Into this universe, and why not knowing nor whence, like water willy-nilly flowing; and out of it, as wind along the wate, i know not whither, willy-nilly blowing.
Wind Knowing Water
If you cannot see that divinity includes male and female characteristics and at the same time transcends them, you have bad consequences. rome and cardinal o'connor base the exclusion of women priests on the idea that god is the father and jesus is his son, there were only male disciples, etc. they are defending a patriarchal church with a patriarchal god. we must fight the patriarchal misunderstanding of god.

The two most far-reaching critical theories at the beginning of the latest phase of industrial society were those of marx and freud. marx showed the moving powers and the conflicts in the social-historical process. freud aimed at the critical uncovering of the inner conflicts. both worked for the liberation of man, even though marx's concept was more comprehensive and less time-bound than freud's.

As for me, you wonder why i am a socialist. i'll tell you. it is because socialism is inevitable; because the present rotten and irrational system cannot endure; because the day is past for your man on horseback. the slaves won't stand for it. they are too many, and willy-nilly they'll drag down the would-be equestrian before he gets astride. you can't get away from them, and you'll have to swallow the whole slave-morality. it's not a nice mess, i'll allow. but it's been a-brewing and swallow it you must.
Nice Past Men
There are, besides, eternal truths, such as freedom, , etc., that are common to all states of society. but communism abolishes eternal truths, it abolishes all religion, and all morality, instead of constituting them on a new basis; it therefore acts in contradiction to all past historical experience.

I am lost if i attempt to take count of chronology. when i think over the past, i am like a person whose eyes cannot properly measure distances and is liable to think things extremely remote which on examination prove to be quite near.
Distance Eye Past
I didn't remember what month that was, or what year even. i only knew the memory lived in me, a perfectly encapsulated morsel of a good past, a brushstroke of color on the gray, barren canvas that our lives had become.
Memories Past Color
