Often Is Ideas Action

More From Karl Kraus

One of the questions i often get asked is, "were you surprised that trump won?" i always answer the same way: "i was surprised, i am surprised and i will never stop being surprised."
Relationship is action, is it not? action has meaning only in relationship; without understanding relationship, action on any level will only breed conflict. the understanding of relationship is infinitely more important than the search for any plan of action. the ideology, the pattern for action, prevents action. action based on ideology hinders the understanding of relationship between man and man.
Understanding Levels Action
I would say about individuals, a individual dies when they cease to to be surprised. i am surprised every morning when i see the sunshine again. when i see an act of evil i don't accomodate, i don't accomodate myself to the violence that goes on everywhere. i am still so surprised! that is why i am against it. we must learn to be surprised.

[action's] a western thing. we think of the hero going into battle, rebelling against a government or an oppressor, but [in kundun] action is nonaction or what appears to be nonaction. that's a hard concept for western audiences. . . . we wanted to show a kind of moral action, a spiritual action, an emotional action. some people will pick up on it; some won't.

Wisdom, happiness, and courage are not waiting somewhere out beyond sight at the end of a straight line; they're part of a continuous cycle that begins right here. they're not only the ending, but the beginning as well.

What ugly sights of death within mine eyes!
Death Eye Sight
Proverbs often contradict one another, as any reader soon discovers. the sagacity that advises us to look before we leap promptly warns us that if we hesitate we are lost; that absence makes the heart grow fonder, but out of sight, out of mind.
Philosophical Heart Sight
Silence is an ocean. speech is a river. when the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the language-river. listen to the ocean, and bring your talky business to an end. traditional words are just babbling in that presence, and babbling is a substitute for sight.
