General-Oberst Kurt von Hammerstein-Equord, 1933

I divide my officers into four classes; the clever, the lazy, the industrious, and the stupid. Most often two of these qualities come together. The officers who are clever and industrious are fitted for the highest staff appointments. Those who are stupid and lazy make up around 90% of every army in the world, and they can be used for routine work. The man who is clever and lazy however is for the very highest command; he has the temperament and nerves to deal with all situations. But whoever is stupid and industrious is a menace and must be removed immediately!

Marie Laforêt Marie Colère/Marie Douceur



Maria Ljuva så lyder ditt öknamn på mig
Du tror så klart känna mig bättre än nån
Marie Vrede finns till också var mycket försiktig
Jag har sagt dig hundra tusen gånger i alla toner

Maria Ljuva har mycket mycket tålamod
Ja men en dag måste du se komma in i dansen
Marie Vrede med blixtar i ögonen
Jag vet vem av oss två har minst mod

Maria Ljuva är med dig alltför den snälla
Forsätter du att titta på de andra flickorna
Marie Vrede kommer inte alls att vara med längre
Och kommer att springa på dig med alla klorna ute

Maria Ljuva tycker om att sjunga ballader
Men lita inte alltför mýcket ett gott råd ta dig i akt
Marie Vrede dyrkar dunder och röstsplitter
Så gör ditt val mellan de andra och jag

Maria Ljuva så lyder ditt öknamn på mig
Du tror så klart känna mig bättre än nån
Marie Vrede står nu här framför dig
Maria Ljuva är blott ett minne kvar...

Where's my fucking space ship?

It's 2010. That's the sequel of 2001. People should be like, sending me postcards from the moons of pluto or something. Instead I got this phone; true it's nifty that it's got more computing power than the whole Soviet Bloc in 1969. But it's still just a phone. Without a chord. What a piece of junk. So once again, where's my fucking millennium falcon, motherfucker?

On freedom

"You shall be free indeed when your days are not without a care nor your nights without a want and a grief, but rather when these things girdle your life and yet you rise above them naked and unbound." - Khalil Gibran

Andrew Weil, M.D

I have argued that every human being is born with an innate drive to experience altered states of consciousness periodically -- in particular to learn how to get away from ordinary ego-centered consciousness. I have also explained my intuition that this drive is a most important factor in our evolution, both as individuals and as a species. Nonordinary experiences are vital to us because they are expressions of our unconscious minds, and the integration of conscious and unconscious experience is the key to life, health, and spiritual development, and fullest use of our nervous systems.

Roads To Nowhere: Where are my stars?

My stars are gone!
Même Luna n'est qu'un mince croissant éblouissant
Lying in the middle of a triangular champ
Smoking a fag beneath Orion
After runing on the rail tracks
In a granite canyon
Past one, past two, past three stations
Spöktåget kan ta mig nu
I turn my back on the transmission towers
Månskuggor kämpar emot väghalkan
Ledsagar mina steg på grusstigen

The Great Polar Bear is hiding beyond the trees
Gods, what have I done?
Where have you been?
But I carry on, the rip is grinding down the view
Will Wild, White Horses take me away?
Try to dig yourself out of an icy marsh
With, for help, only your own shadow to follow.

Wotrìc

Om man betraktade Wotrìc noga såg man hans anletsdrag hade rena skönhet som en grakisk statys, fast enligt de germanska barbarernas Ìdeal.

Detta förstärktes ytterligare av hudens vithet, densamma som blåådrad marmor.

Dock först, såg man de utflisade spåren i denna mask. Ärren från de dödligas järn, rynkor från de oslaliga andarna. Två gånger tio år till hans ålder dem la.

Och liksom i en mask gnistrade hans ögonblick blåa som en bleck vintermorgon, ur askgrå ögonhållor.

Denna blick, som bränhet glöd i en nästan utsläckt eld.

Chuang Tzu

"The purpose of a fish trap is to catch fish, and when the fish are caught, the trap is forgotten. The purpose of a rabbit snare is to catch rabbits. When the rabbits are caught, the snare is forgotten. The purpose of words is to convey ideas. When the ideas are grasped, the words are forgotten. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words? He is the one I would like to talk to."

Mind of State

How many of the ways (disciplines, exercises, practices) recommended as helpful, or even necessary, for the attainment of Satori are not in fact consequences of that state erroneously suggested as means?

Roads To Nowhere: Night Path

Yes I'm taking to the roads,
To the moon and to the woods,
To the snow and to the stars,
Into the dark white of that black light,
And all the white wolves and black panthers o'the whole world
Can howl at me all night long for all they're worth

Roads to Nowhere: Thrush Nest

Two thrushes fly
To their ditchside nest
One flees, the other frozes,
Fledgelings still as statues.
Only the worms in its beak
Are slithering, squirming and writhing.

Roads to Nowhere: Eleven Deers

Eleven deers
Grazing in a glade
I loom leeward
But my stalkins's too fast
And my steps too loud
No wild wolf patience here
For I hear the call of the road
