Abhinav’s Quotes

“instead to make decisions together with my emotions, understanding that they would always be with me on my journey.”

“Girard discovered that most of what we desire is mimetic (mi-met-ik) or imitative, not intrinsic. Humans learn—through imitation—to want the same things other people want, just as they learn how to speak the same language and play by the same cultural rules. Imitation plays a far more pervasive role in our society than anyone had ever openly acknowledged.”
― Luke Burgis, Wanting: The Power of Mimetic Desire in Everyday Life
