"A bit too literary/unstructured for my liking atm, which makes it hard to think about concretely. Some beautiful lines/paragraphs tho." — Jul 28, 2018 10:23AM

"McLuhan is the best type of writer. He’s a Rorschach test. When I’m in a certain mindspace, I’ll see one set of interpretations. When I’m in another mindspace, I’ll see another.
I look forward to reviewing my notes before moving forward in the book." — Jun 02, 2019 04:08AM

"When a culture is decadent, it means that the satarist is happy, whilst the rest are helpless.
Apparently Erasmus & Martin Luther’s 16th Century shared that attribute with ours." — Jun 02, 2019 04:01AM

“Patience is power.
Patience is not an absence of action;
rather it is "timing"
it waits on the right time to act,
for the right principles
and in the right way.”

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron.”
