found this in my inbox the morn:
"Who were the fools who spread the story that brute force cannot kill ideas?
Nothing is easier. And once they are dead they are no more than corpses.
Simone Weil"
I ask: what kind of idea-swilling brute force killed something not (yet)
"ideas" that gave rise to the empire of "ideas"? The ("no more than")
corpses that "ideas" killed still lie underground: will their day of
resurrection come? Ereignis?
