“Political ritual requires repetition, consistency, tradition, in order to be reliable. For actions to take meaning everyone has to understand what that meaning is.”
― Matthew Gabriele, Oathbreakers: The War of Brothers That Shattered an Empire and Made Medieval Europe – How Charlemagne's Dynasty Fell and Why It Matters for Understanding Political Collapse

“The problem with Lund is he thinks being quiet all the time makes people think he's stupid. . . . What he hasn't realized is stupid people aren't usually quiet. Stupid people are usually the loudest in the room.”
― Gareth Brown

“To pay attention to one thing is to resist paying attention to other things; it means constantly denying and thwarting provocations outside the sphere of one’s attention. We contrast this with distraction, in which the mind is disassembled, pointing in many different directions at once and preventing meaningful action.”
― Jenny Odell, How to Do Nothing: Resisting the Attention Economy

“And so we must remember that illness is not only a biomedical phenomenon, but also a constructed one, and how we imagine leprosy or OCD or tuberculosis matters. In a place where the formal healthcare system is not particularly effective at treating an illness, it is easy to imagine how more trusted spaces and people—like churches and faith healers—can be a better bet than doctors and hospitals.”
― John Green, Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection
