More From Ellen Glasgow

Yes, my consuming desire is to mingle with road crews, sailors and soldiers, barroom regulars - to be a part of a scene, anonymous, listening, recording - all this is spoiled by the fact that i am a girl, a female always supposedly in danger of assault and battery. my consuming interest in men and their lives is often misconstrued as a desire to seduce them, or as an invitation to intimacy. yes, god, i want to talk to everybody as deeply as i can. i want to be able to sleep in an open field, to travel west, to walk freely at night.

But carroll's were more convoluted, and they struck me as funny in a new way: 1) babies are illogical. 2) nobody is despised who can manage a crocodile. 3) illogical persons are despised. therefore, babies cannot manage crocodiles. and: 1) no interesting poems are unpopular among people of real taste. 2) no modern poetry is free from affectation. 3) all of your poems are on the subject of soap bubbles. 4) no affected poetry is popular among people of taste. 5) only a modern poem would be on the subject of soap bubbles. therefore, all your poems are uninteresting.

Jesus said that i am the only way. so it is illogical to say all religions are true, but it is not illogical to say all religions are false. all religion could be false but they can't all be true because there are direct logical contradictions.
Jesus Way Contradiction
It's lonely at the top. ninety-nine percent of people in the world are convinced they are incapable of achieving great things, so they aim for the mediocre. the level of competition is thus fiercest for "realistic" goals, paradoxically making them the most time-consuming and energy consuming. it is easier to raise $10,000,000 than it is $1,000,000. it is easier to pick up the one perfect 10 in the bar than the five 8s.

We treat desire as a problem to be solved, address what desire is for and focus on that something and how to acquire it rather than on the nature and the sensation of desire, though often it is the desire between us and the object of desire that fills the space in between with the blue of longing.
Blue Space Focus
There is no argument so cogent not only in demonstrating, the indestructibility of the soul, but also in showing that it always preserves in its nature traces of all its preceding states with a practical remembrance which can always be aroused. since it has the consciousness of or knows in itself what each one calls his me. this renders it open to moral qualities, to chastisement and to recompense even after this life, for immortality without remembrance would be of no value.

On days where i feel the karma is in balance i'm not afraid of death. and when i feel it's weighing heavily on the negative side, then i get very scared and just think about eternal damnation and how unpleasant that would be.
