Mark Fisher
“[...] it is impossible to accept that there are no overall controllers, that the closest thing we have to ruling powers now are nebulous, unaccountable interests excercising corporate irresponsibility.”
Mark Fisher, Capitalist Realism: Is There No Alternative?

“The question of who is having successful and satisfying intercourse with the deepest levels of reality, and who is just imagining it, still remains to be answered.”
Peter Woit, Not Even Wrong: The Failure of String Theory and the Search for Unity in Physical Law

Phillips Brooks
“Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your tasks. Then the doing of your work shall be no miracle, but you shall be the miracle. ”
Phillips Brooks

Marshall McLuhan
“To see a man slip on a banana skin is to see a rationally structured system suddenly translated into a whirling machine.”
Marshall McLuhan, Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man

Marshall McLuhan
“Man becomes, as it were, the sex organs of the machine world, as the bee of the plant world, enabling it to fecundate and to evolve ever new forms. The machine world reciprocates man’s love by expediting his wishes and desires, namely, in providing him with wealth”
Marshall McLuhan, Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man
