More From George Orwell

Do you want a sign that you're asleep? here it is: you're suffering. suffering is a sign that you're out of touch with the truth. suffering is given to you that you might open your eyes to the truth, that you might understand that there's falsehood somewhere, just as physical pain is given to you so you will understand that there is disease or illness somewhere. suffering occurs when you clash with reality. when your illusions clash with reality, when your falsehoods clash with truth, then you have suffering. otherwise there is no suffering.

My position is that the rate should align with the level of economic development. because it is always about a balance, a balance of interests, and it should reflect this balance. a balance between those who sell something across the border and those who benefit from a low rate, as well as a balance between the interests of those who buy, who need the rate to be higher. a balance between national producers, for example, agricultural producers who are interested in it.

Is it fair for the bears to come down to where humans live, looking for food? is it fair for the duke's soldiers to shoot at them? is it fair for the bears to crush them with giant snowballs? often, if you point out something that isn't fair, someone will reply, "life isn't fair." what is to be done with such people?

I am no fun at all. in fact, i am anti-fun. not as in anti-violence, but as in anti-matter. i am not so much against fun - although i suppose i kind of am - as i am the opposite of fun. i suck the fun out of a room. or perhaps i'm just a different kind of fun; the kind that leaves on bereft of hope; the kind of fun that ends in tears.

It's really not a stretch. the checks and balances are the same. the drums are the executive branch. the jazz orchestra is the legislative branch. logic and reason are like jazz solos. the bass player is the judicial branch. one our greatest ever is milt hinton, and his nickname is "the judge."
Player Judging Balance
Balance is not to be sought by association with others; it must exist within one's self.
