Should we rethink the global aging crisis?
:::
A real failure does not need an excuse. It is an end in itself.
~ Gertrude Stein
:::
Mocking the wisdom that comes with age is a fit sport only for those who expect never to attain much of it themselves.
~ Iain Banks
:::
This historical sense, which is a sense of the timeless as well as of the temporal and of the timeless and of the temporal together, is what makes a writer traditional.
~ T.S. Eliot
:::
To swerve from the expected course so often is to become inevitably fascinated by what Philip Roth once described as the “counterlife,” the alternative version of existence, where what ifs are fully rendered in the imagination.
~ Franklin Foer via The Atlantic
:::
At root, intersectionality teaches that the relative victim status of various groups is the deepest truth, and this framework must drive our interpretation of both natural and built reality. Truth, moral claims, beauty, dignity, the explanatory value of a research insight—all of these must be subjugated to a prior determination of the historical power or powerlessness of certain sociological categories.
~ Ben Sasse via The Atlantic
