Multiples

Father, stag and sage; the goal is to achieve all three.

I just got accused of ‘speaking like a true academic’. It was meant as a criticism.

My adversary seems not to grasp that hanging onto all the modes of wisdom that one has learned is more effective than dropping one when another is learned.

In this case the supposed preferred outcome would be to drop all vestiges of academic intellectualism in favor of random spiritualism.

People sometimes amaze me at the sheer stupid simplicity of their unquestioned assumptions.
