Long Choices Gone

More From Alan Greenspan

A chess master can keep track of more choices than the number of stars in the galaxy within an instant, but these are people that have truly learned and mastered the choices that they have and how to deal with those choices over a very, very long period of training, so essentially what they're really doing is ruling out all the irrelevant choices and only zeroing in on the most relevant, useful choices at the moment.
Stars Numbers Long
Once you accept the fact that people have 'individual choices' and they're 'free' to make those choices. free to make choices means without being influenced and i can't understand that at all. all of us are influenced in all our choices by the culture we live in, by our parents, and by the values that dominate. so, we're influenced. so there can't be free choices.
Mean Individual Choice People
So long as there are poor, - i am poor, - so long as there are prisons, - i am a prisoner, - so long as there are sick, - i am weak, - so long as there is ignorance, - i must learn the truth, - so long as there is hate, - i must love, - so long as there is hunger, - i am famished. - such is the identification our divine lord would have us make with all whom he made in love and for love.
Hate Ignorance Long
If the director wishes to print it, then you have a series of choices, maybe millions of choices within that minute-and-a-half, or 80 seconds, or 2 minutes or however long or short the take is, you have all those choices committed to celluloid. i find that absolutely thrilling.
Long Choices Wish
Long ago, there was something in me, but now that thing is gone. now that thing is gone, that thing is gone. i cannot cry. i cannot care. that thing will come back no more.
Long Ago Gone Care
"judge not, that ye be not judge"... is an abdication of moral responsibility: it is a moral blank check one gives to others in exchange for a moral blank check one expects for oneself. there is no escape from the fact that men have to make choices; so long as men have to make choices, there is no escape from moral values; so long as moral values are at stake, no moral neutrality is possible. to abstain from condemning a torturer, is to become an accesory to the torture and murder of his victims. the moral principle to adopt... is: "judge, and be prepared to be judged."

Writing is a form of therapy; sometimes i wonder how all those who do not write, compose or paint can manage to escape the madness, melancholia, the panic and fear which is inherent in a human situation.
Love Depression Fear
In order to the attaining of all useful knowledge this is most necessary, that we fear god; we are not qualified to profit by the instructions that are given us unless our minds be possessed with a holy reverence of god, and every thought within us be brought into obedience to him.... as all our knowledge must take rise from the fear of god, so it must tend to it as its perfection and centre. those know enough who know how to fear god, who are careful in every thing to please him and fearful of offending him in any thing; this is the alpha and omega of knowledge.
Christian Fear Blessing
The opposite of courage is not so much fear as it is conformity.
Fear Opposites Conformity
Sometimes they threaten you with something - something you can't stand up to, can't even think about. and then you say, don't do it to me, do it to somebody else, do it to so-and-so. and perhaps you might pretend, afterwards, that it was only a trick and that you just said it to make them stop and didn't mean it. but that isn't true. at the time when it happens you do mean it. you think there's no other way of saving yourself, and you're quite ready to save yourself that way. you want it to happen to the other person. you don't give a damn what they suffer. all you care is yourself.
