"Sole dell'avvenire"
The sun of the Future

"You look up when you desire to be exalted. And I look down, because I am exalted" Friedrich Nietzsche (thus Spoke Zarathustra)

"The ironist is an actor in the drama of not knowing and of false knowledge. He is acting a part. He is wearing a mask. And in this way he seperates the actors from their masks. His words are false (and he knows that they are false), but their goal is truth. He acts out alienation in order to disalienate himself and others. He assumes the role of the villian and, if necessary, pretends to be behaving in bad faith, but by a process of dissimulation he supersedes bad faith, as well as superseding that crass and simplistic phenomenon , genuine or assumed, known as 'a clear conscience' " -Henri Lefebvre

"Far more profoundly, the Greeks identified the powers of darkness with the Titans, one of whom stole fire from the sun. History begins with a crime: Prometheus stealing time from eternity and consciousness from the gods, as indifferent and distant as the heart of nature itself. No creation, no invention without a sin against what was and what wants only to be, world without end. Every step forward is a sin: Oedipus, Socrates, Ulysses. Myths speak of power, and justify it. Only with the myth of the devil is power challenged." Henri Lefebvre

"As for the idea of nature 'in-itself', it carries with it great illusion. Leisure activities and holidays must be the true life. The true life starts the moment we go away. Pure nature and pure pleasure must go hand in hand. Alas, this is how labor, family and objective morality call the wandering sheep back into the fold. For those whose eyes are dazzled by the illusion, what is real becomes the opposite of what is true, and life as it truly is (real life) becomes the opposite of the true life. The true life parts company with life as it truly is. And the ideal loses its link with reality. they are severed forever. Reality reveals truth to be an illusion, and the phony exaltation of nature destroys our link with the world as it truly is. after this mutual belittlement, what are we left with? an enormous disappointment."
Henri Lefebvre
