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.

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.

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.

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
In 2003, at the time i made my "old europe" comment, the center of gravity in nato and europe had long since shifted to the east. with the former warsaw pact countries joining nato, the alliance has a different mix today. some people were sensitive about my comment because they thought it was a pejorative way of highlighting demographic realities. apparently they felt it pointed a white light at a weakness in europe - an aging population. europe has come some distance since world war ii in becoming europe.

Slowly, very slowly, like two unhurried compass needles, the feet turned towards the right; north, north-east, east, south-east, south, south-south-west; then paused, and after a few seconds, turned as unhurriedly back towards the left. south-south-west, south, south-east, east.

The progressive historical role of capitalism may be summed up in two brief propositions: increase in the productive forces of social labour, and the socialisation of that labour. but both these facts manifest themselves in extremely diverse processes in different branches of the national economy.
Two Historical Different
Keep moving forward, even one or two steps, in your own way. those who live out their lives to the fullest, unperturbed by the noisy clamor around them, are the true winners.
Moving Two Way
There are two men in me--one lives in the full sense of the word, the other reasons and passes judgment on the first. the first will perhaps take leave of you and the world forever in an hour now; and the second . . . the second?
