Elliott Chaze Quotes
Out West all the smells are sucked up out of the baked land by the sun. And it’s as if all the colors in the ground are gobbled up by their sunsets, and so is the blue of the sky. The sky is high and pale and impersonal and you get the feeling it doesn’t belong to you at all, but that it is the property of the chamber of commerce. In the South the sky is humid and low and rich and it’s yours to smell and feel. In the West you’re only an observer. In the West someone sees a flower growing on a mountain and he writes a whole damned pamphlet about it.

The more unconscious individuals, groups, or nations are, the more likely it is that egoic pathology will assume the form of physical violence.

With very unconscious people, arguments can easily lead to physical violence.

Andy Partridge
The pencil moved prophetic: together now men read In the fair book of nature, and find the hope they need. The wreath woven by the river is by the seaside worn, And one of fate's best arrows to its due mark is borne.
Margaret Fuller
Chance cannot touch me! Time cannot hush me! Fear, Hope, and Longing, at strife, Sink as I rise, on, on, upward forever, Gathering strength, gaining breath, - naught can sever Me from the Spirit of Life!
Margaret Fuller
I bequeath the republic to the republicans and not to the monarchists, and the work of social reform to the socialist and not to the middle class.

Antifa are the left-wing version of Nazis. They are very violent; they are terrible people. They cause a ruckus and property damage.
