Construct Quotes

“Africans my heart bleeds for you! When will you ever realize that your fight should never be against each other, but for each other? When will you ever unite and construct a future so worthy of your future generations? When will you ever stop pointing fingers at each other and start pointing each other towards the right direction? Africans my heart bleeds heavily for you! If you cannot stand together, you will be conquered forever. In the end, your real enemy will stand on the mountain top and claim victory.”

“If you engage with someone as if they are faulty, or somehow inferior, you are attempting to direct or assign them to the low-range spectrum. Of course, none is obliged to accept these implications, but certain constructs make it near impossible to reject them. In the Artificium, parents regularly do this with their children. Already the imposing of authority, usually explained as a necessary teaching of discipline and manners, is a subterfuge method of control. The key aspect here is the imposition of authority. In lieu of authority, there should be respect, and respect is always earned. However, in taking the authority route, parents insist on obedience. Thus, they help instill the parameters for obedience later on. Obedient children become obedient adults. Obedient of what? It does not matter... Whatever the authority figure says is right. In this manner, parents can almost guarantee a smooth transition towards servitude or serfdom of their children later in life. In other words, they help raise slaves ― to authority.”

“With making changes, the difficult part of trying to implement a new way, idea or thought, is getting people to believe the effect of your notion, and have them believe in themselves of adapting to something new.”

“Interest in temperament as an individual difference dimension of importance in one's behavior leads to reanalysis of both theoretical and methodological considerations relating to the construct.”

“When we speak of the platforms and constructs of the world, or the Artificium, consider the synergy of elements. The interplay. See the energy of an individual, an action, an event, an institution... and not just its presentation, which are the words. Always, invariably, look behind the mask. Always.”

“If I keep observing the uranium, which means a little more than keeping my eyes on the pot on my desk and involves something akin to surrounding it with a whole system of Geiger counters, I can freeze it in such a way that it stops emitting radiation. Although Turing first suggested the idea as a theoretical construct, it turns out that it is not just mathematical fiction. Experiments in the last decade have demonstrated the real possibility of using observation to inhibit the progress of a quantum system.”

“You will arise, so start by attempting to rise. Don't give space for failure to erect local huts in your land; agree that you are constructing a global edifice there! Think possibility and be hopeful!”

“Your life success is well designed by the mental transformation you experience. That mental transformation guides you to construct powerful decisions. You can't live life so well without mental make-ups.”

“Since many are confronted with an eerie void, lacking essential qualities in their daily repertoire and suffering from missing out on a second or third dimension in their lives, they feel disjointed and disgruntled, unconsciously struggling to find out a kind of strategy to “construct” or to "reconstruct" their living. (“Bread and Satellite”)”

“People today will have you believing life is a blank slate upon which you can write anything at all--this is poetic, even romantic. Unfortunately, it's also a lie, because life exists in, is bound by, shaped by, controlled by, and functions within a construct. Attempt to function outside that construct, or bend it to our will, or remove it completely, and you throw all of society into chaos. We're seeing that now. Like it or not, birds don't fly upside down...and neither can we.”

“...while some communities are chasing visions out, others are chasing one another away. ....while some leaders love breaking records, others love breaking constructed buildings. Good leaders deserve golden trophies while gas cylinder is o.k for the bad ones!”

“I spend my life attempting to create that which I cannot create. Therefore, that which I seek to create forever eludes me, leaving me either utterly frustrated or ever more adamant. Both lead to certain defeat. But if I am wise, this defeat will eventually lead me to the God who long ago created that which my hands cannot. And here I find rest in what I’ve dreamt of, and rest from the failed attempts to create it.”
