"I claim neither liberalism nor conservatism - one tends to be airheaded while the other tends to be brickheaded."

The less common attribute of the introverted lifestyle - a close societal connection, as such a connection disappears or changes in relevance as the currents of the winds change - leaves too much room for one's own cultural bias.

This is the most accurate study of the individual human being, which is in turn, rather than those affected by cultural limitations, the most universal reflection of human understanding and human behavior."
"I find it a challenge to cooperate in a society where it's considered moral to critique a rA©sumA© yet immoral to critique morality."
