Aldous Huxley
“Bottle of mine, it's you I've always wanted!
Bottle of mine, why was I ever decanted?

Skies are blue inside of you,
The weather's always fine;

For
There ain't no Bottle in all the world
Like that dear little Bottle of mine.”
Aldous Huxley, Brave New World and Brave New World Revisited

Plato
“Soma s猫ma estin.”
Plato

Aldous Huxley
“And if ever, by some unlucky chance, anything unpleasant should somehow happen, why, there's always soma to give you a holiday from the facts. And there's always soma to calm your anger, to reconcile you to your enemies, to make you patient and long-suffering. In the past you could only accomplish these things by making a great effort and after years of hard moral training. Now, you swallow two or three half-gramme tablets, and there you are. Anybody can be virtuous now. You can carry at least half your morality about in a bottle. Christianity without tears鈥搕hat's what soma is.”
Huxley, Aldous, Brave New World

Enock Maregesi
“Kwa sababu ya udadisi wa hali ya juu nasoma kila kitu ninachokutana nacho hasa vile visivyonipendeza. Ukitaka kupata maarifa usisome tu vitabu vinavyokupendeza. Soma vitabu visivyokupendeza.”
Enock Maregesi

Morris Berman
“Love denied, and the somatic experience of that denial, is鈹€as de Rougemont recognized鈹€the hidden, and gnostic/heretical, thread of Western History.”
Morris Berman, Coming to Our Senses: Body and Spirit in the Hidden History of the West

Morris Berman
“This is the ultimate heresy, then, and a possible outcome of a history of ascent, of system-breaks and paradigm-shifts that are exciting on one level, tedious on another: life characterized by so much somatic security, so much incarnation, that the need for 鈥渢ruth鈥� is far less important than the need for love; and finally, not really in conflict with it. Incarnation means living in life, not transcending it. The last paradigm-shift has to be a shift to a world in which paradigm-shifts become unnecessary, if not actually banal.”
Morris Berman, Coming to Our Senses: Body and Spirit in the Hidden History of the West

“There's a bunch of stuff I want to do. But a weapon of my own? That's something I don't have yet.”
Kokone Nata, Play It Cool, Guys, Vol. 1

Enock Maregesi

Enock Maregesi

Enock Maregesi
“Soma sana. Andika sana. Ongea na watu kuhusu mambo ya muhimu unayoyafikiria. Tumia intaneti na maktaba kwa makini kwa ajili ya utafiti, kwa sababu habari nyingi za intaneti na maktaba haziaminiki. Kama una wazo kichwani mwako lizungumze kwa watu kama mazungumzo ya kawaida, ili upate maoni yao ya dhati, bila kusahau kuandika kwa siri wazo lolote jipya utakalolipata kutokana na mazungumzo hayo. Maana Mungu anaweza kuwasiliana na mtu mwingine yeyote yule akupe wazo, litakaloongeza maana zaidi katika mawazo ambayo tayari unayo.”
Enock Maregesi

“Life is always better in your body. Get out of your mind.”
Lebo Grand

Sarah Lin
“There was more to the city than he'd thought at first, especially once he got away from the circular communities mimicking villages. Young people joyriding the gondola lines, elders playing slow games of skill, an entire community brewing various kinds of sweet alcohol. He discovered more recreational drugs than he'd expected, but because this was Tatian, they seemed to have few negative consequences and leave people mostly happy and calm.
Yet he couldn't bring himself to even consider participating in any of it, not for long.

Even though he'd had forty years to come to terms with the death of his old friends, their ghosts returned to him. Brigana would have convinced him to take a break, Khaluu would have proven surprisingly knowledgeable about hallucinogens, and Eratius would have resisted at first but eventually joined them.”
Sarah Lin, Soulhome
