Quotes from The Men Who Stare at Goats
(giving a speech to a military audience) "We are a hollow army. Viet Nam has crushed our soul. We have to dream a new America. An America that no longer has an exploitative view of natural resources, that no longer promotes consumption at all costs. To achieve this dream, we must become the first superpower to develop superpowers. We must creat warrior monks -- men and women who can fall in love with everyone, sense plant auras, pass through walls, stop saying mindless cliches and see into the future. I want you to join me in this vision, to be all that you can be." - Bill Django, The Men Who Stare at Goats
(instructing his new recruits) "I am Lt. Colonel Bill Django. If you pass this course you will be a psychic weapon, an angel of death, our enemy's worse nightmare. Until that time you are nothing! Do you understand?" - Bill Django, The Men Who Stare at Goats
(leading his men in reciting one of his mantras) "Mother Earth, you are my life support system. As a soldier I will drink your blue water, live inside your red clay and eat your green skin. Help me to balance myself as you hold and balance the Earth, the sea and the space environments. Help me to open my heart knowing the universe will feed me. I pray my boots will always kiss your face and my footsteps match your heartbeat. Carry my body through space and time. You are my connection to the universe and all that comes after. I am yours and you are mine. I salute you." - Bill Django, The Men Who Stare at Goats
