Liberation from ignorance is as painful as being born

The problem’s not that the truth is harsh but that liberation from ignorance is as painful as being born. Run after the truth until you’re breathless. Accept the pain in re-creating yourself afresh. These ideas will take a life to comprehend, a hard one interspersed with drunken moments. — Naguib Mafouz from Palace of Desire

GENERAL DISCLAIMER: I often publish authors whose articles I appreciate while maybe not agreeing with everything. My pieces, also, cannot stand alone. Some of my work contains ideas that may sometimes seem to contradict other pieces because all cannot be said in a short essay. It's wise to not make assumptions based on a few posts. Attitudes have also not remained stagnant over time and the archives reflect the passage of time. Some articles may contain links to other resources on the Internet. These links are provided as citations and aids to help you identify and locate more information and are not intended to state or imply that this site recommends, endorses, supports, sponsors, or is in any way affiliated or associated with any person or entity associated with the linked material.
