"So far, I'm really enjoying a lot of the context and history but also it's terribly sad. Oh Courtney Love, they could never make me h̶a̶t̶e̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ form a solid opinion of you. This book makes my heart ache 4 her.
It sux that this seemed to be a cash grab and exploitatively released so soon after he died. Thankfully I bought this second hand from a local store so fuck the author, long live second hand books !" — Aug 07, 2026 08:32AM

“I do not see emotions and feelings as the intangible and vaporous qualities that many presume them to be. Their subject matter is concrete, and they can be related to specific systems in body and brain, no less so than vision or speech.”

“Emotions and the feelings are not a luxury, they are a means of communicating our states of mind to others. But they are also a way of guiding our own judgments and decisions. Emotions bring the body into the loop of reason.”

“I used to admire people who could hang with anything. Now the women I admire the most are women who never pretend to be different than they are. Women like that express their anger. They admit when they're down. They don't beat themselves up over their bad moods. They allow themselves to be grumpy sometimes. They grant themselves the right to be grouchy, or to say nothing, or to decline your offer without a lengthy explanation.”
