“We’re the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War’s a spiritual war… our Great Depression is our lives. We’ve all been raised on television to believe that one day we’d all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won’t. And we’re slowly learning that fact. And we’re very, very pissed off.” Chuck Palahniuk, Figh...

How is freedom measured in individuals and peoples? According to the resistance which must be overcome, according to the exertion required, to remain on top.

"Maybe we have to break everything to make something better out of ourselves." - Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club https://www.amazon.com/Fight-Club-Novel-Chuck-Palahniuk

“Man has had to fight for every atom of the truth, and has had to pay for it almost everything that the heart, that human love, that human trust cling to. Greatness of soul is needed for this business: the service of truth is the hardest of all services.”  –  Friedrich Nietzsche, The Antichrist

“To call the taming of an animal its “improvement” is in our ears almost a joke. Whoever knows what goes on in menageries is doubtful whether the beasts in them are “improved”. They are weakened, they are made less harmful, they become sickly beasts through the depressive emotion of fear, through pain, through injuries, through hunger. – It is no different with the tamed human being…” - Friedrich...
