It is so much easier to not hate your neighbor once you understand and feel how wretched you are. Now, due to this wretchedness, loving said neighbors is not so easy.

True uselessness is not just practical contradiction (i.e. something cannot be used to achieve some end). Rather, it is in the inability to enter into practical reason at all.

A demon wears a cross and begs for mercy, for healing, for its heart to be thawed, for the way to be shown to it with the brilliance of the sun. "I know not how to control my spirit and my flesh. My heart is divided between too masters, and two heads rest upon my body."

There is something sublime in destroying oneself by subordinating everything to a single end. I hope that I will be given the grace to do this one day.

Not admitting that real sacrifices are made when scarcity exists, even if it is human made (which it often is), results in the creation of non-people, or a class of people who are not considered in resource distribution and thus do not get a share.

Any attempt to "preserve the human race" or "protect our civilization" is evil because it is pro-natalist. If it so happens that things continue, fair enough, but trying to continue it is a no go.

Like all concepts, "good" and "evil" are metaphors that are connected to our practices and modes of living. "Good" relates to our feelings of attraction, of being drawn toward, of longing to be joined with.
