"This book is HEAVY in abstraction. It’s so easy to get lost. It’s kinda cool sometimes cause you get the see the clever way he goes about filling the empty gaps left in Hume’s Treatise using logic. It really gives you such a strong appreciation for Reason. Hope I can get through this lmao. It’s so difficult, man." Nov 07, 2023 10:02AM

"My god this stuff is impossible to read. I took a break to read some other stuff because this was getting to dense and now that I’m back it’s gotten infinitely harder. I completely forgot what all those signifiers mean. I never knew Marx would be so scientific when I started reading this stuff three years ago." Jul 19, 2023 12:26PM

Michel Foucault
“The 'Enlightenment', which discovered the liberties, also invented the disciplines.”
Michel Foucault, Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison

Cormac McCarthy
“Whatever in creation exists without my knowledge exists without my consent.”
Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian, or, the Evening Redness in the West

Cormac McCarthy
“A legion of horribles, hundreds in number, half naked or clad in costumes attic or biblical or wardrobed out of a fevered dream with the skins of animals and silk finery and pieces of uniform still tracked with the blood of prior owners, coats of slain dragoons, frogged and braided cavalry jackets, one in a stovepipe hat and one with an umbrella and one in white stockings and a bloodstained wedding veil and some in headgear or cranefeathers or rawhide helmets that bore the horns of bull or buffalo and one in a pigeontailed coat worn backwards and otherwise naked and one in the armor of a Spanish conquistador, the breastplate and pauldrons deeply dented with old blows of mace or sabre done in another country by men whose very bones were dust and many with their braids spliced up with the hair of other beasts until they trailed upon the ground and their horses' ears and tails worked with bits of brightly colored cloth and one whose horse's whole head was painted crimson red and all the horsemen's faces gaudy and grotesque with daubings like a company of mounted clowns, death hilarious, all howling in a barbarous tongue and riding down upon them like a horde from a hell more horrible yet than the brimstone land of Christian reckoning, screeching and yammering and clothed in smoke like those vaporous beings in regions beyond right knowing where the eye wanders and the lip jerks and drools.”
Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian, or, the Evening Redness in the West

Friedrich Nietzsche
“That which is done out of love is always beyond good and evil.”
Nietzsche

James Joyce
“I was a Flower of the mountain yes when I put the rose in my hair like the Andalusian girls used or shall I wear a red yes and how he kissed me under the Moorish wall and I thought well as well him as another and then I asked him with my eyes to ask again yes and then he asked me would I yes to say yes my mountain flower and first I put my arms around him yes and drew him down to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume yes and his heart was going like mad and yes I said yes I will Yes.”
James Joyce, Ulysses
