    Consciousness and causality can be thought of as illusions, and we drift within the infinite sea of the collective unconscious. Although logic appears to produce unique answers, it doesn't, and when we combine our logic and emotions we achieve the lowest possible energy state of the complete system. Like a sleeping baby or a car engine idling.

    It means there are countless shortcuts to both logic and causality, that help to ensure the good guys win more often. Knowing them, could save the entire next generation.

    I had a buddy that used to like to remind people "you bought the ticket, you take the ride" or something like that. Some of the inflection in that is lost when it's in type, but he mean that you had bitten off more than you could chew by doing something; whatever it was you did. :)
