A scientific discovery is always also the discovery of a new source of power.

The function of science is to discover truths, but the function of academia is to maintain ideology. Fortunately, an ideological system that does not allow the discovery of new truths is untenable.

The world remains,
unchanged.
History proceeds
accordingly.

Life is not finished.
It's repeating.

When all the knowledge and all the power has been automated, we will find our work in the grammar.

Theory is to philosophy as practice is to poetry. This is reflected and beheld in the grammar.

That is, I don't have a theory of philosophy and poetry, nor a philosophical or poetic practice. My work is purely grammatical.

"There is nothing more human (that is, less mineral, vegetal, animal, and even angelical) than grammar." (Jorge Luis Borges)

"I am a grammarian. We will or we will not cry together." (Getrude Stein)

Writing carries its own weight.

We cannot build a creature that knows its place.

You can't fight evil with laws.
Evil wants to be illegal.

It may be the purpose of any species to produce individuals that can experience great love or great wisdom. This would explain our suffering and could even justify it.

You don't build a civilization by killing barbarians.

A poem should remind you that you have a body;
your philosophy should help you to forget.
