“I think that knowledge enslaves us, that at the base of all knowledge there is a servility, the acceptation of a way of life wherein each moment has meaning only in relation to another or others that will follow it.”

— Georges Bataille, The Unfinished System of Nonknowledge

“But the paradox of love is perhaps the same as that of art, which Jeanette Winterson so elegantly termed “the paradox of active surrender” — in order for either to transform us, we must let it turn us over and inside-out. That is what Rilke called love’s great exacting claim, and in that claim lies its ultimate reward.”

— Maria Popova, “Kafka’s Beautiful and Heartbreaking Love Letters” (via soracities)

Theodore Herlz, father of Political Zionism: Yeah, it's colonial

Ze'ev Jabotinsky, father of Revisionist Zionism: Yeah, it's colonial

Relevant quotes:

Herzl wrote to Cecil Rhodes, "It doesn’t involve Africa, but a piece of Asia Minor; not Englishmen but Jews… How, then, do I happen to turn to you since this is an out-of-the-way matter for you? How indeed? Because it is something colonial...

Theodore Herzl's letter to Cecil Rhodes from unpublished letters by Theodore Herzl (11th of January 1901)

"The Jews could in short time assume the leading position in the economy of the new land. Jewish migration must be transformed from immigration into colonization"

Poale Zion, Our Platform, B. Borochov (1906)

"We cannot offer any adequate compensation to the Palestinian Arabs in return for Palestine. And therefore, there is no likelihood of any voluntary agreement being reached. So that all those who regard such an agreement as a condition sine qua non for Zionism may as well say "non" and withdraw from Zionism. Zionist colonisation must either stop, or else proceed regardless of the native population"

Iron Wall, Ze'ev Jabotinksy (1923)

If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti-Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?”

David Ben Gurion, quoted in The Jewish paradox, Nahum Goldmann (1973)
