Vlastenectví je poslední útočiště chátry: kdo nemá mravní zásady, obvykle se zahalí
do praporu, a parchanti se vždy dovolávají čistoty své rasy. Národní totožnost je poslední
zbraň vyděděnců. A smysl pro ni se zakládá na nenávisti, na nenávisti k těm, kdo totožní
nejsou.

Umberto Eco, Pražský hřbitov

What is written without effort is in general read without pleasure.

Samuel Johnson, http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2012-March/065535.html

You cannot make a reliable system by *extending* an unreliable system.
[...]
You cannot get a simple system by adding simplicity to a complex system.

[... on various kinds of wealth ...] However underlying them all is "work" to both
accrue the wealth and to utilise it to transform raw materials or ideas into marketable
goods or services. As such "work" is just an abstraction of energy.

Thus I would keep my eye on the essential resources of non finite energy and finite
raw resources, and their efficient utilisation, which is the real measure of mankind's
growth not the faux notion of an "economy" based on the growth of financial wealth
at the expense of either non renewable or dificult to renew resources, expressed
through a percieved value of a black tulip.

[DE] Wir fordern etwas Abwechslung in uns'rer Umlaufbahn
endgültige Befreiung von Newton's Schwerkraftwahn
keine Gravitätlichkeiten, Fliegen fällt sonst schwer
Schluss mit Kontinentendrift, Pangea wieder her

[EN] We demand some change in our orbit
absolute liberation from Newton's gravitational mania
no gravitational bodily harm, or else flying’s a heavy task
Put an end to continental drift, bring back Pangaea

But the real reason to make the distinction is, after all, because words matter. Two different things
deserve to have two different names, and it only confuses matters to use the same word for both.

[DE] Wir fordern auch die Buchstaben zurück ins Alphabeth
Damit Unsereins im Babylon-Gestammel sich versteht

[EN] We demand letters are put back in the alphabet
so the likes of me can think amid the Babylonian babble

They have proven quite effectively
that bumblebees indeed can fly
against the field's authority

They invent each other ever anew
still they won't have a different view
of everyone or anything

Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)

Walt Whitman, http://www.daypoems.net/plainpoems/1900.html

All of my opinions are consistent, but I cannot present them all at once.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau, On The Social Contract

I grew in the sea and poverty was my wealth, then I lost the sea, then all luxury seemed grey,
poverty intolerable. Since then, I wait. I wait for the return voyage, the house by the sea, the clear
light of day. I wait, I struggle to be polite. People see me pass in elegant cultured streets, I admire
the views, I applaud like everyone else, I shake hands, it’s not really me speaking. People praise
me, I daydream a little, I’m offended, but show almost no surprise. Then I forget and smile at
whoever insults me, or I greet those I love too courteously. What’s to be done if I can only
remember a single image? Finally they urge me to say who I am. Still nothing, still nothing.

Albert Camus, http://www.philosophymagazine.com/others/MO_Heisenberg_PhysicsPhilo.html

Já vím, co potřebuji. Nijak mi nepomohou půvaby tohoto světa, ani pozemská království. [...] Blíží
se moje zrození. Nechte mne přijmout čisté světlo. Moje pozemská touha byla ukřižována, nemám
již v sobě oheň, abych miloval hmotu. Je však ve mně živá voda, která v mém nitru šeptá: „Pojď k Otci“.

Ignác z Antiochie, List Římanům, http://novydvur.cz/cz/guests.html

Fuck your cute hustle and disinformation campaign against legitimate dissent. Same old shit, working for the enemy.
