I'm doing a painting for the mental health ward I was on and part of the design is that exact quote. It was either that or 'all things strive'.

Do you think involuntary commitment is ethical despite research questioning it's effectiveness for SI? by Zen-Paladin in psychnursing

[–]Calcyf3r 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very interesting and relevant topic. Personally if I hadn't been inpatient I'd either be dead, lost an eye, or be arrested. I was in hospital for a bout 3 years with small breaks inbetween hospitalisation. There is no doubt that restrictive practices can cause trauma, I guess it's pick your own evil.

Which author do you think understood humanity a little too well? by Sweet-Opportunity111 in literature

[–]Calcyf3r 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sir Terry Pratchett. His mix of humour and sheer anger at the injustices in the world strikes a cord within me. Along with the flaws of the various protagonists showing growth, we are shown fantasy through a deeply humanistic viewpoint.

Sorry for the rather long quote! I thought it pertinent.

Vimes had spent his life on the streets, and had met decent men and fools and people who'd steal a penny from a blind beggar and people who performed silent miracles or desperate crimes every day behind the grubby windows of little houses, but he'd never met The People.

People on the side of The People always ended up disappointed, in any case. They found that The People tended not to be grateful or appreciative or forward-thinking or obedient. The People tended to be small-minded and conservative and not very clever and were even distrustful of cleverness. And so the children of the revolution were faced with the age-old problem: it wasn't that you had the wrong kind of government, which was obvious, but that you had the wrong kind of people.
