Book cover for The Three-Body Problem (Remembrance of Earth’s Past, #1)
for this mass struggle session, the victims were the reactionary bourgeois academic authorities. These were the enemies of every faction, and they had no choice but to endure cruel attacks from every side.

Orson Scott Card
“Four basic factors are present in every story, with varying degrees of emphasis: milieu, idea, character, and event.”
Orson Scott Card, Characters & Viewpoint

Bessel van der Kolk
“I observed the force of communal rhythms in action when I watched Archbishop Desmond Tutu conduct public hearings for the Truth and Reconciliation Commission in South Africa in 1996. These events were framed by collective singing and dancing. Witnesses recounted the unspeakable atrocities that had been inflicted on them and their families. When they became overwhelmed, Tutu would interrupt their testimony and lead the entire audience in prayer, song, and dance until the witnesses could contain their sobbing and halt their physical collapse. This enabled participants to pendulate in and out of reliving their horror and eventually to find words to describe what had happened to them.”
Bessel van der Kolk, The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

Peter Lynch
“In stage four, once again they’re crowded around me—but this time it’s to tell me what stocks I should buy. Even the dentist has three or four tips, and in the next few days I look up his recommendations in the newspaper and they’ve all gone up. When the neighbors tell me what to buy and then I wish I had taken their advice, it’s a sure sign that the market has reached a top and is due for a tumble.”
Peter Lynch, One Up On Wall Street: How To Use What You Already Know To Make Money In

“Competition is for losers.”
Peter Thiel

Robert McKee
“Cliche is at the root of audience dissatisfaction, and like a plague spread through ignorance, it now infects all story media.”
