Sometimes you just have to fill up the Brita. It's alittle annoying that you have to take it out of the fridge and over to the sink. But it'll only take about 30 seconds.

The fact that you can study Shakespeare, Milton, or Chaucer in an English course without ever discussing Shakespeare, Milton, or Chaucer tells you even more. Like Homer, these men are now only excuses to discuss other things.

America is a Gnostic nation and has always been. Gnosis is fundamentally a religion of blood and heroic pessimism, the eternally reincarnating god-man in an endless ocean of blood. That is why Christianity survived here.

The exemplary of American Gnosticism is Cormac McCarthy.
