  Death has very little meaning - 17 April 1980 
  • Is there a totally different way of approaching the whole turmoil of life? 
  • As long as the centre is creating darkness, and thought is operating in that dark 
  ness, there must be disorder, there must be everything as society now is. To 
  move away from that you must have insight. 
  • Insight can only come about when there is a flash which abolishes not only the 
  darkness but the creator of darkness. 
  • Human beings have been acting according to one pattern, responding to 
  hatred by hatred and so on. There are those few, perhaps many, who did not. 
  Why has this division taken place? 
  • The man who is living in darkness can move away at any time to the other. That 
  is the point: at any time. 
  • What happens to a mind that has no conflict?

  Woman Hating

  "Reissued with a bold, modern package, Andrea Dworkin's debut book Woman Hating argues that a deep-rooted hatred of women in history, art, politics, and beyond has reigned―and influenced and formed culture―for centuries. 
   
  A classic work in the canon of radical feminist thinking, Andrea Dworkin's 1974 debut Woman Hating is a stunning exploration of how women, and the idea of women, have been treated through the centuries. From fairy tales to erotic novels to medieval witch burnings, Dworkin uncovers the ways in which a rhetoric of hate and violence against women has been historically normalized, leading to a history of degradation, mutilation, and even killing. 
   
  This audiobook is expertly read by Erin deWard, with audio engineering by Austin Conway. It was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont."

  Immortality of the Gods -...

  Each of us are alive for a very limited time. Or are we? 
  What if we could live not just for a century but for millennia? What if there were a way for us to never die? Is such a thing even remotely possible? 
  It may not only be feasible; it may very well have been achieved in the distant past. Ancient aliens may well have uncovered the secrets behind slowing, and ultimately completely stopping, the aging process. 
  History is filled with accounts of fantastic beings, powerful gods, and half-human/half-alien entities that had extraordinarily long life spans. Many such stories are now largely dismissed as nothing more than the stuff of legend, folklore, and mythology. But what if the accounts are all too real? 
  Highlights of Immortality of the Gods include: 
  The story of the legendary Anunnaki, how they achieved everlasting life, and why they shared their secrets with Noah, Methuselah, and other biblical figures; 
  The saga of Gilgamesh, a long-lived part-human, part-extraterrestrial Sumerian ruler who was obsessed with immortality; and 
  A study of the claims that one of the reasons for the 2003 invasion of Iraq was to uncover the millennia-old secrets of white powder gold, a manna-like substance that supposedly rejuvenates cells and tissue.

  Charles II - George II - Tea...

  Gilbert Abbott À Beckett

  Charles Featherstone gleefully narrates the uproarious finale of A’Beckett’s Comic History, skewering Britain’s glorious descent into chaos after Queen Anne. Witness thick-accented German kings fumbling through English, ministers auctioning the nation’s dignity, and England drowning in get-rich-quick scams – all while crinolines expanded and sense evaporated. 
  meet George I, shuffling mistresses in and out of palace cupboards while dodging Jacobite assassins; his son George II, shrieking battlefield commands in mangled English (and reportedly dropping his trousers for "luck" mid-cavalry charge); and Britain’s "first" Prime Minister, Robert Walpole, who perfected bribery as statecraft with the immortal quip: "Every man has his price... and mine is remarkably low!" 
  Witness the South Sea Bubble—a frenzy of greed that saw nobles and cobblers alike betting fortunes on "vapor and paperwork" until the economy imploded (though London’s wig-makers somehow thrived). Hold your breath as Bonnie Prince Charlie’s tartan-clad Jacobite rebels storm south in the ’45 Rising, only to collapse into farce when the prince reportedly fled a dessert fork "quivering in his pudding." And marvel at Britain’s global gambles: empires built on naval mutinies over rancid limes, colonial cash-grabs, and taxes on everything from windows to gin—all while Germanic kings gazed wistfully toward Saxony. 
  Perfect for fans of Blackadder the Third and The Perfect for fans of Blackadder the Third and the screwball intrigue of The Favourite, this riotous finale proves Britain’s "Enlightenment" was really enlightened self-interest—a stumble toward greatness paved with blunders, bribes, and enough powdered wigs to choke a horse.
