Book cover for Falcon

Our brains cannot see more than 20 events per second – falcons see 70–80; they are unable to recognize the 25-pictures-per-second moving image on a television screen. Seeing things closer together in time than we do allows them to stretch out a foot at full speed to grab a bird or a dragonfly from the air.

Jerry Stahl
“If Sartre was right that hell is other people—then other people in a tour bus traveling through Poland may be whatever they call the place below hell … or at least one corner of it.”
Jerry Stahl, Nein, Nein, Nein!: One Man’s Tale of Depression, Psychic Torment, and a Bus Tour of the Holocaust

Harshita Gottipati
“The true dwellers help you embrace
the darkness in yourself and wield it at will.
It is never belittling but empowering.”
Harshita Gottipati, Born A Free Spirit

“The greatest happiness possible to a man ... is to become civilized, to know the pageant of the past, to love the beautiful, to have just ideas of values and proportions, and then retaining his animal spirits and appetites, to live in a wilderness, - J. Frank Dobie”
Roderick Nash, Wilderness and the American Mind - REVISED EDITION

“Here is the essence of Cather's far-reaching humanism: a reverence for the barbarous existence by beauty making civilization. Wherever humanity has made the hardest of all starts and lifted itself out of brutality, is a sacred spot. (refers to places like Mesa Cliff Dwellings in Colorado)”
Benjamin Taylor, Chasing Bright Medusas: A Life of Willa Cather

Jerry Stahl
“Comparing the Gaza Strip and the Warsaw Ghetto ... Which opens up the whole Mein Kampf-ed, blood-libel, anti-Semitic, Islamophobic, rampantly racist full-on-fascism-to-keep-us-safe-from-vermin situation. MAGA Unleashed. By the time you read this, the camps may already be opening.”
Jerry Stahl, Nein, Nein, Nein!: One Man’s Tale of Depression, Psychic Torment, and a Bus Tour of the Holocaust
