The Inspiration of Distraction
As a writer, I usually keep myself open to ideas.

Maybe the question of free will is irrelevant? I’m a fan of Sapolsky, having read his masterpiece Behave. This book has similar threads with biological determinism but the author leans even more into it to emphatically prove a point: free will does no ...more |

| The Pulitzer Prize was well earned for this book. This is the perfect book for someone like me who only has a passing understanding of Cuba history and politics. The author will take you from Columbus to Castro and does it with an incredibly compelli ...more | |

“Hamas is regularly described as 'Iranian-backed Hamas, which is dedicated to the destruction of Israel.' One will be hard put to find something like 'democratically elected Hamas, which has long been calling for a two-state settlement in accord with the international consensus'—blocked for over 30 years by the US and Israel. All true, but not a useful contribution to the Party Line, hence dispensable.”

“What she had begun to learn was the weight of liberty. Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveler may never reach the end of it.”

“The sad truth is that most evil is done by people who never make up their minds to be good or evil.”

“In these pages, we have made propositions to meet those challenges: a sharply progressive wealth tax to curb the forms of rent extraction associated with extreme and entrenched wealth, an effective taxation of globe-straddling companies to reconcile globalization with tax justice, a national income tax to fund the modern social state and alleviate the crushing cost of health care.”
