I wanted to take a stand against what I think was not so well established then but is thoroughly well established now, which is the substitution for a real sense of a country of a hideous distortion which you can sell to the people called 'heritage'.

Justice is what is established; and thus all our established laws will necessarily be regarded as just without examination, since they are established.

Setting Sun
The Setting Sun said too many evenings,
Adored by some, loathed by some, it shines still.
It is an established beauty of the stage called the sky,
Radios mutter the Sun as it rises on the day of my bed.
Houses feel together that go towards an enemy,
Hearts and heat are the stars, this Setting Sun is ours.
It is an established beauty of the sky, full of heat,
And inside there is a core, problems so real.

HE is wisest who has the most caution,
He only wins who goes far enough.
Any thing is as good as established, when that is established that
will produce it and continue it.

Established
Fixed.
Like a cornerstone.
Or a sidewalk one has known,
And made from cement.
In one's mind.
The placement has been established.
Pointless would be the argument.
Whether or not what one witnesses,
Does in fact exist.
Fixed to become established it is.
An invention of a gadget one has to have!
Fixed!
To remember it and not to forget.
A melody.
An impression made,
By something done that never leaves.
A relationship that begins.
With an acknowledgement felt,
When a union begins to not end.
Like lessons learned in our minds,
That somehow stick.
Fixed to become established,
An event that happens...is!

But Not For ever
I may have gone but not forever
Memory may still live on for ever
That is real and established fact
You are here only to act
You can do nothing
As you are meant to do something
You may be rewarded in due course
Rest everything is in His hand of course
Leave behind good foot steps
So nothing is seen as lacuna or gap
This is called honorable living
People may fall in and start believing

The Assembly has witnessed over the last weeks how historical truth is established; once an allegation has been repeated a few times, it is no longer an allegation, it is an established fact, even if no evidence has been brought out in order to support it.

All political revolutions, not affected by foreign conquest, originate in moral revolutions. The subversion of established institutions is merely one consequence of the previous subversion of established opinions.

Democracy
If a country’s majority of people are illiterate
Democracy will bear no sweet fruit
Whereas if a country’s most of the people are educated
Democracy will bring peace, harmony and prosperity.
Therefore governments ought to provide education to all citizens
In order to obtain good results of democracy
And if necessary they should go for free education
For the poor people irrespective of sex.
On the other hand education should be up to the mark
And moral education should also be provided
So that a corruption-free society can be established.
Thus democracy is able to set up a welfare state
With a minimum timeframe.

If you want to win over others
If anybody don't want fame, but ignominy,
he can go for begging in the community!
If your name has to be established in the good sense,
Do service to the mankind and make a mark in the universe!
What comes with you in the end and what you take with you
is what good deeds you have done to the people around you!
If you want to win over others with whom you compete,
Leave the anger; and with everybody be kind and polite!

No Clue What Keeps Them Established
A chemistry felt,
Is not communicated in words.
Nor does obtaining a degree,
Automatically certifies one intelligent...
With common sense.
Comprehension develops with experience.
Ask anyone with a degree who still feels ignorant.
And those who have gone through several relationships...
Have no clue what keeps them established.
Many people are seeking ways to impress...themselves!

If Wrong Relationships Have Been Established
If one is going to market and sell a product,
It would behoove them to know something about it.
And the demographic of expected clientele.
Erecting a building and slapping on it a name,
Without having the expertise that is claimed...
Is not conducive to obtaining success.
Especially...
If wrong relationships have been established,
With those who know absolutely nothing,
About the business or its process.

The decision to use only the name Christo was made deliberately when we were young because it is difficult for one artist to get established and we wanted to put all the chances on our side.
