Eben Alexander
“Love is, without a doubt, the basis of everything. Not some abstract, hard-to-fathom kind of love but the day-to-day kind that everyone knows-the kind of love we feel when we look at our spouse and our children, or even our animals. In its purest and most powerful form, this love is not jealous or selfish, but unconditional. This is the reality of realities, the incomprehensibly glorious truth of truths that lives and breathes at the core of everything that exists or will ever exist, and no remotely accurate understanding of who and what we are can be achieved by anyone who does not know it, and embody it in all of their actions.”
Eben Alexander, Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife

Slavoj Žižek
“The problem for us is not are our desires satisfied or not. The problem is how do we know what we desire.”
Slavoj Žižek

“War pictures are always fascinating for people; they were for me growing up, even though I'm not nuts about war."

"War is the ultimate conflict, and conflict is the basis of drama to begin with.”
Clint Eastwood

Stanley Kubrick
“However vast the darkness, we must supply our own light.”
Stanley Kubrick

John C. Eccles
“I maintain that the human mystery is incredibly demeaned by scientific reductionism, with its claim in promissory materialism to account eventually for all of the spiritual world in terms of patterns of neuronal activity. This belief must be classed as a superstition.... we have to recognize that we are spiritual beings with souls existing in a spiritual world as well as material beings with bodies and brains existing in a material world.”
John C. Eccles
