Nefarious Libertine User ID: 70767101 ![]() 12/01/2015 02:27 AM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ![]() We do not learn from history because our studies are brief and prejudiced. In a surprising manner, 250 years emerges as the average length of national greatness. This average has not varied for 3,000years. The stages of the rise and fall of great nations seem to be: The Age of Pioneers , The Age of Conquests ,The Age of Commerce ,The Age of Affluence ,The Age of Intellect ,The Age of Decadence. Decadence is marked by: Defensiveness, Pessimism, Materialism,Frivolity An influx of foreigners The Welfare State A weakening of religion. Decadence is due to: Too long a period of wealth and power, Selfishness Love of money ,The loss of a sense of duty. The life histories of great states are amazingly similar, and are due to internal factors. Their falls are diverse, because they are largely the result of external causes. - Sir John Glubb The Fate of Empires We are at the end of the Age of Decadence heading into COLLAPSE |
Rubatosis User ID: 70053572 ![]() 12/01/2015 02:27 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Not even a little bit. That's where I started before I found GLP. People who are intimidated by you talk bad about you with hopes that others won't find you so appealing. Rubatosis - n. the unsettling awareness of your own heartbeat, whose tenuous muscular throbbing feels less like a metronome than a nervous ditty your heart is tapping to itself, the kind that people compulsively hum or sing while walking in complete darkness, as if to casually remind the outside world, I’m here, I’m here, I’m here. The jealous are troublesome to others, but a torment to themselves. ~ William Penn I understood myself only after I destroyed myself. And only in the process of fixing myself, did I know who I truly was. Revenge is not in my plans. You'll fuck yourself on your own. |
