Dumb Despair Littles

More From Hannah More

An individual in despair despairs over something. . . . in despairing over something, he really despair[s] over himself, and now he wants to get rid of himself. consequently, to despair over something is still not despair proper. . . . to despair over oneself, in despair to will to be rid of oneself-this is the formula for all despair.
Individuality Despair Want
Compared with the person who is conscious of his despair, the despairing individual who is ignorant of his despair is simply a negativity further away from the truth and deliverance. . . . yet ignorance is so far from breaking the despair or changing despair to nondespairing that it can in fact be the most dangerous form of despair. . . . an individual is furthest from being conscious of himself as spirit when he is ignorant of being in despair. but precisely this-not to be conscious of oneself as spirit-is despair, which is spiritlessness. . . .
Ignorance Negativity Individuality
The ever increasing intensity of despair depends upon the degree of consciousness or is proportionate to this increase: the greater the degree of consciousness, the more intensive the despair. this is everywhere apparent, most clearly in despair at its maximum and minimum. the devil's despair is the most intensive despair, for the devil is sheer spirit and hence unqualified consciousness and transparency; there is no obscurity in the devil that could serve as a mitigating excuse. therefore, his despair is the most absolute defiance. . . .
Despair Devil Degrees
It's music rage, which is like road rage, only more righteous. when you get road rage, a tiny part of you knows you're being a jerk, but when you get music rage, you're carrying out the will of god, and god wants these people dead.
People Tiny Want
It's despair at the lack of feeling, of love, of reason in the world. it's despair that anyone can even contemplate the idea of dropping a bomb or ordering that it should be dropped. it's despair that so few of us care. it's despair that there's so much brutality and callousness in the world. it's despair that perfectly normal young men can be made vicious and evil because they've won a lot of money. and then do what you've done to me.
Life Men Perfectly Normal
...i do not mean to say that this general government is charged with the duty of redressing or preventing all the wrongs in the world; but i do think that it is charged with the duty of preventing and redressing all wrongs which are wrongs to itself.
Mean Thinking Government
Similar Quotes
Facts mean little compared to attitudes. to contradict rumor or sentiment is as futile as arguing against a believer's faith in the immaculate conception. you have simply become a victim of faith, comrade assistant.
Attitude Mean Rumor
I mean, you're right about the fire and war, all that. but that rapture stuff--well, if you could see them all in heaven--serried ranks of them as far as the mind can follow and beyond, league after league of us, flaming swords, all that, well, what i'm trying to say is who has time to go round picking people out and popping them up in the air to sneer at the people dying of radiation sickness on the parched and burning earth below them? if that's your idea of a morally acceptable time, i might add.
War Mean Ideas
Good writing , like gold , combines lustrous lucidity with high density. what this means is good writing is packed with hints.
Writing Mean Gold
Any scientist can testify that a dead ocean means a dead planet .... no national law, no national precautions can save the planet. the ocean, more than any other part of our planet, ... is a classic example of the absolute need for international global action.
