COMPASSION

Affirmation of life is the spiritual act by which man ceases to live thoughtlessly and begins to devote himself to his life
with reverence in order to give it true value.

Marshall McLuhan Quotes

When you give people too much information, they instantly resort to pattern recognition to structure the experience.  The work of the artist is to find patterns.
-M.M.
Environments are invisible.  Their ground rules, pervasive structure, and overall patterns elude easy perception.
- M.M.

For tribal man space itself is the enemy because it is charged with voodoo menace.  For such a man the beautiful is that which suggests the indestructible or the invulnerable.  Just as, for the time-frayed the womb-like security of the limousine is beautiful because it promises pneumatic bliss.
- M.M.
