“The soul contains few secrets and longings which cannot be sensibly discussed, analyzed, and polled. Solitude, the very condition which sustained the individual against and beyond his society, has become technically impossible. Logical and linguistic analysis demonstrate that the old metaphysical problems are illusory problems; the quest for the "meaning" of things can be reformulated as the quest for the meaning of words, and the established universe of discourse and behavior can provide perfectly adequate criteria for the answer.” SoulProblemUniverseIndividualAnswersSecretImpossibleConditionsSolitudeBehaviorLongingAnalysisLogicalQuestsDiscourseMetaphysicalAdequateCriteriaIllusoryMeanings Of Words Book:One-Dimensional Man: Studies in the Ideology of Advanced Industrial Society Source: One-Dimensional Man: Studies in the Ideology of Advanced Industrial Society
“It's much harder to say "I'm going to kill three of the biggest characters in your universe in a gruesome bloodbath." There can be a lot of differing opinions in a mainstream comic book, you know? "Rogue would never do this!" But I can say, "No, Rogue suffered the death of Charles Xavier and it broke her down and she stumbled into a dark place and she started fixating on the Scarlet Witch as the cause of it all" which, there is a logical chain of events that lead to the Scarlet Witch. And in the confusion, she thought Wanda was up to doing it again and she did what she thought was best.” KnowsI CanBookCharacterUniverseThreeCausesDarkOpinionEventsHarderDown AndConfusionChainsComicBrokeLogicalWitchMainstreamComic BookRoguesScarletDark PlacesChain Of Events Author:Rick Remender
“The thesis that the universe has an originating divine cause is logically inconsistent with all extant definitions of causality and with a logical requirement upon these and all possible valid definitions or theories of causality.” ReligionUniverseCausesDivineTheoryDefinitionsLogicalRequirementsInconsistentThesisCausality Author:Quentin Smith
“I think we have a free will, and at the same moment we don't. We have to live with that. It doesn't make sense intellectually, but that's because our intellect is always trying to come up with a logical, rational explanation for things. To do that, it puts labels on things. But once you label something, you've got twoness. You've got the label, and you've got what you're labeling. And there is only oneness in the universe, even though we artificially believe in twoness.” ThinkingTryingBelieveMomentsUniverseCome UpIntellectRationalOnenessLabelsMake SenseExplanationThings To DoLogicalFree WillAlways TryingLabeling Author:Wayne Dyer
