Title: Wisdom for the modern ancap
Post by: Sjalq on January 19, 2011, 05:54:09 AM
"Men were so stupid; they didn't understand the reality of life at all. Love was what mattered. Love of one for one. The touching of hands, the touching of hearts. The warmth of belonging, the joy of sharing. There would always be tyrants. Man seemed incapable of existing without them. For without tyrants there would be no heroes. And man could not live without heroes."

~Renya, pg. 195

Without dark there could be no light. Without stupid men there would be no smart women. It's called duality. We create the world of opposites in our mind. Absent that, is pure love.

Why do you address this at Anarcho-Capitalists?

I like this one :)

I'm not sure you meant exactly that, though.

lol. I thought the op's quote was from a woman and meant to point out "her" hypocrisy in criticizing dualistic notions.

The quality of your life is inversely proportional to the number of keys in your pocket.

That explains a lot :)

Nudists >>>> Jailers, for sure. But I probably should revise my wisdom to: "The quality of your life is inversely proportional to the number of keys in your pocket, unless you're in prison".

I seriously doubt that.  Being homeless is certainly not fun.


PS:  Also, anyone who uses bitcoin owns *a lot* of keys in his wallet.

Even so, I'd rather be homeless than be a jailer.

Darn, you're right. I hereby deprecate my previous wisdom and replace it with this pearl of wisdom:

"Pearls of wisdom rarely stand up to scrutiny."
