Some weird random thoughts from 'The Unquiet Grave' - Palinurus:
"Everything is a dangerous drug except reality.... The Greeks and Romans looked on alcohol and opium as the lovely twin reconcilers to living and dying presented to Man by Dionysus and Morpheus.
"Fraternity is the State's bribe to the individual; it is the one virtue which can bring courage to members of a materialist society. All State propaganda exalts comradeship, for it is this gregarious herd-sense and herd-smell which keeps people from thinking and so reconciles them to the destruction of their private lives... .
"Subversive thought for the year: 'Every man [woman and kid] is to be respected as an absolute end in him[them]self; it is a crime against the dignity that belongs to him [her] to use him [her] as a mere means to some external purpose.' - KANT.
