Albert Camus
“lo que llamamos una razón de vivir es al mismo tiempo una excelente razón de morir.”
Albert Camus, The Myth of Sisyphus

Matt Kahn
“Despite how open, peaceful, and loving you attempt to be, people can only meet you, as deeply as they've met themselves. This is the heart of clarity.”
Matt Kahn

Slavoj Žižek
“Money is precisely an object whose status depends on how we 'think' about it: if people no longer treat this piece of metal as money, if they no longer 'believe' in it as money, it no longer is money.”
Slavoj Žižek, The Sublime Object of Ideology

Miguel de Unamuno
“And the secret of human life, the universal secret, the root secret from which all other secrets spring, is the longing for more life, the furious and insatiable desire to be everything else without ever ceasing to be ourselves, to take possession of the entire universe without letting the universe take possession of us and absorb us; it is the desire to be someone else without ceasing to be myself, and continue being myself at the same time I am someone else...”
Miguel de Unamuno

Ernest Becker
“The important conclusion for us is that the groups "use" the leader sometimes with little regard for him personally, but always with regard to fulfilling their own needs and urges.”
Ernest Becker, The Denial of Death
