## Quotes

* The best way to help the poor is to respect them, to stand before them as an equal, without any masks, privilege, without any authority other than love and respect. And love will help you persevere in spite of the disappointments and the failures and the lack of honesty that we have to deal with almost every day. I can say that there is no magic formula to help the poor. In each country, culture and civilization, there will always be different gestures, different approaches.

## Quotes

* Hemos llegado a un punto absolutamente crítico..[...]...Todo el Sumario está construido sobre la base de que lo que estalló en los trenes era Goma 2 ECO...[...]...estamos ante la hora de la verdad, es decir yo espero que hoy mismo, sin esperar a que haya mayores exigencias, el Ministerio del Interior ponga a disposición del Juez del Olmo y del Partido Popular los informes elaborados por los TEDAX sobre el terreno respecto a los restos encontrados en los focos de la explosión. Y si en esos informes pone como debe poner, a la vista de lo que dijo el Comisario jefe de los TEDAX en la Comisión de investigación, y de lo que dijo también entonces el entonces Ministro del Interior, si pone que ahí había Nitroglicerina, pues se pongan como se pongan los gobernantes, se pongan como se pongan algunos colegas especialistas en meterse debajo de la cama no vaya a ser que se enteren de algo, se pongan como se pongan los más escépticos entre los españoles el Sumario del 11-M se ha venido abajo. Si ahí pone Nitroglicerina, el Sumario del 11-M se ha venido abajo. Y si no pone Nitroglicerina el que se tiene que ir abajo en diez minutos es el Comisario Sánchez Manzano, y explicar por qué mintió o, y sería también entonces necesario abrir una investigación sobre cómo ha podido manipularse esos informes, porque desde luego el que no mintió fue Ángel Acebes.

** Translation: 'We reached an absolutely critical point...[...]...All the "Sumario" [i.e., the official version]is built upon the foundation of Goma 2 ECO exploding in the trains...[...]...this is the moment of truth, i.e., I expect that today, without further demands the Ministerio del Interior will give to Judge del Olmo and to the Popular Party the reports made by the E.O.D. team on the ground about the remains found in the explosions sites. And, if in those reports you can read what you should can read, after hearing what the E.O.D. team chief said in the Investigation Hearings, and after hearing what the then Ministro del Interior said, if you can read there "Nitroglycerin", whatever may think some colleagues especialized in see nothing, whatever may think the most skeptic spaniards, the whole Madrid 2004 bombings juciciary Indictment goes down. If you can read there "Nitroglycerine" the Madrid 2004 bombings Indictment goes down. And if "Nitroglycerine" is not written there, commisar Sánchez Manzano is who has to go down in ten minutes, and explain why he lied, or, then it would be also necessary to open a new line of research about how those reports could be manipulated, because the one that certainly did not lye was Ángel Acebes”.

## Quotes about Pedro Pietri

* During this period, Latino artists did not shy away from taking on issues of racial and economic inequality many artists displayed a newly politicized style of expression. The music, murals, literature, and theater of the movement period most often explored racial identity, cultural pride, and social inequality. Pedro Pietri's oft-cited poem "Puerto Rican Obituary" is representative of this developing aesthetic… Poetry such as "Puerto Rican Obituary" highlights another significant aspect of movement thought: the shift from cultural shame to ethnic pride. Unlike earlier critiques of prejudice and discrimination, movement rhetoric and writings often focused on the emotional and psychic damage of racism, exploring the need to overcome internalized shame and self-hate.
** Cristina Beltrán, The trouble with unity : Latino politics and the creation of identity (2010)
* Little attention has been paid to the fact that the most significant Chicano and Puerto Rican organizations turned to poetry to mark their entry into the public realm...A great deal of "classic" movement poetry has a strong civic impulse-it seeks to be both educative and socializing. Poets such as Gonzales, Alurista, and Pedro Pietri saw their poetry as an organizing tool that served an "agitprop function."
** Cristina Beltrán, The trouble with unity : Latino politics and the creation of identity (2010)
* When I started writing, there were only two women writers that I knew: Lorraine Sutton and Margie Simmons. There were very few Latinas writing in English... So when I started, I was mainly surrounded by men-Pedro Pietri, Jesus Papoleto Melendez, Lucky Cienfuegos, Miguel Algarín, Miguel Piñero, Tato Laviera. Many of them had books already published. I was like a sponge, absorbing different things from these male contemporaries.

# Parrotfish

Parrotfish are a group of fish species traditionally regarded as a family (Scaridae), but now often treated as a subfamily (Scarinae) or tribe (Scarini) of the wrasses (Labridae). With roughly 95 species, this group's largest species richness is in the Indo-Pacific. They are found in coral reefs, rocky coasts, and seagrass beds, and can play a significant role in bioerosion.

## Quotes

# Particular

In metaphysical philosophy, particulars are concrete entities existing in space and time as opposed to abstractions.

## Quotes

* Philosophers do not claim that God does not know particulars; they rather claim that He does not know them the way humans do. God knows particulars as their Creator whereas humans know them as a privileged creations of God might know them.
** Attributed to Averroes in Voices of Islam: Voices of change (2007) by Vincent J. Cornell, p. 35.
* Where a man speaks upon a subject of his own accord, he naturally tells the whole of what he knows; but where he is examined on interrogatories formally administered to him, his answers are naturally confined to the particulars to which he is so interrogated; and as the examining party generally knows beforehand the scope of the witness's evidence, he has an opportunity of so shaping his questions as that they may elicit everything in his favour with which the witness is acquainted, and keep back everything of a contrary tendency.
** Sir John Bayley, 1st Baronet, Berkeley Peerage Case (1811), 4 Camp. 405; reported in James William Norton-Kyshe, Dictionary of Legal Quotations (1904), p. 106.
* Particulars are frequently fallible, but universals never. Occult philosophy lays bare Nature in her complete nakedness, and alone contemplates the wisdom of universals by the eyes of intelligence. Accustomed to partake of the rivers which flow from the Fountain of Life, it is unacquainted with grossness and with clouded waters.
** Robert Fludd, cited in: Arthur Edward Waite (1887). The Real History of the Rosicrucians Founded on Their Own Manifestoes. p. 290
** Waite commented: Like others of his school, Fludd insists on the uncertainty of a posteriori and experimental methods, to which he unhesitatingly attributes all the errors of the natural sciences..."
* συνάψιες ὅλα καὶ οὐχ ὅλα, συμφερόμενον διαφερόμενον, συνᾷδον διᾷδον
** Couples are wholes and not wholes, what agrees disagrees, the concordant is discordant. From all things one and from one all things.
** Heraclitus, Fragment 10
** Variant translation: From out of all the many particulars comes oneness, and out of oneness come all the many particulars.
# Parsi

Parsi (or Parsee) are an ethnoreligious group of the Indian subcontinent adhering to Zoroastrianism. They are descended from Persians who migrated to Medieval India during and after the Arab conquest of Iran (part of the early Muslim conquests) in order to escape persecution by Muslims and preserve their Zoroastrian identity.

## Quotes

* Parsi culture is also an alien culture, but alien in name only, for, tolerant from the first, it has got blended with Indian culture almost beyond recognition.
** Harsh Narain, Myths of Composite Culture and Equality of Religions, 1990, p.28.
* The Parsees have ever been working shoulder to shoulder with the Hindus against the English domination. They are no fanatics. From the great Dadabhai Nowroji to the renowned revolutionary lady Madam Kama the Parsees have contributed their quota of true Indian patriots, nor have they ever displayed any but goodwill towards the Hindu Nation which to them had proved a veritable saviour of their race. Culturally too they are most closely akin to us.
** V.D. Savarkar, Hindu Rashtra Darshan, p. 23, also quoted in part in Elst, Koenraad (2014). Decolonizing the Hindu mind: Ideological development of Hindu revivalism. New Delhi: Rupa. p.272
* The Parsis of India are divided into two sects, the Shehenshais and the Kadmis. They do not differ on any point of faith, as the Protestants do from the Romanists; nor does the distinction between them at all resemble that which divides the different castes of the Hindus, or the Shias and Sunnis among the Mahomedans. Their forms of worship and religious ceremony, as well as all the tenets of their religion, are the same in every respect. The cause of the division between the two sects is merely a difference as to the correct chronological date for the computation of the era of Yazdezard, the last king of the ancient Persian monarchy.
** Dosabhai Framji Karaka, History of the Parsis: Including Their Manners, Customs, Religion, and Present Position, vol. 1, p. 105.
* I am proud to belong to the religion which has sheltered and is still fostering the remnant of the grand Zoroastrian nation.

** p. 18
* The image discoveries which then ’emerge’ resemble the way perceptual discoveries can follow the active exploration and manipulation of physical objects.

* Restricting the ways in which creative cognition are interpreted encourages creative exploration and discovery and further reduces the likelihood that a person will fall back on conventional lines of thought.
** p. 32; as cited in: Mark A. Runco (2014), Creativity: Theories and Themes: Research, Development, and Practice, p. 190

## Quotes about Ronald A. Finke

* Finke et al. (1992) proposed a cognitive model of creative thinking called geneplore, a name that emphasizes the importance of generative and exploratory phases of the creative process. In the generative phase, one uses processes such as retrieval, analogical transfer, or mental transformation to construct representations of ideas that may take various forms such as visual patterns, verbal combinations, or mental models. These initial ideas, referred to as preinventive forms, ideally have properties such as novelty, meaningfulness, and emergent qualities. Exploratory processes can then be used to develop the initially generated ideas for specific purposes.
