Press Reviews
That which is a possibility is a necessity.
-Oswald Spengler
The origin of numbers resembles that of the myth. It is by means of names and numbers that the human understanding obtains power over the world.
-Oswald Spengler
Ideas that draw upon the authority of nature nearly always have their origin in ideas about society.
-Andrew Ross “The Chicago Gangster Theory of Life”
Numbers are images of the perfectly desensualized understanding, of pure thought, and contain their abstract validity within themselves. Their exact application to the actuality of conscious experience is therefore a problem in itself-a problem which is always being posed anew and never solved-and the congruence of mathematical system with empirical observation is at present anything but self-evident.
-Oswald Spengler, “Decline Of The West” pg. 50.
…the inward and outward fulfillment, the finality, that awaits every living culture – is the purport of all the historic “declines”, amongst them that decline of the Classical which we know so well and fully, and another decline, entirely comparable to it in course and duration, which will occupy the first centuries of the coming millennium but is heralded already and sensible in and around us today – the decline of the west.
-Oswald Spengler, “Decline of the West” pg.74
Only cultural creatures can experience shame and guilt: This is what writer Mark Twain had in mind when he remarked that people “are the only animals that blush…or need to.”
-Society: The Basics 5th Edition author John J. Macionis
I feel myself driven towards an end that I do not know. As soon as I shall have reached it, as soon as I shall become unnecessary, an atom will suffice to shatter me. Till then, not all the forces of mankind can do anything against me.
-Napoleon Bonaparte (at the beginning of his Russian campaign)
Goethe’s warning: “Do not, I beg you, look for anything behind phenomena. They are themselves their own lesson.” -had become incomprehensible to the century of Marx and Darwin.
-Oswald Spengler The Decline of the West page 84
So must thou be. Thou canst not Self escape.
So erst the Sibyls, so the prophets told.
Nor Time nor any Power can mar the shape
Impressed, that living must itself unfold.
- Goethe “Orphische Urworte”
When the missionaries first came to Africa they had the bible and we had the land. They said, “let us pray”; we closed our eyes. When we opened them we had the bible and they had the land.
- Desmond Tutu
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on lunch.
- Anonymous
Nihilism n.1a) the denial of the existence of any basis for knowledge or truth. B) The general rejection of customary beliefs in morality, religion, etc. .2. The belief that there is no meaning or purpose in existence.
- Webster’s New World Dictionary
“Nebraska reminds me of what America was supposed to look like before it became something else. Along Rte. 20 the almost unpardonable beauty of desolation.”
- Jim Harrison - From The Dalva Notebooks: 1985-1987
from the littered rooms of twentysomething wastrels, broken pieces
of plastics and circuits. no! that does not work anymore either! but
some things do and the rest went to the trash and those who love it
and now thirtysomething fellows spread into other rooms with tidier
arrangements with more ways to make sound than ever before. continuing
to be influenced by power electronics, noise, pop
and all the other stuff free of course but if you want a souvenir
just let them know
the only thing out of place in a tolerant state is one who preaches intolerance
