“Could one choose between honesty or deception to play a role in one’s friendship life? Why not choose honesty? Perhaps if one despises intellectualism, is their alternative to be an idiot? Of course. Then, the answer should be as obvious as to live or to die. If one rejects individualism, then their only other option…

“To ‘discuss race’ would be equivalent to ‘discussing the cover of a book’ before the book is even read. For who does such things, if not to be afraid of knowing the book’s contents? It’s the same example as stalling to meet someone, for fear of either being exposed or knowing something one does not…

“What is beautiful in this world, is anything protected. Anything beautiful in this world, is everything fragile. For the same reason that a mother would protect her child, or the same reason that an organization protects an endangered speices, all things that have weaknesses are protected.” – Modern Romanticism

“Could one know a person beyond the surface? Of course. Then, why make it a priority to discuss the surface? Why make it a priority to discuss race? Why not make it a priority to discuss something deeper? Something of culture, something of history, being the things that one could identify or relate to another…

“Beauty can be simply termed as the fleshy existence of a thing, easily faulted for a crime. Yet, it takes the so penetrative eyes, to see beneath the muck, to dig out the humanity.

“The book is the design of knowledge. Yet, what would its use be, if no one could read it? What’s the use in having recordings, documents, theater, if there’s no one to view it? Why would there ever be authors, or painters, or musicians, or anything else of a creative field, if there was no…
-
“No perception can be, without the necessity to share it. Loneliness remains as a human’s greatest torment, in the realization that we have no one to speak to, about what we’ve seen. For what use is there for a library, if there is no readers? There’d be no books, if the author had no second…

“Some will argue that their way to be ‘able’ in this world, is being drowned out. Yet, in the form that ambition takes, something far greater always emerges. For to be capable simply refers to being able to lift the brick, to place it in another location. To be ambitious means to envision an entire…
