"Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks--those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters; for everything about him is ripe for the harvest."

Friedrich Nietzsche
Thus Spoke Zarathustra

I'm really looking forward to reading Nietzsche.

I HEART NIETZSCHE.
He had a huge mustache.
Syphilis.
and awesome ideas and shit.

He was amazing, but not nearly as amazing as Sartre,
who had great ideas,
The ability to write well,
And was crosseyed.

No, no, Molly, Sartre was not cross-eyed.
The term is, "googly-eyed".

[crookedspleen]

well, technically he had two lazy eyes.
like Jesus Christ times two.

Consider this: If you have two lazy eyes, can either be considered "lazy"? Is laziness relative?

[fatglenda]

According to some Orthodox website, Jesus really did have a lazy eye.
So maybe Ted Neely wasn't only cast for his Jesus-esque looks.
Maybe he was hired for the lazy eye too.

This particular Pantocrator has one eye, the right eye, larger than the other. Of course the different-sized eyes have a particular meaning. Each eye stands for one of Christ's two natures - the larger right eye for his divine nature and the smaller left eye for his humanity. In naturalistic terms, the left eye is a so-called "lazy eye".

Just because you can't understand something does not mean it's written poorly.

Now, I had to chuckle. Now, quite frankly, I trust Walter Kaufmann, A Professor Of Philosophy At Princeton, much more than I trust you. Now, I must say that you are rather pretensious.
