Rereading Ishmael. I have to read it every couple years as a reminder. “Theres nothing fundamentally wrong with people. Given a story to enact that puts them in accord with the world, they will live in accord with the world. But given a story to enact that puts them at odds with the world, as yours does, they will live at odds with the world. Given a story to enact in which they are the lords of the world, they will ACT like lords of the world. And, given a story to enact in which the world is a foe to be conquered, they will conquer it like a foe, and one day, inevitably, their foe will lie bleeding to death at their feet, as the world is now.” ― Daniel Quinn, Ishmael Thanks David Walters amazon/Ishmael-An-Adventure-Mind-Spirit/dp/0553375407
