What is the difference whether or not you find this freedom, this enlightenment? You will not be there to benefit from it. What possible good can this state do you?

Additional quotes by U. G. Krishnamurti

Those who are marching into the battlefield and are ready to be killed today in the name of democracy, in the name of freedom, in the name of communism, are no different from those who threw themselves to the lions in the arenas. The Romans watched that fun with great joy. How are we different from them? Not a bit. We love it. To kill and to be killed is the foundation of our culture.
