Your brother is still young enough to believe that the past still exists, he said. That the injustices within it await his remedy.

There's no such thing as life without bloodshed. I think the notion that the species can be improved in some way, that everyone could live in harmony, is a really dangerous idea. Those who are afflicted with this notion are the first ones to give up their souls, their freedom. Your desire that it be that way will enslave you and make your life vacuous.
If the world has a mind then it's all worse than we thought.
I've seen the meanness of humans till I dont know why God aint put out the sun and gone away.
