When you make such positive statements, what is wrong in inquiring about
where you got the material. 

It is immaterial how one personally feels about K or anyone else. But when a
claim is made about anyone having said anything, any reasonable person
should be able to substantiate it.

It is not my needs. It is just track down your quote.

No need to be afraid of anything. Krishnamurti is just an ordinary human
being like every one of us. If someone feels that he is a "Highness" it is
their opinion and that is all to it.

No need to be afraid of anything.

Again we were talking about something factual you stated. Simple facts can
be confirmed very simply.
