You know, people who don't fish think that fishing is lazy or boring, but it is the complete opposite. There are a hundred little decisions to be made, variables to be considered. And you're never quite sure what made the difference. Did I cast too high, too far to the left? Did I reel it in too slow, or, or, or too fast? Is the lure too shiny or too dull? Do I stay here, or should I go over there? - Rowan Pope

politics proposes to make us better, but we were good already in the mutual debt that can never be made good. We owe it to each other to falsify the institution, to make politics incorrect, to give the lie to our own determination. We owe each other the indeterminate. We owe each other everything. - Moten and Harney, the undercommons

For her part, Arendt worries over just such makings, insofar as they are likely predicated upon the instrumentalization of thinking and almost certainly entail thinking's reification: these makings, according to her, are "always paid for, and ... the price is life itself"; the thing, such as the book, ""is always the 'dead letter' in which the living spirit must survive, a deadness from which it can be rescued only when the dead letter comes again into contact with a life willing to resurrect it, although this resurrection of the dead shares with all living things that it, too, will die again"-nick salvato with hannah arendt

the answer is simple: like every generation before, we live in the aftermath.-steven j jackson, 'rethinking repair'

To the extent color consciousness existed among newly arrived immigrants from Ireland, it was one among several ways they had of identifying themselves. To become white they had to learn to subordinate county, religious, or national animosities, not to mention any natural sympathies they may have felt for their fellow creatures, to a new solidarity based on color bond which, it must be remembered, was contradicted by their experience in Ireland.-Noel Ignatiev, 'how the irish became white'

it's a transformative experience to simply pause instead of immediately filling up the space. by waiting, we begin to connect with fundamental restlessness as well as fundamental spaciousness-pema chödrön 'when things fall apart'

i want you to know i conducted a war for this, a war to lose my life. i lost it, i lost it. i reduced it to a death canoe, and it still came out as life. -maggie nelson, 'the latest winter'

uttered from the impasse of the present extend from this, cruel optimism's double bind: even with an image of a better good life available to sustain your optimism, it is awkward and it is threatening to detach from what is already not working-lauren berlant, 'on the desire for the political'
