    When was the last time you dressed for joy? What we wear has a greater impact on us than we think.

    1302 || ethical contradictions

    How do we make ethical decisions? Are there "universal moral truths"? What can we do if a situation is not morally "black and white"? There are countless factors that apply to every ethical question. Context is crucial. I think, in general, we're all bound to be a little wrong and a little right - and understanding all of the factors that go into that is the clearest way to ensure we're not overwhelmed with that responsibility.

    1298 || the right to swing your fist

    "your right to swing your fist ends where my nose begins" "The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance, not as a moral standard, but as a social contract. If someone does not abide by the terms of the contract, then they are not covered by it. In other words: The intolerant are not following the rules of the social contract of mutual tolerance. Since they have broken the terms of the contract, they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intolerance should NOT be tolerated." - Tolerance is Not a Moral Precept by Yonatan Zunger SOURCE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance#:~:text=The%20paradox%20of%20tolerance%20is,the%20very%20principle%20of%20tolerance.
