Why thank you, Sam!

I love that you are familiar with Bernays and the Documentary. I would like to read his work too...just to get a little more into his mindset and perspective. Any recommends?

Wow! I love your explanation it .....penetrates the essence of the matter. If we can blend out that bullshit we can stop caring and be happy and content without all the plastic.

I will append a Socrates: "He is richest who is content with the least, for content is the wealth of nature."

Sort:  

Thanks!
I see your Socrates and raise you Diogenes of Sinope (as Plutarch tells it): 'When Alexander the Great addressed him with greetings, and asked if he wanted anything, Diogenes replied "Yes, stand a little out of my sunshine."'

Haha, I love that story, Sam. It is among my favorites!

I see your Diogenes and I raise you Epicurus: "Nothing is enough for the man to whom enough is too little."
