Practical reason: decisions, standards, character.

They can be held consciously and explicitly or subconsciously and implicitly. They can be consistent or they can be contradictory. They can further a man’s life or they can endanger it.”

Nathaniel Branden

[Kalokagathia @Empeireia]

As a reminder, since it is easy to lose oneself in what one does not truly want.

“A man’s values are the product of the thinking he has done or has failed to do. Values can be a manifestation of rationality and mental health or of irrationality and neurosis.

[Kalokagathia @Empeireia]

They can grow out of self-confidence and benevolence or out of self-doubt and fear. They can be motivated by the desire to achieve happiness or by the desire to minimize pain. They can be acquired independently and by deliberation or they can be uncritically absorbed from others.

Beowulf was the foundations for Tolkien. I love his inspiration drawn from heroism, but I disagree with his premise of defeat. According to Tolkien 'The worth of defeated valor in this world is deeply felt. Victory is for the gods. A man can but try.'
Man can achieve victory.

One piece of literature influenced The Lord of the Rings more than any other

Tolkien studied it for 25 years, convinced it had a hidden meaning

What he discovered changed the face of literature and helped him create his life’s masterpiece… 🧵

Murzyn tłumaczy swojej czarnej koleżance, dlaczego supremacja białych Europejczyków jest faktem. Potem mówi, że Afryka nigdy nie spłaci długu, jaki ma wobec białych ludzi.

Czarna koleżanka jest w szoku. Nigdy nie słyszała tylu słów prawdy.

BREAKING:

Europe’s largest annual conservative event is taking place right now in Warsaw, Poland.

Between 150 000-300 000 Poles take part in the Polish Independence Day March on November 11th every year.

This is how it looked like last year 🇵🇱

Raczej napędzani brakiem alternatyw i kompetencji by poradzić sobie bez kapitana państwo ratującego ich od śmierci głodowej.

Mało rzeczy tak mnie wkurza, jak brak szacunku do nauczycieli, którzy za śmieciowe, niegodne wręcz pieniądze, najczęściej napędzani poczuciem misji, chcą coś zmienić na tym świecie i czegoś kogoś nauczyć.
