A society is not defined as developed by the wealth it has but by the poverty it doesn’t have. - Jorge Majfud

There’s no better strategy against a true rumor than inventing another fake one that claims to confirm it.

That blind attitude of the Society of Knowledge is similar in all to the proud consideration that "our language is better because it’s understood." Just that with a completely tragic intensity, that could be translated like this: "our dead are true because they hurt."

The relationship that in our time unites us with Money is completely abstract. That’s where our society resembles to the one in the Middle Ages: we fear a symbolic and invisible entity, like men feared God thousands of years ago. The stock exchange changes without our participation. Between the stock and us there’s a theology of money called “economy” that, in general, is in charge of rationally explaining something that doesn’t have more reason than it’s symbolic power.
