I'd want to look into the biology, the chemistry of the human brain.” PeopleKnowsWantHumansLooksStatesJoyReligiousBrainLeaderScientistInterviewsBiologyChemistryHuman BrainMaking People HappyReligious LeadersHead Of State Author:Goldie
“In contrast to the asexual chasteness of official communist art , Nazi art is both prurient and idealizing. A utopian aesthetics (physical perfection; identity as a biological given) implies an ideal eroticism: sexuality converted into the magnetism of leaders and the joy of followers. The fascist ideal is to transform sexual energy into a "spiritual" force, for the benefit of the community.” ArtSpiritualJoyEnergyGivenForceCommunityLeaderIdentityBenefitsArt IsIdealsPerfectionSexualityOfficialsCommunistFollowersContrastNaziAestheticsFascistsUtopianMagnetism Book:A Susan Sontag reader Source: A Susan Sontag reader
“Of the six men who have done most to make America the wonder and the joy she is to all of us, not one could be the citizen of a government so constituted; for Washington and Franklin and Jefferson, certainly the three mightiest leaders in our early history, were heretics in their day, Deists, as men called them; and Garrison and Lincoln and Sumner, certainly the three mightiest in these later times, would all be disfranchised by the proposed amendment. Lincoln could not have taken the oath of office had such a clause been in the Constitution.” MenDoneGovernmentAmericaJoyThreeLeaderWonderTakenAtheismCitizensOfficeSixConstitutionPositive AtheismAmendmentsOathFranklinHereticX MenClausesDeistOath Of Office Author:John Chadwick
“In the nurturing family...parents see themselves as empowering leaders not as authoritative bosses. They see their job primarily as one of teaching their children how to be truly human in all situations. They readily acknowledge to the child their poor judgment as well as their good judgment; their hurt, anger, or disappointment as well as their joy. The behavior of these parents matches what they say.” HumansWellsChildrenJobsJoyParentHurtPoorSituationLeaderTeachingBehaviorJudgmentDisappointmentAcknowledgeEmpoweringBossNurturingGood Judgment Author:Virginia Satir
