State Are Not Made, Nor Patched; They

John Masefield
State are not made, nor patched; they grow; grow slow through centuries of pain, and grow correctly in the main; but only grow by certain laws, of certain bits in certain jaws.

More From John Masefield

State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a state, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to congress. ... inspection laws, quarantine laws, health laws of every description, as well as laws for regulating the internal commerce of a state, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c., are component parts of this mass. no direct general power over these objects is granted to congress, and, consequently, they remain subject to state legislation.

Laws, it is said, are for the protection of the people. it's unfortunate that there are no statistics on the number of lives that are clobbered yearly as a result of laws: outmoded laws; laws that found their way onto the books as a result of ignorance, hysteria or political haymaking; antilife laws; biased laws; laws that pretend that reality is fixed and nature is definable; laws that deny people the right to refuse protection. a survey such as that could keep a dozen dull sociologists out of mischief for months.

The only way to be a champion is by going through these forced reps and the torture and pain. that's way i call it the torture routine. because it's like forced torture. torturing my body. what helps me is to think of this pain as pleasure. pain makes me grow. growing is what i want. therefore, for me pain is pleasure. and so when i am experiencing pain i'm in heaven. it's great. people suggest this is masochistic. but they're wrong. i like pain for a particular reason. i don't like needle's stuck in my arm. but i do like the pain that is necessary to be a champion.

Virtue that transgresses is but patched with sin; and sin that amends is but patched with virtue.

Grief does not end and love does not die and nothing fills its graven place. with grace, pain is transmuted into the gold of wisdom and compassion and the lesser coin of muted sadness and resignation; but something leaden of it remains, to become the kernel arond which more pain accretes (a black pearl): one pain becomes every other pain ... unless one strips away, one by one, the layers of pain to get to the heart of the pain - and this causes more pain, pain so intense as to feel like evisceration.

Consciousness Ethical Painter
How can i ever trust you? (acheron) you can’t. but i have lived inside your memories for the last three years. i know the pain you hide. i know the pain i caused. if i stay here, i will go mad from the screams. if i return to the vanishing isle, i’ll languish there alone and in time i will probably learn to hate you all over again. i don’t want to hate you anymore, acheron. you are a god who can control human fate. is it not possible that there was a reason why we were joined together? surely the fates meant for us to be brothers. (styxx)

One of life's most painful moments comes when we must admit that we didn't do our homework, that we are not prepared.

I felt like someone had ripped my heart out and tossed it across the other side of the room. there was a burning, agonizing pain in my chest, and i had no idea how it could ever be filled. it was one thing to accept that i couldn't have dimitri. it was something entirely different to realize someone else could.
