Discourse

And he used to argue that labour was a good thing by adducing the examples of the great Hercules and the Kairas, one of which he derived from the Greeks and the other from the barbarians.

He was also the first person who ever gave the definition of a discourse, saying, Discourse is that which shows what anything is or was.

And he used continually to say, I would rather go mad than feel pleasure.

And, one ought to attach oneself to such women as will thank one for it he said once to a youth from pontus who was on the point of coming to him to be his pupil and was asking him what he wanted you want a new book and a new pen and a new tablet meaning a new mind and to a person who asked him from what country he had better marry a wife he said If you marry a handsome woman, she will be a common.

So we got into a conversation about masculine and feminine energy and polarity.

And let's just say that the discourse was a slight debate, okay? In other words, we had two kind of not radically opposing opinions, but we had two different, the lens was different for each one of us.

So our initial conversation was kind of, you know, Discourse is just another word for conversation.

But we almost were in debate mode.

She had her point of view.

Wow, those are both really good.

Hey y'all, Editor Elise here, just letting you know that we had some technical issues going forward here when we were switching between watching our videos and our audio and blah blah blah tech stuff that I personally don't understand, but resulted in us losing Millie introducing the discourse.

So, um...

Just imagine that Millie has introduced the discourse.

You know, she said the whole thing, like, the discourse is our segment where we talk about something everybody's talking about and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

And then we're going to pick up from there.

As I was writing this, we do have to come up with an analogy of a life cycle of a meme, like how cells, like kind of whatever.

But if you really wanna let us know, you click on the link in the show notes.

That'll give you access to our members community, which is Discourse, and then join the conversation.

Loads of our listeners are talking about their perceptions.

Not always positive, but be really interested to hear what you think.

I'm pro-concept, but I'm anti-terms and topics.

Anti-discourse.

But besides that, I think I feel so grateful to have so many people who will talk to me honestly about music in New York.

And I think that I just wish for everyone to be so lucky.

Precepts 33 to 41.

33 begin by prescribing to yourself some character and demeanour such as you may preserve both alone and in company be mostly silent or speak merely what is needful and in few words we may however enter sparingly into discourse sometimes when occasion calls for it but let it not run on any of the common subjects as gladiators or horse-races or athletic champions or food or drink the vulgar topics of conversation, and especially not on men, so as either to blame or praise, or make comparisons.

If you are able, then, by your own conversation, bring over that of your company to proper subjects.

But if you happen to find yourself among strangers, be silent.

Before marriage, guard yourself with all your ability from unlawful intercourse with women, yet be not uncharitable or severe to those who are led into this, nor boast frequently that you yourself do otherwise.

If anyone tells you that a certain person speaks ill of you, do not make excuses about what is said of you, but answer, He was ignorant of my other faults, else he would not have mentioned these alone.

it is not necessary for you to appear often at public spectacles but if ever there is a proper occasion for you to be there do not appear more solicitous for any other than for yourself that is wish things to be only just as they are and only the best man to win for thus nothing will go against you but abstain entirely from acclamations and derision and violent emotions And when you come away, do not discourse a great deal on what has passed, and what contributes nothing to your own amendment.

For it would appear by such discourse that you were dazzled by the show.
