“The machinery of destruction is complete, poised on a hair trigger, waiting for the 'button' to be 'pushed' by some misguided or deranged human being or for some faulty computer chip to send out the instruction to fire. That so much should be balanced on so fine a point--that the fruit of four and a half billion years can be undone in a careless moment--is a fact against which belief rebels.” ShouldYearsHumansMomentsFactsBeliefWaitingHuman BeingsHalfFireFourHairFineComputerDestructionFruitBillionsRebelInstructionBalancedButtonsChipsMachineryTriggersCarelessUndoneMisguidedDeranged Book:The Fate of the Earth: And, The Abolition Source: The Fate of the Earth: And, The Abolition
“The poor Geordies are in the process of being rebuffed by every sentient human being whose ambition in life is more than simply to pocket six million quid for having been a failure and run for the hills. They want beautiful, flowing football and tangible success, at St James' Park. Fine. I, meanwhile, want Jessica Alba and the Nobel prize for literature. I make my prospects slightly more realistic.” WantHumansRunningBeautifulLife IsLiteratureProcessHuman BeingsPoorMillionsFootballFineSixAmbitionHillsSoccerAnalysisParksPocketsPrizeRealisticTangibleNobelProspectsNobel PrizeJessicaLife Ambition Author:Rod Liddle
“Disrespect also can take the form of idealizing you and putting you on a pedestal as a perfect woman or goddess, perhaps treating you like a piece of fine china. The man who worships you in this way is not seeing you; he is seeing his fantasy, and when you fail to live up to that image he may turn nasty. So there may not be much difference between the man who talks down to you and the one who elevates you; both are displaying a failure to respect you as a real human being and bode ill.” MenWayHumansMayRealFormTurnsDifferencesHuman BeingsPerfectFantasyPiecesFailingSeeingHe ManFineWorshipIllChinaGoddessNastyDisrespectPedestalReal HumanPerfect WomanWorship YouFine China Author:Lundy Bancroft
“If we fail to realize our full potential as human beings, we live more on an animalistic level. This is fine for dogs, cats, and chimpanzees but doesn't work quite so well for women and men. Without the capacity to freely shape our own lives, much as a sculptor might carve stone, we inevitably slip into negativity and depression.” IfsMenHumansWellsMightRealizingHuman BeingsLevelsFailingDogFineShapesMen And WomenCapacityStonesCatSlipsNegativitySculptorsFull PotentialChimpanzeesAnimalistic Author:H.
