Re: Here's a list of selected quotes from this episode with timecodes pretty close to when they star ottonomy March 9 2008, 02:43:52 UTC
36 1:12:40 One of the things I think we need to talk about … is I think that this whole thing about how do we feminize society, and women are not getting their fair shake and what do we do about white male dominators, and all that…this is all somewhat cockamamie in terms of the idea that we need to feminize men. We don't need to feminize men, we need to feminize society.
37 1:15:00 Intuition refers back to "nothing comes unannounced:" that's intuition, but the rational mind has a real ability to slough off the intuition… Intuition is basically a function of listening.
38 1:18:30 There is more than one way to force novelty out of a system, and simply repetitiously breeding, that's a habitual activity, and it does force a certain kind of novelty, but it's a novelty born of desperation. My notion is that you get much more novelty out of a system if every person is valued, if every person has leisure time and opportunity for education and this sort of thing.
39 1:25:42 We cannot become the species we want to be with an unconscious mind. That's an artifact of the monkey phase that has no place in a global civilization.
40 1:27:00 The challenge of post-modernity, the challenge of the psychedelic, millennarian, eschatonic world, is the challenge of our own daily lives and relationships.
