Mr H Posted August 26 Share Posted August 26 What do sad people have in common? It seems they have all built a shrine To the past And often go there And do a strange wail and worship. What is the beginning of happiness? It is to stop being So religious Like that. Hafiz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talorgan Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 (edited) A convention is something which a number of people have agreed to accept in place of the Truth and to pass off for Truth upon others, preferably when they catch them young.

Screamingeagle Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism “Before mass leaders seize the power to fit reality to their lies, their propaganda is marked by its extreme contempt for facts as such, for in their opinion fact depends entirely on the power of man who can fabricate it.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talorgan Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 (edited) Now that we know how positive reinforcement works, and why negative doesn't,we can be more deliberate and hence more successful,in our cultural design. We can achieve a sort of control under which the controlled nethertheless feels free.They are doing what they want to do,not what they are forced to do.That's the source of the tremendous power of positive reinforcement --there's no restraint and no revolt. By a careful design,we control not the final behaviour,but the Inclination to behave ---the motives, the desires,the wishes. The curious thing is that in that case the question of freedom never arises. BF Skinner Edited September 29 by Talorgan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
