The Neuroscientist Antonio Damasio Explains How Minds Emerge From Emotions And Feelings.

Sí, el confort, ese confort...

Nothing is less popular today than to say that there is no millennium, that values collide, that there is no final solution, that one can only gain one value at the expense of another, that whatever one chooses entails the sacrifice of something else—or that it is at any rate often so. This is regarded as either false or cynical or both, but the opposite belief is what, it seems to me, has cost us so much frightful suffering and blood in the past.

The meaning of life

I was born very far from where I’m supposed to be so I’m on my way home.

Arte por encima de las paredes grises

Orticanoodles is the pseudonym of two italian artists from Milan (IT). Wally and Alita in their laboratory, situated in the Ortica district in Milan, work with stencil technique to create drawings, handmade posters and paste up. In their graffiti the faces of “celebrities” are stripped to the bone in a Pop vision, that appear in the streets of all Europe (London, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona) and fill the greys spaces of the cities. Art above all, especially on the walls!

The Kantian is not permitted by her own version of morality to do much mocking back, but other Humeans may generously step in to do the job of retorsio iocosa for them. For the true Humean must somehow learn to mock gently.

Annette Baier (1993)

Don’t trust the preacher, don’t trust the newspaper, don’t trust the radio set, don’t trust the billboards, don’t trust the pretty label on the liquor bottle where it says eight years old; it’s all big black lies. When I hear the whistle, I don’t even believe the train’s coming. I got a radical nature, and I can’t help it.

Joseph Mitchell, Up in the Old Hotel
