Jetha Quotes By Jus Accardo

I wondered what the FML post would look like.

Seriously. F.M.L. — Jus Accardo

Jetha Quotes By D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones

We spend the whole of our lives watching ourselves. But when a man becomes meek he has finished with all that; he no longer worries about himself and what other people say. To be truly meek means we no longer protect ourselves, because we see there is nothing worth defending. So we are not on the defensive; all that is gone. — D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones

Jetha Quotes By Cacilda Jetha

When economists base their models on their fantasies of an "economic man" motivated only by self-interest, they forget community
the all-important web of meaning we spin around each other
the inescapable context within which anything truly human has taken place. — Cacilda Jetha

muddied
hems of
angels. — Alan Moore

Jetha Quotes By Cacilda Jetha

Our sense of the full range of human nature, like our diet, has been steadily reduced. No matter how nourishing it might be, anything wild gets pulled - though as we'll see, some of the weeds growing in us have roots reaching deep into our shared past. Pull them if you want, but they'll just keep coming back again and again. — Cacilda Jetha

Jetha Quotes By Cacilda Jetha

Societies in which women have lots of autonomy and authority tend to be decidedly male-friendly, relaxed, tolerant, and plenty sexy. Got that, fellas? If you're unhappy at the amount of sexual opportunity in your life, don't blame the women. Instead, make sure they have equal access to power, wealth and status. Then watch what happens. — Cacilda Jetha

Jetha Quotes By Oscar Wilde

To be entirely free, and at the same time entirely dominated by law, is the eternal paradox of human life. — Oscar Wilde

Jetha Quotes By Madonna Ciccone

I was thinking about dying the other day the death thought came while I was sitting on the toilet peeing - that's where I have my most contemplative thoughts. — Madonna Ciccone

Jetha Quotes By Plato

... A MAN WHO HAS GIVEN HIS HEART TO LEARNING AND TRUE WISDOM AND EXERCISED THAT PART OF HIMSELF IS SURELY BOUND, IF HE ATTAINS TO TRUTH, TO HAVE IMMORTAL AND DIVINE THOUGHTS, AND CANNOT FAIL TO ACHIEVE IMMORTALITY AS FULL AS IS PERMITTED TO HUMAN NATURE; AND BECAUSE HE HAS ALWAYS LOOKED AFTER THE DIVINE ELEMENT IN HIMSELF AND KEPT HIS GUARDIAN SPIRIT IN GOOD ORDER HE MUST BE HAPPY ABOVE ALL MEN — Plato

Jetha Quotes By Vikas Swarup

The writer's is an interior world, a world of the mind. — Vikas Swarup

Jetha Quotes By William T. Vollmann

Bug, meanwhile, had learned at Marshtown that might made right, and he got older and paler, his head downcast like a nodding flower that expects itself to be cut at any moment. — William T. Vollmann

Jetha Quotes By Cacilda Jetha

In The Moral Animal, Robert Wright laments, "A basic underlying dynamic between men and women is mutual exploitation. They seem, at times, designed to make each other miserable."
Don't believe it. We aren't designed to make each other miserable. This view holds evolution responsible for the mismatch between our evolved predispositions and the post-agricultural socioeconomic world we find ourselves in. The assertion that human beings are naturally monogamous is not just a lie; it's a lie most Western societies insist we keep telling each other. — Cacilda Jetha

Jetha Quotes By Cacilda Jetha

Anthropologist Donald Symons is as amazed as we are at frequent attempts to argue that monogamous gibbons could serve as viable models for human sexuality, writing, Talk of why (or whether) humans pair bond like gibbons strikes me as belonging to the same realm of discourse as talk of why the sea is boiling hot and whether pigs have wings. — Cacilda Jetha

Jetha Quotes By Sandra Kring

The tiny seed knew that in order to grow, it needed to be dropped in dirt, covered in darkness, struggle to reach the light. — Sandra Kring

Jetha Quotes By Cacilda Jetha

Remember the Tenth Commandment: "Thou shalt not covert thy neighbors house, thou shalt not covert thy neighbors wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox,nor his ass, nor any thing that [is] thy neighbor's." Clearly, the biggest loser (aside from slaves, perhaps) in the agricultural revolution was the human female, who went from occupying a central respected role in foraging societies to becoming another possession for a man to earn and defend, along with his house, slaves, and livestock. — Cacilda Jetha

Jetha Quotes By Terry Pratchett

Perhaps it would be simpler if you just did what you're told and didn't try to understand things. — Terry Pratchett

Jetha Quotes By Stanton Peele

Christopher Ryan and Cacilda Jetha have written the essential corrective to the evolutionary psychology literature ... — Stanton Peele

Jetha Quotes By Thomas Frank

When the entertainers of the Right aren't declaring their disgust with President Obama for groveling before foreign potentates, they're pretending to fear him as a left-wing thug, an exemplar of what they call 'the Chicago way.' — Thomas Frank

Jetha Quotes By Mark-Paul Gosselaar

I want to keep a mysterious side to me. I want to keep a mysterious side to me. — Mark-Paul Gosselaar

Jetha Quotes By Cacilda Jetha

The campaign to obscure the true nature of our species' sexuality leaves half our marriages collapsing under an unstoppable tide of swirling sexual frustration, libido-killing boredom, impulsive betrayal, dysfunction, confusion, and shame. Serial monogamy stretches before (and behind) many of us like an archipelago of failure: isolated islands of transitory happiness in a cold, dark sea of disappointment. — Cacilda Jetha

Jetha Quotes By Cacilda Jetha

Darwin says your mother's a whore. Simple as that. — Cacilda Jetha

Jetha Quotes By Cacilda Jetha

The conditions necessary for devastating epidemics or pandemics just didn't exist until the agricultural revolution. The claim that modern medicine and sanitation save us from infectious diseases that ravaged pre-agricultural people (something we hear often) is like arguing that seat belts and air bags protect us from car crashes that were fatal to our prehistoric ancestors. — Cacilda Jetha

Jetha Quotes By Cacilda Jetha

Rather than a plausible explanation for how we got to be the way we are, the standard narrative is exposed as contemporary moralistic bias packaged to look like science and then projected upon the distant screen of prehistory, rationalizing the present while obscuring the past. Yabba dabba doo. — Cacilda Jetha
