“The Law of Raspberry Jam: the wider any culture is spread, the thinner it gets.”
The Culture Consumers • Alvin Toffler“In the course of my life I have often had intimations in dreams "that I should make music." The same dream came to me sometimes in one form, and sometimes in another, but always saying the same or nearly the same words: Make and cultivate music, said the dream. And hitherto I imagined that this was only intended to exhort and encourage me in the study of philosophy, which has always been the pursuit of my life, and is the noblest and best of music.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“The aphorism, the apophthegm, in which I am the first master among Germans, are the forms of "eternity"; my ambition is to say in ten sentences what everyone else says in a book-- what everyone else does not say in a book.”
Twilight of the Idols • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche“There is no God, no universe, no human race, no earthly life, no heaven, no hell. It is all a Dream, a grotesque and foolish dream. Nothing exists but you. And You are but a Thought — a vagrant Thought, a useless Thought, a homeless Thought, wandering forlorn among the empty eternities.”
The Mysterious Stranger • Mark Twain“The anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss put it, ancient writing’s main function was to facilitate the enslavement of other human beings.”
Guns, Germs And Steel • Jared Diamond, Ph.D. (UCLA)
