See All“How many things are now called the worst evil, which are only twelve feet wide and three months long! But some day greater dragons will come into the world.”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche“Government is merely a servant – merely a temporary servant; it cannot be its prerogative to determine what is right and what is wrong, and decide who is a patriot and who isn’t. Its function is to obey orders, not originate them.”
The Bible According to Mark Twain • Mark Twain“Be it well understood, I am free by compulsion, whether I wish to be or not. Freedom is not an activity pursued by an entity that, apart from and previous to such pursuit, is already possessed of a fixed being. To be free means to be lacking in constitutive identity, not to have subscribed to a determined being, to be able to be other than what one was, to be unable to install oneself once and for all in any given being. The only attribute of the fixed, stable being in the free being is this constitutive instability.”
History as a System • Jose Ortega y Gasset“Cry 'Havoc!,' and let slip the dogs of war.”
Julius Caesar • William Shakespeare“A thing is, according to the mode in which one looks at it.”
De Profundis • Oscar Wilde
