rationalism is reality’s most boring, limited and condescending layer
thinks itself the final word, barely scratches the surface

i thought rationalism was the thing that lined up with my ideas of the world the most, but always had an immediate visceral reaction to the farty smell of the smarmy fucks who are eager to give their ideology such a title

“There's a a life force that is translated through you into action.
And because there's only one of you in all of time, this expression is unique.
If you block it, it will never exist. The world will not have it.

It is your business only to keep it yours, clearly and directly — to keep the channel open.”
— Martha Graham

most people struggle to think of themselves as kind, brave, sincere, creative, artists etc — if not told so by someone else
