“He was naïvely surprised that there should be opposition to his work. Like most men with a vision, a plan, a program or a remedy, he fondly imagined people to be intelligent enough to accept a good thing when it was offered to them, which was conclusive evidence that he knew little about the human race.”

“Neuroscience is Poetry (Sonnet 2717)
Human brain is the most astonishing
transdimensional engineering of Mother Nature,
from outside it's just a 3 pound lump of goop,
but inside, the very fabric of spacetime
bursts into existence -
we stretch time when we suffer,
we compress time when we're joyful,
we expand space in empathy,
we collapse distance through memory -
we invent gods when we feel helpless,
we invent weapons when we're scared,
we invent poetry when we're inspired,
we invent politics when we want control -
in short, the human brain is bigger
on the inside than the outside.”

“Words and paper, however, did not seem real enough to me; something more was needed. I had to achieve a kind of representation in stone of my innermost thoughts and of the knowledge I had acquired. - Jung”

“As long as political movements exercise a fatal attraction for those who seek to drown the sense of personal failure in collective action - as if collective action somehow precluded rigorous attention to the quality of personal life - political movements will have little to say about the personal dimension of social crisis.”
