Immediate Concerns

Global and national concerns are easily eclipsed by immediate matters. Expecting otherwise is the product of idleness. Busy people do not have the time for such viewpoints. Politics are crippled by quick time constraints. Those with nothing better to do will focus their attention upward. Meanwhile, the hurried need to focus downward to avoid tripping and falling.

Subjectivity is unbreakable until it is.

Objectivity is a rock.

Progress is hitting a brick wall.

The automobile represents empowerment to those who have none and pay for the privilege.

The highway is a daily reminder of stupidity.

"I look at the world and see a rainbow of people who all suck in different ways." --Jim Goad.

"Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well armed lamb contesting the vote." --Benjamin Franklin

"Out of every 100 men, ten shouldn't even be there, Eighty are just targets, Nine are the real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, for they make the battle. Ah, but the one, One is a warrior, And he will bring the others back." -- Heraclitus

For too many, change is like an exercise bicycle. No matter how hard they work, they just don't seem to get anywhere.

Why make a virtue of something unnecessary? Why Dignify Drudgery? Why care about that which must be done to survive? Why care about the product? Why do no more than you have to? Why bury oneself? Why seek satisfaction from something inherently unsatisfying? If one is trapped, why move to a bigger trap? Why pretend one is free? Why is motion necessary? Why is stagnation seen as progress? Why bring it home? Why see a beggar's bowl as anything but? Why seek blood from a stone?

The incorrigible may not be firmly fixed, but it can be broken.

Does an error in language make one mistaken about the facts?
