Your reward comes after death. Nirvana. The wheel of life turns and we are elevated from animals to women, from women to men, from men to kings, from kings to gods, from gods to... perfection. And what is perfection now? Not crucifixion, not poverty endured patiently on the mountaintop. No--the perfect life is to have an annual salary of £120,000, an Aston Martin, a £1.6million-pound home, a wife, two children and at least two foreign holidays a year. Perfection is an idol built upon oppression. Perfection is the heaven that kept the masses suppressed; the promise of a future life that quells rebellion. Perfection is the self-hatred an overweight woman feels when she sees a slim model on TV; perfection is the resentment the well-paid man experiences when he beholds a miserable billionaire. Perfection kills. Perfection destroys the soul.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Claire North" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/claire-north/hqve-you-never-heard-of-priests-proclaim-that-the-meek-will-inherit/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/67f/claire-north-10078_aston-martin_hqve-you-never-heard-of-priests-proclaim_2489312.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/67f/claire-north-10078_aston-martin_hqve-you-never-heard-of-priests-proclaim_2489312.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/67f/claire-north-10078_aston-martin_hqve-you-never-heard-of-priests-proclaim_2489312.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“Hqve you never heard of priests proclaim that the meek will inherit the earth and wondered if kings of old…” — Claire North", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } } ] }, { "@type": "CollectionPage", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/aston-martin/claire-north/#webpage", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/aston-martin/claire-north/", "name": "Aston martin Quotes by Claire North", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#website" }, "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/about/aston-martin/claire-north/#itemlist" }, "primaryImageOfPage": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/67f/claire-north-10078_aston-martin_hqve-you-never-heard-of-priests-proclaim_2489312.jpg" }, "description": "1 Aston martin quotes by Claire North.
