Country Gratitude Son

More From Saddam Hussein

A prayerful life is the key to possessing gratitude. we often take for granted the people who most deserve our gratitude. let us not wait until it is too late for us to express our gratitude. feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it. if i gratitude be numbered among the serious sins, then gratitude takes its place among the noblest of virtues. to express gratitude is gracious and honorable, to enact gratitude is generous and noble, but to live with gratitude ever in our hearts is to touch heaven.

An ancient buddha said, “mountains are mountains; waters are waters.” these words do not mean mountains are mountains; they mean mountains are mountains.

Before practicing meditation, we see that mountains are mountains. when we start to practice, we see that mountains are no longer mountains. after practicing a while, we see that mountains are again mountains. now the mountains are very free. our mind is still with the mountains, but it is no longer bound to anything.

The famous zen parable about the master for whom, before his studies, mountains were only mountains, but during his studies mountains were no longer mountains, and afterward mountains were again mountains could be interpreted as an alleory about [the perpetual paradox that when one is closest to a destination one is also the farthest).

The secret of the mountain is that the mountains simply exist, as i do myself: the mountains exist simply, which i do not. the mountains have no "meaning," they are meaning; the mountains are. the sun is round. i ring with life, and the mountains ring, and when i can hear it, there is a ringing that we share. i understand all this, not in my mind but in my heart, knowing how meaningless it is to try to capture what cannot be expressed, knowing that mere words will remain when i read it all again, another day.

Landowners and influential men of all kinds, especially members of political councils, ought to set an example to the people. the young members of rich families should offer themselves for military service. if not one of two sons, at least one of three sons should be ready to do so.

Sexual assault has no place in the military. it is a violation of everything that the us military stands for.

When the real history of mankind is fully disclosed, will it feature the echoes of gunfire or the shaping sound of lullabies? the great armistices made by military men or the peacemaking of women in homes and in neighborhoods? will what happened in cradles and kitchens prove to be more controlling than what happened in congresses? when the surf of the centuries has made the great pyramids so much sand, the everlasting family will still be standing, because it is a celestial institution, formed outside telestial time.

When the military man approaches, the world locks up its spoons and packs off its womankind.

In the military we are always looking for ways to leverage up our forces. having greater communications and command and control over your forces than your enemy has over his is a force multiplier. having greater logistics capability than the enemy is a force multiplier. having better-trained commanders is a force multiplier. perpetual optimism, believing in yourself, believing in your purpose, believing you will prevail, and demonstrating passion and confidence is a force multiplier. if you believe and have prepared your followers, the followers will believe.
