The Formula for Overthrowing the World
The tactic is playful, since play is an essential dimension of revolution. Since alienation prevails in the everyday life of individuals, it is in everyday life that the revolution must take shape, because otherwise the revolution is not a force of life, but of death. The antithesis of commodified reification is found in the gratuitousness of play, which proceeds without consideration of the profit requirements of the world of the economy. Whatever is gained in the game of life is just so much time wasted in a society in which time is only worth the money that it allows one to accumulate or spend; and labor time is a succession of instants that individuals lose forever.

In the Moon Beamy Air
"The right way to wholeness is made up, unfortunately, of fateful detours and wrong turnings. It is a via longissima, not straight but snakelike, a path that unites the opposites in the manner of the guiding caduceus, a path whose labyrinthine twists and turns are not lacking in terror.”
Psychology and Alchemy - Carl Jung
Sailing through the Labyrinth
"Why linger you so, the wild labyrinth strolling?
Why breathless, unable your bliss to declare?
Ah! you list to the nightingale’s tender condoling,
Responsive to sylphs, in the moon beamy air."
To Some Ladies - John Keats
Dennis had no trouble ignoring the sylphs.
Lacking in terror
Then it was on to the therapist's couch.
"Illusions commend themselves to us because they save us pain and allow us to enjoy pleasure instead. We must therefore accept it without complaint when they sometimes collide with a bit of reality against which they are dashed to pieces."
Sigmund Freud
Doctor Boardnroom, here with his most difficult patient
"Show me a sane man and I will cure him for you."
