Aurelius Augustin

”Filosofen og biskopen Aurelius Augustin, som levde på 400- tallet, skrev noe veldig klokt:

”Fasthet i det sentrale, frihet i det perifere, kjærlighet i alt.”

Kanskje vi skulle prøve å møte hverandre med denne rausheten – og se på hva som faktisk er det sentrale, og hva som er det perifere – rett og slett hva som er stort og hva som er smått”. 

Thor Bjarne Bore

How To Love Yourself In 17 Ways

“To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance.”

Oscar Wilde quotes

(Irish Poet, Novelist, Dramatist and Critic, 1854-1900)

"Be Truthful To Yourself. Loving yourself requires you to be truthful about your own feelings. If you are happy, acknowledge the joy. If you are sad, acknowledge the sorrow. When you are truthful about your feelings, you do not try to lie to yourself or seek to bury your negative emotions. Instead, acknowledging what you feel provides a good guide to what your thoughts are. And as we all know, thoughts can be changed, so that healing and self growth can take place."

THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES

Ms. Ensler’s experience performing THE VAGINA MONOLOGUES inspired her to create V-Day, a global movement to stop violence against women and girls. She has devoted her life to stopping violence, envisioning a planet in which women and girls will be free to thrive, rather than merely survive.

Today, V-Day is a global activist movement that supports anti-violence organizations throughout the world, helping them to continue and expand their core work on the ground, while drawing public attention to the larger fight to stop worldwide violence (including rape, battery, incest, female genital mutilation (FGM), sex slavery) against women and girls. V-Day exists for no other reason than to stop violence against women.
