@ColmanOfGuaire Banville in particular. Saw an interview with him in a Spanish magazine once where he claimed the Irish church was Auschwitz and the priests the guards.

@GaelicFuturist I only learned yesterday that Yeats was so impressed by the Ancient Greek coins of Sicily that as Senator he instructed Percy Metcalfe to follow their design for the new Free State currency.

@ColmanOfGuaire Socialist buddy of mine who reveres Meades once took me on a Brutalist tour of London. I felt ill. Brutalist architecture produces Brutalist people. Meades of course is one of the gilded inner circle who views it all from a vast distance.

@bonesoflasalle A glorious day for my country and county.

@nntaleb I recall once seeing a documentary on Levinas, who was banging on and on about "the Other." The interview abruptly asked him about the Palestinians. Levinas was totally blindsided, and spluttered that "only people who lived in Israel had a right to comment." I was done with him.

@MichaelPTKelly Read an interview with him in a Spanish mag once. Compared the Church to Auschwitz and priests to the SS.

@sunloupub You are doing fantastic civilisational work!

Nietzsche is the Karen of philosophy. The whining, the bitching, the moaning, the complaining, the hysterics. Demanding to speak to the manager while believing that there is no manager. Damning the loud and vulgar fellow customers while really longing to be equally animalistic.

@DalrympleWill Lots of Italians hate it. Messes with the story, too much sex, and infused with horrible cynicism.

@MaryKenny4 Try going a bit south on your map and have a look at Gaza.

@PangurBn10 "No foreign cuisine" - it's all about stuffing their fat faces for these types while thinking they're 'edgy'.

@ColmanOfGuaire Met her at a social event once in London. She told a Famine joke to get a cheap laugh from her rich English friends.

@turbarius His early novels 'Pigeon Irish', 'Glory' and 'Try the Sky' are genuine attempts to forge an alternative Republican anti-Treaty cultural vision. Shameful they're out of print.

@VraieSterzinger I can honestly say that the worst human beings I ever knew were in the English department in my hometown university. Scheming, ambitious, vicious, arrogant, self-loving. Never met anyone like them since.

@VraieSterzinger Isolation is the price of truth, or even the search for truth.
