Brian’s Quotes

“A ruffled mind makes a restless pillow.”
― Charlotte Brontë

“The alphabet (and its extension into typography) made possible the spread of the power that is knowledge, and shattered the bonds of tribal man, thus exploding him into an agglomeration of individuals. Electric writing and speed pour upon him, instantaneously and continuously, the concerns of all other men. He becomes tribal once more. The human family becomes one tribe again.”
― Marshall McLuhan, Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man

“When we forget that knowledge rises from ignorance and think of it instead as a way of overcoming ignorance, knowledge can have the ironic effect of limiting our vision.”
― James P. Carse, Breakfast at the Victory: A Galactic Memoir on Mystical Vision and the Journey into Boundlessness
