It's easy to love the beautiful... And almost as easy to pretend the beautiful is necessarily true.

Ahh but beauty is in the eye of the beholder .. so it's all relative my dear friend.

Ah, relativism! Spawning the likes of "Progressives against Progress" and the pomo generator!

Quote:

1. Expressions of meaninglessness

“Society is part of the absurdity of consciousness,” says Derrida. Therefore, in Virtual Light, Gibson examines dialectic precapitalist theory; in Pattern Recognition he affirms Lacanist obscurity.

The characteristic theme of the works of Gibson is the common ground between art and sexual identity. However, Cameron[1] holds that we have to choose between postcapitalist appropriation and Sontagist camp.

An abundance of theories concerning a self-sufficient whole exist. It could be said that if dialectic precapitalist theory holds, the works of Fellini are empowering.

Lyotard uses the term ‘Lacanist obscurity’ to denote the role of the writer as poet. However, the subject is interpolated into a structural materialism that includes sexuality as a reality.

"The man who tells you truth does not exist is asking you not to believe him. So don't" Roger Scruton

We're descending into the worship of idiocy.

"What a strange illusion it is that beauty is confused with goodness" Tolstoy

This is becoming never so true as now.

I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives.

My eyes are painted red
The canvas of my soul,
Is slowly breaking down, again
Today I heard the news
The stories getting old
When will we see the end
Of the days, we bleed for what we need
To forgive, forget, move on
Cause we've got

One life to live
One love to give
One chance to keep from falling
One heart to break
One soul to take us
Not forsake us,
Only one
Only one
(Only one)

The writing's on the wall
Those who came before
Left pictures frozen still, in time
You say you want it all
But whose side you fighting for
I sit and wonder why
There are nights, we sleep, while others they weep
With regret, repent, be strong
Cause we got

One life to live
One love to give
One chance to keep from falling
One heart to break
One soul to take us
Not forsake us
Only One
Only One

Just you and I
Under one sky

One life to live
One love to give
One chance to keep from falling
One heart to break
One soul to take us
Not forsake us
Only One

One life to live
One love to give
One chance to keep from falling
Only One

One heart to break
One soul to take us
Not forsake us
Only one
Only one
