Mark  Lawrence
“Cold has its own taste. It tastes of a bitten tongue. It coils around you, a living thing, a beast that means to kill you, not with wrath, not with tooth nor claw, but with the mercy of surrender, with the kindness of letting you go gentle into the long night after such a burden of pain and misery.”
Mark Lawrence, Prince of Fools

Gregory Bateson
“We commonly speak as though a single 'thing' could 'have' some characteristic. A stone, we say, is 'hard,' 'small,' 'heavy,' 'yellow,' 'dense,' etc.

That is how our language is made: 'The stone is hard.' And so on. And that way of talking is good enough for the marketplace: 'That is a new brand.' 'The potatoes are rotten.' 'The container is damaged.' ... And so on.

But this way of talking is not good enough in science or epistemology. To think straight, it is advisable to expect all qualities and attributes, adjectives, and so on to refer to at least -two- sets of interactions in time. ...

Language continually asserts by the syntax of subject and predicate that 'things' somehow 'have' qualities and attributes. A more precise way of talking would insist that the 'things' are produced, are seen as separate from other 'things,' and are made 'real' by their internal relations and by their behaviour in relationship with other things and with the speaker.

It is necessary to be quite clear about the universal truth that whatever 'things' may be in their pleromatic and thingish world, they can only enter the world of communication and meaning by their names, their qualities and their attributes (i.e., by reports of their internal and external relations and interactions).”
Gregory Bateson, Mind and Nature: A Necessary Unity

Enock Maregesi
“Pesa ina thamani pale unapokuwa nayo, si pale unapokuwa huna, hivyo iweke mahali unapoweza kuiona: katika nyumba, katika shamba au katika elimu. Badala ya kumpa mtu pesa ili ajenge nyumba, mpe nyumba. Badala ya kumpa mtu pesa ili afanye biashara, mpe biashara. Halafu, mpe elimu afanye maamuzi ya biashara yake. Pesa ina laana na Mungu pekee ndiye anayeweza kuiondoa laana hiyo. Ni rahisi kwa tajiri kupata baraka ya pesa kwa sababu ana pesa na ana uwezo mkubwa wa kusaidia maskini. Ni vigumu kwa maskini kupata baraka ya pesa kwa sababu hana au ana uwezo mdogo wa kusaidia maskini. Mungu anaweza kuondoa laana ya pesa kupitia hisani kwa maskini, kitu ambacho aghalabu hufanywa na matajiri wenye uwezo mkubwa. Heri kutoa kitu au huduma au elimu kwa maskini kuliko pesa.”
Enock Maregesi
