Serious answer: Well, it has to; statements like that are never said with no context. ...surely there's something bad about that? Surely it's a subtle condemnation of the irrational masses? Or else it's triumphing the irrational over cold , sterile, limiting rationality... I can't tell which. So, is this an admirable thing or a despicable one? Is it the right or wrong way to be? Surely it's one or the other... |

Every. Single. Time. Which one is this - good or bad? Admirable or despicable? I'm not a fan of dichotomous thinking...it may be a Buddhist thing.

I don't put good or bad judgment to words but always
Every Single Time Like to know the thinking & the WHY behind the words from the originator though I myself can place my own meanings on generally stated words...I am always interested in the historical backing behind them in the first place.

What we can achieve if we work together is infinitely more precious than we can achieve on our own.

I was listening to one of the Downton Abby seasons & one quote really hit me as how I have always thought:
"Harsh reality is better than FALSE hope"

maybe asking if being feeling-dominant is good or bad, the answer is available.
I'll take unreasonable faith for $500 please
