The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now. ~an old proverb
Być mniejszością. Jeśli być kimkolwiek, to tylko przedstawicielem mniejszości. Nigdy większości, nigdy. I tego się trzymam, choćby mniejszość miała być jednoosobowa. ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
There is not a monarch alive who has not, by sheer force of nature, been removed from the cares and concerns of his or her citizens. ~ A Treatise on Governance #DivinityOriginalSinII @larianstudios.bsky.social
Sny są ważne (...), rzucają cień na całą jawę. ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
Obcy we własnym domu. (...) Warmiacy musieli zmienić kraj, porzucić go. I to w równym stopniu ci, którzy wyjechali, jak i ci, którzy zostali. Zostali na miejscu, ale już nie u siebie. (...) Niby na swoim, (...) a obcy. ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
Dziewiętnastowieczny pomysł na segregowanie ludzi, na ich zbieranie w te ideowe kupy, w narody, od razu śmierdzi zabijaniem, już z daleka. Dziwne, że się tak długo utrzymał. ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
Przynależność narodowa ludzka coraz bardziej mierzi. ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
All kings, like their castles, must crumble. ~ #Bahara #DivinityOriginalSinII @larianstudios.bsky.social
(...) strachem przejmuje mnie zaglądanie w przeszłość. Jak to, tych wszystkich skomplikowanych ludzi, którzy już nie żyją i nie mogą się bronić swoją własną opowieścią, swoimi własnymi słowami, miałabym zamknąć w jednym zdaniu jak w stalowej klatce? ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
Każdy jest skomplikowany i zupełnie nie wierzę w istnienie prostych ludzi. Dlatego takim strachem przejmuje mnie zaglądanie w przeszłość. Jak to, tych wszystkich skomplikowanych ludzi (...) miałabym zamknąć w jednym zdaniu jak w stalowej klatce? ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
(...) mam do tego prawo, które sobie sama nadaję. ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
Pejzaż Warmii (...). Pagórki tak figlarnie łamiące perspektywę, że człowiek nigdy nie czuł się odsłonięty, jakby podany na talerzu, ale otulony miękko pejzażem. ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
Każdy człowiek jest wieloosobową celą; nie ma co ukrywać, nikt sam nie siedzi. ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
Wiadomo, wojny nie kończą się nigdy, dopiero kolejna wojna nieco je przesłania, potem następna, jak fale, które muszą po sobie przyjść. ~ #KrólWarmiiiSaturna #JoannaWilengowska
Reconsideration is hard; it takes courage. We have to deny ourselves the comfort of always being the same person, one who arrived at an answer some time ago and has never had any reason to doubt it. In other words, we have to stay open. ~George Saunders
"In a world full of people who seem to know everything, passionately, based on little (often slanted) information, where certainty is often mistaken for power, what a relief it is to be in the company of someone confident enough to stay unsure (that is, perpetually curious)."
How to love the world more – on George Saunders's birthday, his magnificent meditation on the courage of uncertainty (one of my favorite things I have ever read)
Openness to more — to truth beyond story, to beauty beyond certainty — is precisely what teaches us how to love the world more. ~Maria Popova

Reality is not singular but plural, not a point of view but a plane of possible vantages. ~Maria Popova

I think, therefore I am wrong, after which I speak, and my wrongness falls on someone also thinking wrongly, and then there are two of us thinking wrongly. ~George Saunders

I think, therefore I am wrong, after which I speak, and my wrongness falls on someone also thinking wrongly, and then there are two of us thinking wrongly, and, being human, we can’t bear to think without taking action, which, having been taken, makes things worse. ~George Saunders

There is no world save the one we make with our minds, and the mind’s predisposition determines the type of world we see. ~George Saunders

Off we go, mistaking the world we’ve made with our thoughts for the real world. Evil and dysfunction (or at least obnoxiousness) occur in proportion to how solidly a person believes that his projections are correct and energetically acts upon them. ~George Saunders

In every instant, a delusional gulf gets created between things as we think they are and things as they actually are. Off we go, mistaking the world we’ve made with our thoughts for the real world. ~George Saunders
