troggs vs dostoevsky

[Man] will even jeopardize his gingerbread and deliberately wish for the most ruinous rubbish, the most uneconomical nonsense, simply in order to print his own disastrous, fantastic element onto all this positive good sense ...

I believe this, I will vouch for it because this whole human business seems really only to consist of the fact that man has been continually proving to himself that he's a man and not an organ-stop. He'll prove it, whatever the way; he'll prove it even by becoming a troglodyte ...'
