"...science has "explained" nothing; ...the more we know the more fantastic the world becomes and the profounder the surrounding darkness...." - Aldous Huxley

Every individual is at once the beneficiary and the victim of the linguistic tradition into which he has been born.

"The legs, for example, of that chair — how miraculous their tubularity, how supernatural their polished smoothness! I spent several minutes — or was it several centuries? — not merely gazing at those bamboo legs, but actually being them — -or rather being myself in them; or, to be still more accurate (for "I" was not involved in the case, nor in a certain sense were "they") being my Not-self in the Not-self which was the chair."

My sympathies are, of course, with the Government side, especially the Anarchists; for Anarchism seems to me more likely to lead to desirable social change than highly centralized, dictatorial Communism.
