Naivety

Utilitarianism, socialism, democracy criticizes the origin of moral valuations, but it believes them just as much as the Christian does.

Naivete, as if morality could survive when the God who sanctions it is missing.

Nietzsche wrote in Ecce Homo that he lived 200 years before his time, as he seemed to believe that his prophecy about the death of God would take some time to be truly felt as the big cataclysmic event that it was.

So far, he seems to be correct, even in the 21st century so far, and certainly with regards to Victorian England.

And I think that that actually helps.

Naivete, nine times out of ten is bad.

This is actually pretty good.

Yeah, if you don't know how things are quote-unquote supposed to go, then you can change those things.

I believe it's how you lift people out of everything from ignorance, racism, stupidity.

It's Naivety, you know, all of these things, if you educate people, you empower them to actually be a solution to their own problems.

And nobody understands that as well as the preparedness community.

And these textbooks, you know, they are such a great way to empower people with that education.

We started on the 1st of November, which is funny, actually.

Naivety is a blessing because now, with so much experience in outdoor swimming, I'd never dreamed of starting an adventure in November.

But because Blah worked the canal boats, barge boats in summer, she wasn't free until the 1st of November.

So I just thought I'll be fine.

And that's my hope in the world because like somehow it aligns.

Naivety is what the challenge is.

Somehow it aligns and we're safe again.

Yeah.

I can compete with anybody because why?

What did you do? Naivete, stupidity, youth, you know, all of those, right? So I had actually designed my first speaker in 1981 when I was 16 in high school.

I became an audiophile pretty young.

My father had been into audio and hi-fi and in late mono and early stereo, 50s, 60s, 70s, and so he turned me onto it.

We'll be right back.

Get me away from here, I'm dying Play me a song to set me free Nobody writes them like they used to So it may as well be me Here I'm all now after hours Here I'm all now on a bus Think of it this way You could either be successful or be us with our catchy tunes or was now a photogenic you know we don't stand a chance Settled down with some old story About a boy who's just like me Thought there was love in everything And everyone, you're so naive They always reach a sorry ending They always get it in the end Still it was worth it as I turned the pages Naivety succeeds at the final moment I cry.

what I meant to say at all from where I'm sitting rain falling against the lonely tenement has set my mind to wander into the windows of my lovers they never know unless This is no declaration, I just thought I'd let you know goodbye Said the hero in this story, it is mightier than swords I could kill you, sure, but I could only make you cry with these words I'm dying.

Get me away.
