behind the seven seas

behind the seven mountains

behind the seven valleys

behind the seven rivers

behind the seven mountains

behind the seven volcanoes

lives a dragon  

and one day he get out of the cave and howled: "where do I live for fuck's sake!"

Democracy is a kind of hypnosis or illusion, a byproduct of human civilization, conjured by the Few to rule the Many, intended to make common people believe they are free, that they are not slaves, when in fact they are more enslaved than ever, for Democracy makes them think they have "rights."

 

- Takashi Miike I suppose, it's what a ~8 year old schoolboy answers when the teacher asks "What is democracy?" in the movie "Izo"

“I must not fear.

 

Fear is the mind-killer.

 

Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. 

 

I will face my fear.

 

I will permit it to pass over me and through me. 

 

And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.

 

Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.

 

Only I will remain.” 

 

― Frank Herbert, Dune

“We've arranged a global civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces.”

― Carl Sagan

 

"The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”

― Isaac Asimov

And the best, I must confess, I have saved for the last
For the ruler of this Christmas land
Is a fearsome king with a deep mighty voice
Least that's what I've come to understand

And I've also heard it told
That he's something to behold
Like a lobster, huge and red

And sets out to slay with his rain gear on
Carting bulging sacks with his big great arms
That is, so I've heard it said

And on a dark, cold night, under full moonlight
He flies into a fog, like a vulture in the sky

And they call him Sandy Claws - Jack Skellington

"Buy flowers for the beloved woman, but don't forget your own [woman]"

"Better strategic retreat than dishonorable defeat"

"Better to live hundred years as a millionaire, than one week in poverty!"

"If you want to win you must not lose"
