Daydreaming Idly

Intellectual dilettante. Contrarian intellect, diplomatic temperament. Time spent with your head in the clouds is time well spent.

"It is reality that awakens possibilities, and nothing would be more perverse than to deny it. Even so, it will always be the same possibilities, either in sum or on the average, that go on repeating themselves until a man comes along who does not value the actuality over the idea. It is he who first gives the new possibilities their meaning, their directions, and he awakens them."

- Robert Musil, The Man Without Qualities

"The truth will set you free. But not until it is done with you."

- David Foster Wallace

”Minnesotans’ right to fair and transparent elections have been severely compromised since the Supreme Court held that American corporations can spend unlimited amounts of money on elections. This constitutional amendment would authorize Congress to regulate the raising and spending of money in federal and state campaigns, which is why I strongly support it.

Sen. Al Franken(D-MN), explaining his decision to co-sponsor a soon-to-be proposed Constitutional amendment in the U.S. Senate. The amendment aims to give Congress the ability to regulate the amount of money spent on federal and state political campaigns. (via manicchill)
