Republicans have to find a way to talk to a changing America. The key word in the Trump lexicon is ‘again.’ If you’re a 32-year-old Hispanic lawyer or a 27-year-old African-American architect or a 40-year-old white professional woman or a gay couple in Charlotte, North Carolina, you may not think things are perfect now, but there is no mythical ‘again’ you are trying to get back to.
— Ron Brownstein, of The Atlantic
A man who is unconscious of himself acts in a blind, instinctive way and is in addition fooled by all the illusions that arise when he sees everything that he is not conscious of in himself coming to meet him from outside as projections upon his neighbors.
-- Carl Jung, in an essay, The Philosophical Tree, 1945
And if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
-- Mark 3:24
