Random quote of the day:

“We too often coerce [dreams] with interpretation, drag them into too harsh a light, and harness them to the ego in order to strengthen its perspective. No wonder we forget dreams—they resist recollection because they do not wish to be pressed into the ego’s service, to be literalized and, alas, demonized.

—Patrick Harper, Daimonic Reality

Random quote of the day:

“Every civilization carries the seeds of its own destruction, and the same cycle shows in them all. The Republic is born, flourishes, decays into plutocracy, and is captured by the shoemaker whom the mercenaries and millionaires make into a king. The people invent their oppressors, and the oppressors serve the function for which they are invented.”
