“Even solidarity, the most honourable mode of
conduct of socialism, is sick. Solidarity was once intended to make the talk of brotherhood real, by lifting it out of generality, where it was an ideology, and reserving it for the particular, the Patty, as the sole representative in an antagonistic world of generality. It was manifested by groups of people who together put their lives at stake, counting their own concerns as less important in face of a tangible possibility, so that, without being possessed by an abstract idea, but also without individual hope, they were ready to sacrifice themselves for each other.”
― Adorno Theodor W., Minima Moralia: Reflections on a Damaged Life

“Different sounds and different smells may be present. No two gusts of wind feel quite the same.”
