Real Work
“Ignorant of the cause of life, ignorant of the purpose of life, ignorant of what lies beyond the mystery of death, yet possessing within himself the answer to it all, man is willing to sacrifice the beautiful, the true, and the good within and without upon the blood-stained altar of worldly ambition.”
- Manly P. Hall

‘’I write as a daughter hungry for the Mother, and I understand what Monique Wittig means when she says: “the language you speak is made up of words that are killing you.” Personally, I have been so hungry for the Female Metaphor, for the Mother — for words for Her, for knowledge of Her, that I could perform terrible and radical acts to find Her. I went away from my young children for a long period of time for this — to find the Mother for myself, and for them: I did not want to give my children the world I had grown up in — the world they needed had to be integral with Matter, or there would not be a world at all.’’

“Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is the real work of childhood.”

“There are so many different kinds of stupidity, and cleverness is one of the worst.’
