David Foster Wallace saw it coming from 1993 “Postmodern irony and cynicism’s become an end in itself, a measure of hip sophistication and literary savvy. Few artists dare to try to talk about ways of working toward redeeming what’s wrong, because they’ll look sentimental and…
I opened up my show in Chicago discussing the idea that God has died many times in human history. This might be the most profound death. It's by no means a new phenomenon. It's not much different than having your beliefs collapse around you. That can happen in your own life,…
C.S. Lewis almost died in the trench warfare of WW-I Became best friends with Tolkien Sold 100 million books On the cusp of WW-II, he gave an iconic lecture at Oxford University (1939). His question: Does beauty matter when bombs start falling? THIS is his profound answer👇🏻
Karl Popper (1902-1994) on what it means to be a rationalist ✍️ When I speak of reason or rationalism, all I mean is the conviction that we can learn through criticism of our mistakes and errors, especially through criticism by others, and eventually also through self-criticism.…
[Don Quixote and Falstaff] are the two authentic literary representations that Nietzsche longed for: true overmen, figures without a superego, humans beyond the necessity of turning aggression against the self, or most simply, defiers and deniers of the death drive.
“Look at your body in a mirror: You will realize you’re mortal; run your fingers over your ribs as though across a guitar, and you’ll see how close you’re to the grave. It’s because we’re dressed that we entertain immortality: how can we die when we wear a necktie?” —Emil Cioran
“Why did you vanish / into empty sky?” — Izumi Shikibu readalittlepoetry.com/2005/11/06/why…
It seems to me that, side by side with the decline of religious life, the neuroses grow noticeably more frequent. We are living undeniably in a period of the greatest restlessness, nervous tension, confusion, and disorientationof outlook. ~CG Jung
Magdalene: The Addict I liked Hell, I liked to go there alone relieved to lie in the wreckage, ruined, physically undone. The worst had happened. What else could hurt me then? I thought it was the worst, thought nothing worse could come. Then nothing did, and no one. Marie Howe
"We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us." ~ Charles Bukowski
Our anxieties lead us to grasp at certainties. Certainties lead to dogma; dogma leads to rigidity; rigidity leads to idolatry; idolatry always banishes the mystery and thus leads to spiritual narrowing.~James Hollis
"Evolution has shaped us with perceptions that allow us to survive. They guide adaptive behaviors. But part of that involves hiding from us the stuff we don’t need to know. And that’s pretty much all of reality, whatever reality might be." theatlantic.com/science/archiv…
Without error and sin there is no experience of grace, that is, no union of God and man. ~Carl Jung, Letters Vol. II,
Hegel on the downfall of the Emperor Napoléon Bonaparte: "Great events have transpired about us. It is a frightful spectacle to see a great genius destroy himself. There is nothing more tragic [in Greek]. The entire mass of mediocrity, with its irresistible leaden weight of…
For him who has seen the chaos, there is no more hiding, because he knows that the bottom sways and knows what this swaying means. He has seen the order and the disorder of the endless, he knows the unlawful laws. - LS, p. 110
“The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum...” —Noam Chomsky
"The world is nothing, the man is all ; in yourself is the law of all nature, and you know not yet how a globule of sap ascends ; in yourself slumbers the whole of Reason ; it is for you to know all ; it is for you to dare all." Ralph Waldo Emerson The American Scholar
“I'd decided the campus was just a place to hide. There were some campus freaks who stayed on forever. The whole college scene was soft. They never told you what to expect out there in the real world. They just crammed you with theory and never told you how hard the pavements…

The Ottoman traveler Evliya Çelebi's story about eating honey in a Circassian village is the most insane thing you'll read today
I feel weird about receiving compassion because that's what you give people you think are beneath you.
“Art transfigures life, moves it into higher, as yet unlived, possibilities. These do not hover "above" life; rather, they awaken life anew out of itself and make it vigilant. For "only through magic does life remain awake" (Stefan George, Das Neue Reich, p. 75).” — Heidegger
“The apes are too good-natured for man to have originated from them.” — Nietzsche, note from the period of TSZ (XIII, 276; 1884)
“Life is an April day, that both laughs and weeps in a breath. But whoso is wise, laughs when he can.” (Mardi, Ch. 79) #MelvilleMonday 🐳
🤯Heraclitus points out that language stabilizes a world in constant flux. You can't step in the same river twice, but the word "river," unlike its referent, doesn't change along with the current. It's as if language is constant and reality changing, vs the usual view of rhetoric
@GazNI1886 @IDF The Turkish Army intervened to stop the slaughtering of Turkish Cypriots by Greek Cypriots following the illegal Coup d’Etat by Greece and some Greek Cypriots Do not avoid part of the facts!!
Personally I find Islam, which requires only that God communicate with us via a prophet, much more plausible than Christianity, which requires he make himself human, get himself murdered, then resurrect himself, so that, bafflingly, we can then be cleansed/forgiven & go to heaven
This is quite something: Richard Dawkins, undoubtedly the world's leading atheist, the author of The God Delusion, comes out as "cultural Christian" and calls for the UK to promote Christianity as opposed to Islam, which he calls "not a decent religion". …
Reading Pynchon: “The sun came up a baleful smear in the sky, not quite shapeless, in fact able to assume the appearance of a device immediately recognizable yet unnamable, so widely familiar that the inability to name it passed from simple frustration to a felt dread,
April is the cruellest month, breeding Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing Memory and desire, stirring Dull roots with spring rain. —T. S. Eliot poets.org/poem/waste-land
@Devon_Eriksen_ So basically any number of countries the US has attacked unfairly or unprovoked can do the same thing?
