Quotes

As long as karma exists, the world changes. There will always be karma to be taken care of,I have a wish for world peace and the truth. I would like to see a society that will bring happiness to all life forms. Of course, to the Nazis, I appear a rebel, but to the rebels, I appear like a normal person from Venus. .
