Middle Class People, The Bourgeoisie,

I Was Watching The Tv Broadcasts Interviewing People Stranded At Airports For Days On End, Losing Their Holidays, Their Important Business Meetings And The Long-awaited Ability To See Their Families... In Short, Suffering. No One Complained, Though! They Kept Repeating: We Are So Grateful For The Care Taken Of Our Safety, For Feeling. They Were Ready To Surrender A Good Deal Of Their Human Dignity, Individuality, Freedom Of Choice.

We Belong To Talking, Not What Talking Is About... Stop Talking - And You Are Out. Silence Equals Exclusion.

For One To Be Free There Must Be At Least Two. Freedom Signifies A Social Relation, An Asymmetry Of Social Conditions: Essentially It Implies Social Difference--it Presumes And Implies The Presence Of Social Division. Some Can Be Free Only In So Far As There Is A Form Of Dependence They Can Aspire To Escape.

Life Purpose May Be Shifted From Achieving A 'steady State' (an Equilibrium Between Desires And Plausibilities) To The Excitement Of Running After Novelties. In Other Words, Be Guided By New Desires, Not By Extant Needs.

Cornelius Castoriadis, The Great French Social Philosopher Of Greek Origin, Was Asked Once By An Exasperated Interviewer: "what Do You Want, Mr. Castoriadis - To Change Humanity?" He Answered: "no, God Forbid, I Only Want Humanity To Change Itself, As It Has Done So Many Times In The Past." I Would Be Inclined To Answer The Same Way.
