  Is it possible to renew the mind? - 24 May 1967 
  • When the mind is living through imagination and thought, it is incapable of 
  living in the complete fullness of the present. 
  • Thought has created time, not chronological time but psychological time. That 
  is, ‘I will be,’ ‘I should be.’ 
  • Is it possible for the brain to be quiet, to give an interval between the old and 
  the new? This interval is the timeless nature in which thought cannot possibly 
  enter. 
  • That which has continuity is repetitive, which is time. It’s only when time 
  comes to an end there is something new taking place. 
  • To die every day to every problem, every pleasure, and not carry over any 
  problem at all; so the mind remains tremendously attentive, active, clear. 
  • Since love is not desire or pleasure, how does one come upon it? 
  • Q: Is the feeling of responsibility a part of the order and discipline you were 
  talking about? 
  • Q: Why don’t people get angry with what you are saying?

  Ecce Homo

  Ecce Homo is a philosophical autobiography written by Friedrich Nietzsche towards the end of his life. In this work, Nietzsche reflects on his life, his philosophical views, and his legacy. The title, which means "behold the man" in Latin, is taken from Pontius Pilate's words when he presents Jesus to the crowd before his crucifixion. Nietzsche uses this phrase to present himself as a kind of messiah of a new philosophy, proclaiming the birth of a new era of thought. Ecce Homo is a complex and challenging work that has been interpreted in many different ways. Some readers see it as a celebration of Nietzsche's life and ideas, while others view it as a cautionary tale about the dangers of radical individualism. Regardless of how it is interpreted, however, Ecce Homo remains an important and influential work in the history of philosophy. Read in English, unabridged.

  Written during a genocide, After Savagery reveals the ethical bankruptcy of "Western philosophy" and how it undergirds the erasure of the colonized. 
  The death toll in Gaza continues to rise―a cold, lifeless number representing entire communities crushed under the weight of settler colonialism.What remains of the theories we use to understand our world? With lyrical and lucid fury, Hamid Dabashi exposes the racist roots of Western philosophy, demanding that listeners overcome its pernicious phantom of relevance. Rather than perceiving "the West" as giving carte blanche to Israel, Dabashi insists that Israel must be understood as its quintessence.If Israel is the West and the West is Israel, then Palestine is the world and the world is Palestine. Holding to glimmers from revolutionary works of literature and film, Dabashi argues, in grief and love, that the wretched of the earth need poetry after barbarism—and that Palestine is the site of a liberated imagination.
