"Det var modern som i sonen* ingöt avsky för tyranner och krigarkungar; om Napoleon sade fru Fryxell, enligt vad han själv berättar: "Jag önskar att han till straff för sitt slaktande finge ligga i barnsäng för hvar och en menniska, som för hans skull blifvit ihjälskjuten" (A. Fryxell: Min historias historia)"
ur Vilhelm Mobergs, Min Svenska historia - Berättad för folket

*Anders Fryxell, som enligt Moberg i sitt historieskrivande: "rensade ut fyra dominerande drag ur äldre svensk-nationell historieskrivning: 1. Ultrarojalismen. 2. Ultrapatriotismen. 3. Ultraheroismen. 4. Den historiska kasuistiken.

listening to R.A.T.M "fist full of steal" which starts with:

This would I guess equal to a sort of selfinflicted extreme striated space of self cenorship - as then, would the total absence of sound(s) equal the smooth space*** - a condition without messurments - an absolute zero.

*where and when ever it's peaceful there is also allways sounds, just maybe not the usual ones
**In the introduction to the book Silence.,
***Gilles Deleuze theory about organization of space, to me very similar to 'bodies without organs'
