"I know then that the story is there, buried in what I call
my magma. It’s absolute chaos but the novel is in there,
lost in a mass of dead elements, superfluous scenes
that will disappear or scenes that are repeated several
times from different perspectives, with different characters.
It’s very chaotic and makes sense only to me. But the story
is born under there."

— Mario Vargas Llosa, interviewed in The Paris Review ,
Issue 116, Fall 1990

Vargas Llosa is the author of "Aunt Julia and the Scriptwriter."

Author Clive Cussler, who reportedly died Monday at 88 —

“I detested school,” he told Publishers Weekly  in 1994.
“I was always the kid who was staring out the window.
While the teacher was lecturing on algebra, I was on
the deck of a pirate ship or in an airplane shooting down
the Red Baron.”

“The dialectic is the play that the last instance opens up
between itself and other ‘instances’, but this dialectic is
materialist: it is not played out up in the air, it is played out
in the play opened up by the last instance, which is material.”

From Mosaic Logic, a post of September 3, 2017 —

“Lord Arglay had a suspicion that the Stone would be
purely logical.  Yes, he thought, but what, in that sense,
were the rules of its pure logic?”

—Many Dimensions  (1931), by Charles Williams

The New York Times  promoting paranoia on Jan. 24, 2020 —

"The fruit of that victory was a new economic logic that I call
'surveillance capitalism.' Its success depends upon one-way-mirror
operations engineered for our ignorance and wrapped in a fog of
misdirection, euphemism and mendacity. . . ."

"It’s not surprising that so many of us rushed to follow the bustling
White Rabbit down his tunnel into a promised digital Wonderland
where, like Alice, we fell prey to delusion."
