“Pessimists are just as illogical as optimists; insomuch as both envisage the aims of mankind as unified, and as having a direct relationship (either of frustration or of fulfilment) to the inevitable flow of terrestrial motivation and events. That is - both schools retain in a vestigial way the primitive concept of a conscious teleology - of a cosmos which gives a damn one way or the other about the especial wants and ultimate welfare of mosquitos, rats, lice, dogs, men, horses, pterodactyls, trees, fungi, dodos, or other forms of biological energy.” MenWayWantGivingSchoolFormMotivationEnergyTreeMankindDogEventsConsciousConceptsFlowDirectUltimateHorseAimOne WayInevitableWelfareDamnFrustrationCosmosPrimitiveRatsOptimistPessimistUnifiedFulfilmentIllogicalFungiLice Author:H.

“Economics, over the years, has become more and more abstract and divorced from events in the real world. Economists, by and large, do not study the workings of the actual economic system. They theorize about it. As Ely Devons, an English economist, once said in a meeting: 'If economists wanted to study the horse, they wouldn't go around and look at horses. They'd sit in their studies and say to themselves, `What would I do if I were a horse?'

“You have lost your reason and taken the wrong path. You have taken lies for truth, and hideousness for beauty.

“I believed that by fixing it down in words, I could force sense from all that had happened, that effect would follow cause, and the reason for each event come clear to me. But then I returned one day, to find all my careful scribing gone to fragments of vellum lying in a trampled yard with wet snow blowing over them. I sat my horse, looking down at them, and knew that, as it always would, the past had broken free of my effort to define and understand it. History is no more fixed and dead than the future. The past is no further away than the last breath you took.” ReasonLastsPastLyingForceCausesEffortGoneClearHappenedEffectsEventsBrokenOne DayHorseBreathsCarefulSnowFixedSatWetYardsFragmentsFixingLooking Down Author:Robin Hobb
