If there would be a list of writers, thinkers and scientists who are not getting the public recognition they deserve, who would you put on top of that list? Ernest Becker? Pitirim Sorokin? Paul Valery?“My soul is nothing now but the dream dreamt by matter struggling with itself!” ~ Paul Valéry"Becker came to believe that individual character is essentially formed around the process of denying one's own mortality, that this denial is a necessary component of functioning in the world, and that this character-armor masks and obscures genuine self-knowledge. Much of the evil in the world, he believed, was a consequence of this need to deny death"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernest_Becker-J.
