The victory was won back then


I creep along at a snail's pace 
And tell myself this is no race 
And day by day face truth again 
The victory was won back then

The following drawn from my reading in and around Charles Sanders Peirce



The following drawn from my reading in and around Charles Sanders Peirce. 

Logic does not depend upon subjective feeling
All reasoning refers to a general method
Truth lies in fact not inconceivability
Metaphysics should be founded on logic not the other way around
"All the psychology in the world will leave the logical problem just where it was"
Logic deals with how we ought to think not how we think
Logic is not concerned with how we know reality but what is clearly real
Mutations and changes of language have nothing to do with logic 
The language of logic is universal and transcends particular languages
Logic leads a process by which knowledge advances
Initial assumptions power the most persuasive logic 
The history of science can contribute much in the way of evidence
Looks aka experience can deceive
There is a distinction between logical principles and other facts

"Sto Perigiali" One of the Surpassingly Best Tunes Theodorakis Has Written

A Setting for a Poem "Denial" Beloved by the Greek People by the Nobel Prize Winning Poet Giorgos Seferis

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhk0ckaCxDI
The remarkable video at the link above is of a performance of "Sto perigiali" Mario Frangoulis and Mikis Theodorakis in 2001.

Frangoulis and Theodorakis are joined by musicians, including two bouzouki players, and a very large audience that is completely familiar with the words. The audience joins in at Frangoulis' prompt.

This is my very favorite Theodorakis melody. Those who know Theodorakis only for his "Zorba" music are in for a treat.

I have never gotten the tune out of my mind.

Later, when Irene joined our group to form a travelling company performing "New Rain", I learned to pick out a …
