From the NYT. Sartre’s encounter with mescaline. Apparently this precipitated a period during which crabs followed him around everywhere. Why not? The incarnations of what Castaneda’s don Juan calls mescalito are varied.

Sometimes he’s crabs…

A sharp essay on Isaiah Berlin in The Chronicle of Higher Education. Includes a great quote by the man himself:

“Some of the Great Goods cannot live together. That is a conceptual truth. We are doomed to choose, and every choice may entail an irreparable loss.”

He’s been mentioned within these virtual pages before. Seems the last few years have witnessed a Berlin renaissance of sorts.

By way of 3Quarks Daily.
