More From Michel Foucault

Nonviolence seeks to ‘win’ not by destroying or even by humiliating the adversary, but by convincing [the adversary] that there is a higher and more certain common good than can be attained by bombs and blood. nonviolence, ideally speaking, does not try to overcome the adversary by winning over [them], but to turn [them] from an adversary into a collaborator by winning [them] over.
Winning Blood Trying
Strategic planning is not strategic thinking. indeed, strategic planning often spoils strategic thinking, causing managers to confuse real vision with the manipulation of numbers.

This is the way of peace: overcome evil with good, falsehood with truth, and hatred with love... my simple peace message is adequate - really just the message that the way of peace is the way of love. love is the greatest power on earth. it conquers all things. one in harmony with god's law of love has more strength than an army, for one need not subdue an adversary; an adversary can be transformed.

When our embassy is attacked in benghazi by terrorists and there is no response, you get more bad behavior. when russia invades ukraine and there is no response, you get more bad behavior. when syria crosses the red line and there is no response, you get more bad behavior. when iran launches tests of ballistic missiles and there is no response, you get more bad behavior. when north korea attacks sony pictures and there is no response, you get more bad behavior. in other words, mrs. clinton, you cannot lead from behind. we must respond when we are attacked or provoked.

If desire causes suffering, it may be because we do not desire wisely, or that we are inexpert at obtaining what we desire. instead of hiding our heads in a prayer cloth and building walls against temptation, why not get better at fulfilling desire? salvation is for the feeble, that's what i think. i don't want salvation, i want life, all of life, the miserable as well as the superb.
Prayer Wall Thinking
I think comedy directors tend to feel a need to justify the bad behavior, and i just never think that. i like bad behavior, i've always liked bad behavior, i'm a fan of bad behavior, and i don't think you have to justify bad behavior.

I know i draw without taking my pen off the page. i just keep going, and that my drawings i think of them as scribbles. i don't think they mean anything to anybody except to me, and then at the end of the day, the end of the project, they wheel out these little drawings and they're damn close to what the finished building is and it's the drawing.
