“Nine, nine… There have been nine men there for a long, long time, right? So why not nine women?”
Ruth Bader Ginsburg (1933) Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States

“You have asked for and been given enough words — it is now time to live them.”
Meher Baba (1894–1969) Indian mystic
The Universal Message (1958)
Context: I have come not to teach but to awaken. Understand therefore that I lay down no precepts.
Throughout eternity I have laid down principles and precepts, but mankind has ignored them. Man’s inability to live God’s words makes the Avatar’s teaching a mockery. Instead of practicing the compassion He taught, man has waged crusades in His name. Instead of living the humility, purity and truth of his words, man has given way to hatred, greed and violence.
Because man has been deaf to the principles and precepts laid down by God in the past, in this present Avataric form I observe Silence. You have asked for and been given enough words — it is now time to live them.
Melina Marchetta (1965) Australian teen writer
