The planet, the environment, war - For Real Discussion
I have much to learn from you, my friend. I have not studied Heraclitus or Spengler but I looked up some quotes attributed to Heraclitus and like these ones:
this one is so true and reminds me of another quote on pessimism... to paraphrase it " A pessimist would never land on the moon"
this man is very wise...so true.
I wonder if you are familiar with Project Gutenberg...you can read and download very old books on a variety of subjects. Here is a link:
Fascinating how modern problems of today, were pondered in slightly different terms hundreds of years ago.
Here is a book written in 1913 by WILLIAM T. HORNADAY, Sc.D. DIRECTOR OF THE NEW YORK ZOOLOGICAL PARK; titled "WILD LIFE ITS EXTERMINATION AND PRESERVATION"
This is not a rant but rather a very interesting study presenting the usefulness of many many species of birds and animals .... it should be required reading today by many IMHO....nothing much has changed
I wouldn't doubt that at some point in the future we will long for such "tough" times as these right now when the hardest decision is to buy an apple or android.
The plight of the middle class only being able to afford a new Nissan or Toyota and not a BMW or jag.
@NoiseTrader716 That could be closer than you think, with the spread of Ebola to North America.
It is hard to understand the actions of the "Bright Light" that allowed a nurse, who treated the man who died of Ebola in Texas, who confessed to a mild fever, to travel and attend a wedding in Cleveland (I think that was the city).
I wonder how many relatives at that wedding kissed her? Hopefully the whole wedding party is under quarantine.
