The storyteller is deep inside everyone of us. the story-maker is always with us. let us suppose our world is attacked by war, by the horrors that we all of us easily imagine. let us suppose floods wash through our cities, the seas rise . . . but the storyteller will be there, for it is our imaginations which shape us, keep us, create us - for good and for ill. it is our stories that will recreate us, when we are torn, hurt, even destroyed. it is the storyteller, the dream-maker, the myth-maker, that is our phoenix, that represents us at our best, and at our most creative.
Dream Hurt War
In armies, navies, cities, or families, in nature herself, nothing more relaxes good order than misery.

One way to think about what psychedelics are is as catalysts for language development. they literally force the evolution of language. you cannot evolve faster than your language because the language defines the culture of meaning. so if there's a way to accelerate the evolution of language then this is real consciousness expansion and it's a permanent thing. the great legacies of the 60's are in attitudes and language. it boils down to doing your own thing, feeling the vibe, ego-trip, blowing your mind.
Attitude Real Thinking
Forts, arsenals, garrisons, armies, navies, are means of security and defence, which were invented in half-civilized times and in feudal or despotic countries; but schoolhouses are the republican line of fortifications, and if they are dismantled and dilapidated, ignorance and vice will pour in their legions through every breach.
Country Ignorance Mean
Standing navies, as well as standing armies, serve to keep alive the spirit of war even in the meek heart of peace. in its very embers and smoulderings, they nourish that fatal fire, and half-pay officers, as the priests of mars, yet guard the temple, though no god be there.
War Heart Army
As long as there are prisons, police, armies, navies; we are not civilized. when the earth joins together and uses the earth intelligently, that will be the beginning of civilization.
Army Civilization Long

Crush War Army
In a hospital, there's not anyone who's generally trying to do you harm. you're generally given a backstory about what happened to them, but not about their life, so you get to work on saving their life. but you know whose lives you're saving overseas, in the army, to a certain degree. you know whether's it your guy or a bad guy, and it's generally not anybody in between.
