It is the peculiarity of privilege and of every privileged position to kill the intellect and heart of man. The privileged man, whether he be privileged politically or economically, is a man depraved in intellect and heart.

We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect. The judgement of the intellect is only part of the truth.
Some women can be fooled all of the time, and all women can be fooled some of the time, but the same woman can't be fooled by the same man in the same way more than half of the time.

La Gonave
La gonave I see your mist
La gonave well I know youre kissed
By the same sea of trouble
That stretches back home
La gonave
Youve got troubles of your own
Yes I got troubles
Wont you come on and see
I got my needs just follow me
But they gonna ease by and by
If you tell all the people
That its no lie
You only came for forty eight hours
Didnt realise how useless I was
Came to you for the nation sells lies
Lord knows but I still feel helpless
La gonave I dont feel good
La gonave do you think I should
Turn my back and walk away
La gonave tell me what to say
If Id been at home
Would you telephone me
Im situated across the sea
But its a small world from any point
Of view
Spare a thought
This could have been you
You shook my senses
Took my time
Froze my feeling
Broke my mind
La gonave youve played your part
La gonave you sure got heart
Didnt leave my heart in san francisco
Didnt want to stay in omaha
Never got fooled by new york city
But I lost my heart to la gonave
Didnt leave my heart in san francisco
Didnt want to stay in omaha
Never got fooled by new york city
But I lost my heart to la gonave
Didnt leave my heart in san francisco
Didnt want to stay in omaha
Never got fooled by new york city
But I lost my heart to la gonave

Fooled Again
Strange voice on the telephone
Tellin' me i better leave you 'lone
Why won't somebody say what's goin' on
Oh, oh, i think i've been through this before
Looks like i've been fooled again
Looks like i'm the fool again
I don't like it, i don't like it
You never said you had no longer to
I need to know 'bout it if you do
If two is one, i might as well be three
It's good to see you think so much of me
Looks like i've been fooled again
Looks like i'm the fool again
I don't like it, i don't like it
You never said you had no longer to
I need to know 'bout it if you do
If two is one, i might as well be three
It's good to see you think so much of me
Looks like i've been fooled again
Looks like i'm the fool again
I don't like it, i do n't like it

Language is the soul of intellect, and reading is the essential process by which that intellect is cultivated beyond the commonplace experiences of everyday life.

As you see, I do not treat the creation of fiction, that to say the invention and development of fantasies, as a form of abstract thought. I don't wish to deny the uses of the intellect, but sometimes one has the intuition that the intellect by itself will lead one nowhere.

Seers with intellects
Intellect is behind a mission’s success.
Ideals it stands for matters the least.
One’s intellect sees it grow and branch.
Seers’ intellects not virtues make them great.

Everybodys Fool
Perfect by nature, icons of self-indulgence
Just what we all need
More lies about a world
That never was and never will be
Have you no shame, dont you see me?
You know youve got everybody fooled.
Look here she comes now -
Bow down and stare in wonder.
Oh, how we love you
No flaws when youre
But now I know she -
Never was and never will be
You dont know how you betrayed me
And somehow youve got everybody fooled.
Without the mask
Where will you hide?
Cant find yourself,
Lost in your lies
I know the truth now
I know who you are
And I dont love you anymore
Never was and never will be
You dont know how you betrayed me
And somehow youve got everybody fooled.
Never was and never will be
Not for real that you can save me
And somehow now youre everybodys fool.

None speak of the bravery, the might, or the intellect of Jesus; but the devil is always imagined as a being of acute intellect, political cunning, and the fiercest courage. These universal and instinctive tendencies of the human mind reveal much.

Intellect
You might have possessed so many things
The stars, the sun, the moon, the whole universe
But if you have not possessed me
You possess nothing!
You are a blunt, a dullard dull
The beggar of the street.
You might be proud of so many things which
One can't have today but tomorrow can
And all these things dwindle when you distribute
But I am the exception and the opposite
The maximum use of anything is a poison
But I become the nectar if you use the maximum
You might have written on so many things
from hell to heaven
You might have composed so many poems
from complex to simple
But if you have not on me,
you have written or composed nothing!
you are neither a poet nor a writer.
you have not achieved anything either!
You might have believed on so many things
But if you have not believed me
You have believed nothing
As I am the unbelievable to believe
The strength, the power
If you hone me
I cut, cut very sharply
I create, create very absolutely
I can give the desires the wings
I can make fly the colorful dreams..
So hone me, hone me! hone me!
You might have sung so many songs
But If you have not sung the song of me
You are not a singer
You are a deaf!
You are a dumb!
So sing intellect! intellect! intellect!
Sing intellect! intellect! intellect!
The creator of every human creations
The inventor of every inventions
The real power, the real beauty
The real achievement of human history.

My great religion is a belief in the blood, the flesh, as being wiser than the intellect. We can go wrong in our minds. But what our blood feels and believes and says, is always true. The intellect is only a bit and a bridle.

Walls
I know your name from what they are
Telling me.
They say that cruelty is born. That cruelty
Has a tendency to stay.
It is you. They mention the name of your
Husband. He died with a forlorn heart.
It is you. They say you never mentioned
His name. Not even once. You are cruel.
We meet today in this room. I am not afraid.
I am prepared. I will not be fooled
When you call me. You mention my name.
You appear sweet. Like some candy bar.
I cannot be fooled.
I tell myself. I am a wall. I am inside a very
Thick wall. I cannot hear you.
I do not wish
To be a part of you. No matter how sweet
You call my name.
They say that cruelty repeats itself.
And that I can be a fool sometimes.
I am a wall. I do not believe
This to happen to myself too.
You look at me. I am about to leave.

Taxidermists
To the calf-less cow, a stuffed calf
Serves as a stimulus. She is in fantasy
To squash her teats.
To a thirsty man, a woman in photo
Or in thought is held in fantasy
To release his seeds.
Cow is fooled. Man is self-fooled.
