Let us admit that we have attended parties where for one brief night a republic of gratified desires was attained. Shall we not confess that the politics of that night have more reality and force for us than those of, say, the entire U.S. Government? Some of the "parties" we've mentioned lasted for two or three years. Is this something worth imagining, worth fighting for? Let us study invisibility, webworking, psychic nomadism--and who knows what we might attain? ↗

These are moments of wonder -- see them and remember. ↗

I’ve long believed that the gods give us the music we’re supposed to hear at the times we’re supposed to hear it, because all music, even lyrical and regardless of language performed in, is in and of itself an inherently magical language that can, at proper times, speak to the soul. ↗

The truth is that Monash and Melbourne Universities are almost exactly the same in as far as the Economics/Commerce faculty goes. No University can fully prepare you for the real world. Melbourne has name and prestige while the economics and statistics departments at Monash are renowned for their research. ↗
