>'To endure war is the most difficult subordination of man’s freedom to the law of God,’ the voice had said. ‘Simplicity is submission to the will of God, you cannot escape from Him. And they are simple. They do not talk but act. The spoken word is silver but the unspoken is golden. Man can be master of nothing while he fears death, but he who does not fear it possesses all. If there were no suffering man would not know his limitations, would not know himself. The hardest thing (Pierre went on thinking, or hearing, in his dream) is to be able in your soul to unite the meaning of all. To unite all?’ he asked himself. ‘No, not to unite. Thoughts cannot be united, but to harness all these thoughts together is what we need! Yes, one must harness them, must harness them!’ he repeated to himself with inward rapture, feeling that these words and they alone expressed what he wanted to say and solved the question that tormented him.
>‘Yes, one must harness, it is time to harness.’
>‘Time to harness, time to harness, your Excellency! Your Excellency!’ some voice was repeating. ‘We must harness, it is time to harness …’
>It was the voice of the groom trying to wake him.

Not really related to the reading today lads, but I bought myself a copy of the Cossacks and Hadji Murat today and I'm hoping there'll be a reading group for those after we've finished war and peace, even if it's just a comfy 4 or 5 of us
>>
Hey lads, /comc/ here. Since we are approaching the ends of our respective books, would you guys be interested in consolidating the reading groups? There are only about 3 or so anons in the Monte Cristo group so I'm sure that we could all agree on a book to read

I can't speak for the whole group, but i will surely enter another reading group after this one.
And i post on /comc/ too, though i'm not following the schedule.

>>8949217
Count me out. I just want to smash this one out then get back to my topology textbook and masturbating.

>>8949217
Don't know what i'm gonna read next so it will depend on what is decided on
>>
>>8949217
I'd be interested. It all depends on the book though.

Do you guys know what happened to the short stories group? It seemed pretty alive last time I was here but couldn't find it in the catalog
