Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds
"We find that whole communities suddenly fix their minds upon one object, and go mad in its pursuit; that millions of people become simultaneously impressed with one new delusion, and run after it, till their attention is caught by some new folly more captivating than the first.
…Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one."

I agree, Inch! lol

These quotes have definitely inspired me to think differently than most do. I came across them a couple years ago, and they hit the mark.

Re: Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds
I discussed something with OYE the other day, and he said something that rang true.

Our leaders have lost their integrity. If integrity could be restored, so many problems we are facing would be fixed.

Thinking on how powerful integrity is to the collective, it saddens me, frustrates me, that such an incredible trait is absent from the ones attempting to lead us.

Dion also said something concerning these quotes:

Exactly, We Exchange the classic lines and qualities of constructive being for the ephemeral attributes of the fad and it's inherent fall.

The ride up on the roller coaster is never as much fun as the precipitous plummet.

This culture builds heroes not to mimic them but for the ecstasy of watching them come apart.

If you create with the end in mind you will never be freed by the awareness you come to.

Even in Dostoeyevsky's Tome justifying the ends his means propelled him from the foregone conclusion and freed him from his own malaise.

Who is leading who? And where?
 Quoting: Inchworm


Watch the actions and the words are inconsequential. Monies have been created not as a vested store of transaction, unit of account and exchange but as a way to alter intent and reward the conflicted.

It has thus made self perpetuating/fulfilling logic the precursor to action/intent and cleaved the mind in two.

No true artist creates with a mind to end or remuneration but for the process itself.
 Quoting: Dionysian Fullaflattus

 Quoting: Inchworm


If you create with the end in mind you will never be freed by the awareness you come to.

Even in Dostoeyevsky's Tome justifying the ends his means propelled him from the foregone conclusion and freed him from his own malaise.
 Quoting: Dionysian Fullaflattus

Sometimes, I think that you you think too narrowly. Not everything is cut and dried. grinning
