Quote by Surya Sree

“We ungodly, fearless men are valuable, in the sense that our sinful actions enable those of you who are godly- those of you who are reluctant to commit certain actions- those of you who’d rather keep your hands clean in a world where there is so much dirty, daring and detestable work to be done. We are the honorary sinners and we’ll do it for you.”

“Some people turn to religion or some other ideology or belief system to find answers to life’s mysteries. But for me, there is no substitute for the careful hypothesising, testing, and deducing of facts about the world that are the hallmark of the scientific method. The understanding we have gained through science—and physics in particular—of how the world is made up and how it works is, in my view, not just one of many equally valid ways of reaching the ‘truth’ about reality. It is the only reliable way we have.”

“I have become involved with thinking and acting without the help of an ideology; I have nothing that helps me, no idea that I serve and am known for . . . no rules that regulate the how, no belief that gives me direction, no picture of the future, no instruction that produces an overly ordered mind. I acknowledge only what is and, accordingly, regard every description and configuration of that which we don’t know as madness. Ideologues seduce and exploit uncertainty, legitimize war.”

“You lay a few cards down in a particular order, each representing a big idea, and then you get to decide how it relates to you. And the more you're in a position where you want the cards to have more meaning, the more meaning you give them. I definitely had moments where I realized things about myself using the cards, but I've had moment where I realized something about myself answering a Buzzfeed quiz. It's the same thing. The person provides the meaning.”

“The person provides the personal meaning, but society and history give them deeper meaning. That's how an idea becomes something more than an idea. How it hooks into our subconscious mind. The pamphlet in your Vampire Tarot didn't decide that the wand is a phallus. The fact that a wand looks like a big fucking cock did that. When you make the connection, you give something meaning, and when millions of people make a connection over time, that meaning deepens.”

“Okay, so you start with a symbol, then you add in ceremony. The idea the wand is the symbol of the cock, which we use to create life. Some fucking caveman shaman starts carrying around a big stick because he's smarter than the other cavemen and he's the one who can tell the what things mean. Now Harry Potter's running around with a little dick in his hand shooting out magic cum, and that image carries all the meaning of all those ten thousand years of history and connections. It's a shortcut that connects you to a larger continuum of symbolism and ritual. Different societies had different beliefs. . . . But in the end, there were still common symbols with shared meanings. Like the Sun, or water . . . or a big fucking juicy cock.”
