean that you are wrong or it is just fear of success,
Anyhow, you must look into it, find the truth, be fearless.
This world is full of critics
You find them everywhere in every topics.
There is a saying: if you tell your truth of opposition
They will chop your head in for their own protection.
Sure, nobody likes to hear what is not their idea,
And get mad when someone is opposing their area.
However, we are here on earth to edit each other
When someone say something, listen & see if their idea is better.
Sometimes it is just your own mind questioning what goes on,
So, be ready to stand up for your idea or be over run.
If they can convince you that their idea is wiser or better
Be flexible, humble and be their follower.
But, when you see someone who just want to pick on you
And you feel in this moment their idea for you is untrue,
Stand up, thank them, but let them know your answer,
That too bad, in this moment they are not your way shower.
It can happen later in your life existence,
You find they were right, then make a change in your intelligence,
But until you are not quite understand
Stand up for your own opinion, that I can recommend.

Just For A Day
You have no idea what it’s like
To be the oldest
No idea what it’s like
To be exiled
You have no idea what it’s like
To be unnoticed
No idea what it’s like
To be me
So I suggest you put on my mask
For a while
Just for a year, for a month
For a day
So you can see
What it’s like
To be me
You can finally feel
My positions
Feel your weakness
In times like mine
How your feelings compress
All together
When you don’t say anything,
But hang your head
You have no idea what a poor opinion I have of myself and how little I deserve it.

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life - think of it, dream of it, live on idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.

IF I Wished to Kiss Your Lips
That's absolutely foolish of you,
To believe I would have 'no' opinion...
After telling you twice,
I wish I could see more of your eyes.
I think they are beautiful.
But those eyelashes.
They are much too long.
If the flies are using them to land...
AND take off as if you provide them with,
A runway.
And I am looking at this as if,
You are pretending not to notice it.
And you expect me not to express my opinion?
That's absolutely foolish of you,
To believe I would have 'no' opinion...
After telling you twice,
I wish I could see more of your eyes.
I think they are beautiful.
I do.
I said nothing about you,
Having too much makeup on.
Did I?
However,
IF I wished to kiss your lips...
I wouldn't know whether or not,
I should first make a reservation.

All systems of morality are based on the idea that an action has consequences that legitimize or cancel it. A mind imbued with the absurd merely judges that those consequences must be considered calmly. It is ready to pay up. In other words, there may be responsible persons, but there are no guilty ones, in its opinion. At very most, such a mind will consent to use past experience as a basis for its future actions.

Everyone should have their own opinion and be able to voice it. No matter what it is. Of course, that does not mean your opinion is always right. But, you're certainly entitled to your opinion.

It is remarkable by how much a pinch of malice enhances the penetrating power of an idea or an opinion. Our ears, it seems, are wonderfully attuned to sneers and evil reports about our fellow men.

I like the idea that people have formed their own opinions. And of course once people meet me or talk to me their opinion totally changes because I'm much more that girl that you hang out with than you think.

Right to differ
Its basic concept abut not the idea new,
May differ in ideas but not to ask for renew,
Press for follow up but not for review,
No need to learn and appear for interview,
Idea inherent and need not teach,
No one should think and go for breach,
Confined to self and can within reach,
Well confined thought but not to preach,
Imposing a will may be termed as autocrat,
Cleverly used in same form by beurocrate,
May also be used with brutality on mob irate,
Condemnable but words may be less to narrate,
Yu may think otherwise and differ,
Solutions many and ideas many to offer,
May continue to rage when see the people suffer,
Perception come in fore to act as buffer,
Many may not reconcile and meekly submit,
May be many lapses and but not to permit,
Will be a crucial factor but not earnestly followed,
Given broad approval but strictly not allowed,
Individuals may differ bit has less weight age,
Opinion may air but find no prominence and footage,
When perception gain support and momentum,
Nothing can stop from moving the pendulum
Rome was not built in a day,
Many perished and were kept at bay,
Path was open but foundation stone was to lay,
Concentration of thoughts and more attention to pay,
When seen logic behind the trusted opinion?
Always takes form in formation of union,
Emerge strong voice from far end of oblivion,
There leaves no way to go back to the pavilion,
It is age old theory and shall remain so,
Will follow strong reaction and torture also,
Leaving half way may turn ship in turtle,
Vigorous follow up may earn the title,
Continue to differ is always healthy sign,
One may offer resistance but finally resign,
It may have definite start and concrete result,
Even if turned the idea down may not find insult,
You will find hardly all may like it,
Light may spread when lamp is lit,
Common good may prevail and nobody is hit,
Recognition finally and no tools there to prohibit,
Such is vast concept should be dealt with aptness,
All views taken into account with firm kindness,
Nothing takes away basis right to differ,
Must have reasonableness and no resistance stiffer,

What I love about new technology is that it really pushes the art. It really pushes it in a way that you can't imagine until you come up with the idea. It's idea-based. You can do anything.

His opinion
If his opinion was
Thoughtfully assimilated
By the best people,
I would conclude
That he might be right.
And if the best people
Considered his idea
To be essential,
I would accept that
He might be the best.
But I would never convey it
With any absolute conviction
Because this might be dependent
On the aesthetics of perception.
