I want to say something, and it may sound harsh, not to you, but to the american people. in a sense, in my view, the business model of wall street is fraud. it's fraud. i believe that corruption is rampant, and the fact that major bank after major bank has reached multi billion dollar settlements with the united states government when we have a weak regulator system tells me that not only did we have to bail them out once, if we don't start breaking them up, we're going to have to bail them out again, and i do not want to see that happen.

I think a draft produces a better army than the one we would have with all volunteers, because i think you get average americans if you have a draft. and if it's an all-volunteer army, you get people who join up because of some problem in their own lives. they don't have anything else to do, they don't have a job, or they can't find what they want to do, so they join the army. and it doesn't produce the best army.
Jobs Army Thinking
I have transported many, thousands; and to all of them, my river has been nothing but an obstacle on their travels. they travelled to seek money and business, and for weddings, and on pilgrimages, and the river was obstructing their path, and the ferryman's job was to get them quickly across that obstacle. but for some among thousands, a few, four or five, the river has stopped being an obstacle, they have heard its voice, they have listened to it, and the river has become sacred to them, as it has become sacred to me.

Be wild; that is how to clear the river. the river does not flow in polluted, we manage that. the river does not dry up, we block it. if we want to allow it its freedom, we have to allow our ideational lives to be let loose, to stream, letting anything come, initially censoring nothing. that is creative life. it is made up of divine paradox. to create one must be willing to be stone stupid, to sit upon a throne on top of a jackass and spill rubies from one’s mouth. then the river will flow, then we can stand in the stream of it raining down.

Cooking is an art, but all art requires knowing something about the techniques and materials. using modernist techniques, you get more control, and that allows you to be more artistic, not less!
