Beautiful Summer Fall

More From Michael Lewis

The great crime which the moneyed classes and promoters of industry committed in the palmy victorian days was the condemning of the workers to ugliness, ugliness, ugliness: meanness and formless and ugly surroundings, ugly ideals, ugly religion, ugly hope, ugly love, ugly clothes, ugly furniture, ugly houses, ugly relationship between workers and employers. the human soul needs actual beauty more than bread.

Bless that which you want. if you see a person with a beautiful home, bless that person and bless that home. if you see a person with a beautiful car, bless that person and bless that car. if you see a person with a loving family, bless that person and bless that family. if you see a person with a beautiful body, bless that person and bless their body.

Facts are neutral until human beings add their own meaning to those facts. people make their decisions based on what the facts mean to them, not on the facts themselves. the meaning they add to facts depends on their current story … facts are not terribly useful to influencing others. people don’t need new facts—they need a new story.

I think that all women are witches, in the sense that a witch is a magical being. and a wizard, which is a male version of a witch, is kind of revered, and people respect wizards. but a witch, my god, we have to burn them. it's the male chauvinistic society that we're living in for the longest time, 3,000 years or whatever. and so i just wanted to point out the fact that men and women are magical beings. we are very blessed that way, so i'm just bringing that out. don't be scared of witches, because we are good witches, and you should appreciate our magical power.

I don't do marriage. i think it's incredibly naff. and i don't like vulgar displays of ostentation.

What we'd consider a positive role model, i think it's impossible to actually be a role model. you'll have your flaws or defects of character, regardless. you just speak like a positive role model, and that's just something that you're being conscious of, and you make the decision, "i want to say positive things."

I think that there is a bipartisan consensus that's incorrect that we should have the whole world be in nato. for example, if we had ukraine and georgia in nato - and this is something mccain and the other neocons have advocated for - we would be at war now because russia has invaded both of them.

I think one of the problems with the capitalist mainstream is this: no matter what you create to respond or resist it they will buy it.
