And then the spirit brings hope, hope in the strictest christian sense, hope which is hoping against hope. for an immediate hope exists in every person; it may be more powerfully alive in one person than in another; but in death every hope of this kind dies and turns into hopelessness. into this night of hopelessness (it is death that we are describing) comes the life-giving spirit and brings hope, the hope of eternity. it is against hope, for there was no longer any hope for that merely natural hope; this hope is therefore a hope contrary to hope.

Perhaps, you know, new laws, new domains of potential openness are occurring as the universe ages, and complexity previously disallowed is now possible, and we are that complexity. we are nature moving out of its genetic phase - a phase under the control of chemical genes, which are physical structures, in to an epigenetic phase, a phase of culture ruled by codes, transformable culturally confined codes - mathematics, religion, philosophy, art, dance, humor.

When i work there are two distinct phases: the phase of pushing the work along, getting something to happen, where all the input comes from me, and phase two, where things start to combine in a way that wasn't expected or predicted by what i supplied. once phase two begins everything is okay, because then the work starts to dictate its own terms. it starts to get an identity which demands certain future moves. but during the first phase you often find that you come to a full stop.

The development of european integration can be divided into two phases. the first era ended with the maastricht treaty. it was a liberalization phase, with the main goal of european integration at the time being the removal of various barriers and borders in europe. the second phase is a homogenization or standardization phase, one that involves regulation from the top and growing control over our lives. this no longer has anything to do with freedom and democracy.
Europe Two Goal
Everyone likes to stereotype things or write them off as not that serious or "this is just a phase," especially when you're that young. the music was never a phase, but the wardrobe was certainly a phase, so i think that may have overshadowed the music in the beginning, for sure. i was so outrageous.
Writing Thinking Phases
People were paid lots of money to make stupid decisions, people in big banks, and when people are paid to be stupid they'll be stupid. the question was, did they know they were being stupid or were they just stupid? i think you need to take it on a case by case basis. there was some sinister activity, but i think by and by it was people being incentivised to do the wrong thing.
