Marriage of heaven and hell the

William Blake

The Prophets Isaiah and Ezekiel dined with me, and I asked them how they dared so roundly to assert that God spoke to them; and whether they did not think at the time that they would be misunderstood, and so be the cause of imposition. 
Isaiah answer'd: `I saw no God, nor heard any, in a finite organical perception; but my senses discover'd the infinite in everything, and as I was then persuaded, and remain confirm'd, that the voice of honest indignation is the voice of God, I cared not for consequences, but wrote.' 
Then I asked: `Does a firm persuasion that a thing is so, make it so?' 
He replied: `All Poets believe that it does, and in ages of imagination this firm persuasion removed mountains; but many are not capable of a firm persuasion of anything.'

Trump: Modern Shaman -...

Leo Van

Trump: Modern Shaman - An Unparalleled Analysis of America's Most Controversial Leader 
Trump didn't just break America's political rules - he revealed them as illusions. This is an outsider's discovery of how an unlikely shaman transformed the world's most powerful nation. 
Trump follows ancient patterns of leadership that modern politics has forgotten. Through raw charisma and intuitive genius, he tapped into psychological forces that reshaped America's soul. This analysis reveals why millions found his message irresistible—and why his critics still don't understand what hit them. 
Written by a non-American observer free from Washington's tribal warfare, this work examines how the deeply flawed Trump could be the very hero America needs in its darkest hour. 
Note: This book offers a clear-eyed view of both his strengths and limitations but is ultimately strangely pro-Trump.
