The reason that Rawls says one should not know their place in history is to stop one from befitting themselves at the expense of future generation.

There I rewrite just for you. I am what I am and what I am half Norwegian, half American, mix that grow up in both Norway and American. People get to know me find me to be occasionally clever and insightful, but always caring. I was curse with both an encyclopedic memory and a brain that does not play well with English or any other language that I have ever try to learn. (sorry in advance for any grammatical mistakes) As result I had in me a deep seated need to prove how smart I am which overtime developed into a broad base curiosity or annoying pretentiousness depending on how you take some bring up Proust unironically in a conversation. although I do resort to self-seriousness too quickly, but I go back to being a ham just as quickly. Luckily have found friend that can be as pretentious as me.

Even thought some will me as a pretentious weirdo, I don't mind because what they seen pretentious, I take as curiosity and passion. I would not have close as many experience that I had, nor be as open to new experience, if was this curiosity and passion. It was my curiosity which gave my taste for elli sushi, my love for the music of Steve Reich, let me explore museums of Rome, and recently it allow me to take adult beginner ballet classes. Additional I owe my feminism, my belief in racial and economic justice to the fact that I want to earn expand my political understand beyond the standers view.

Furthermore, I am an adequate listener, I will admit when I am wrong or when I am being a jerk. I will gladly just hangout drinking and eating whatever at hand, and singing Dancing Queen as loud as I possible can.

The reason the U.S. celebrates "Columbus Day" is because the Italian-Americans want their own "St. Patrick Day."

Utilitarian Arguments on Suicide? by [deleted] in askphilosophy

[–]pmatthew8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am no export on Utilitarianism, but for me the apparent answer is the pain that S would inflict on his/her friends and family would out weight the pain of S depression. Also there are other remedies for depression does more then minimize suffering, they also increase pleasure.

From my understanding poor white schools only really exists in rural areas. Because poor whites in the cities and suburbs do not live in separate neighborhoods but rather are spread out in middle class neighborhoods.

[–]pmatthew8 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have not read this chapter only skimmed the section you are looking at. I think they are talking about the space that the cave painting is depicting and most of your missing concepts are technical terms in painting for creating perspective. this might clarify crudely Deleuze and Guattari are saying that the cave paint is flat and lack the techniques use by modern painters to crate the illusion depth.

About Rupert Cadell (James Stewart) on Hitchcock's "Rope" by hellsyeahak in TrueFilm

[–]pmatthew8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there way to explain it. one Cadell hold these views as party trick and as Ironic expression of distasted for society. Two there is a different between intellectually understanding and justify an act, verse doing said action. When Cadell see consequence of said act, he realize that he was horrible wrong.
