“Unless the fundamental categories of economics such as 'property' were to be redefined in a radically personal way the liberal rationalist curse which had established economics as a scientific discipline cut off from human interests would proliferate. Economic models ... have failed to incorporate any meaningful index of individual benefit other than the original utilitarian one, ... the index of increasing income or an increasing flow of commodities.” WayHumansIndividualInterestCuttingEconomicDisciplineBenefitsModelsEconomicsFlowOriginalsFundamentalsPropertyMeaningfulIncomeCurseCategoriesCommodityUtilitarianEconomic Models Author:John Carroll

“On top of whatever else I'm doing, I'm usually teaching some form of composition. The benefit of this is I get to read across disciplines. Often enough that work spills over to my creative reading/thinking, and I reach a point of saturation where I can't distinguish between texts and writers and everything starts to blur and smudge together.” ThinkingI CanEnoughTogetherFormReadingCreativeTeachingDisciplineBenefitsCompositionSpillsBlurSaturation Author:Gregory Pardlo
“I have naturally formed the habit of restraining my thoughts. A thoughtless word hardly ever escaped my tongue or pen. Experience has taught me that silence is part of the spiritual discipline of a votary of truth. We find so many people impatient to talk. All this talking can hardly be said to be of any benefit to the world. It is so much waste of time. My shyness has been in reality my shield and buckler. It has allowed me to grow. It has helped me in my discernment of truth.” PeopleWorldHas BeensSaidRealitySpiritualGrowsSilenceTalkingTaughtHabitDisciplineWasteBenefitsTonguePensWasting TimeSilence IsMy ThoughtsDiscernmentShieldsImpatientShynessSpiritual DisciplinesRestraining Author:Mahatma Gandhi
