belief is the death of intelligence. - Robert Anton Wilson

I'm very interested in Marxist theory. I disagree with it, but I keep thinking about it, because some Marxist theory does seem to work.

"Tell me, Harry, what difference would it make if it wasn't real?"

Harry thought a moment, his chinless face sour. "We wouldn't have to do what we think we have to do. But even if we don't have to do what we think we have to do, it won't make any difference if we do it Which means we should just go ahead."

Mavis sighed. "Just go ahead."

"Just go ahead," said Hagbard. "A powerful mantra."

"And if we don't go ahead," said George, "it doesn't matter either. Which means that we just do go ahead."

"Another powerful mantra," said Hagbard. "Just do go ahead."

Having a spine is overrated. If everybody squealed and ran away, there'd be no more wars.
