Startled to see signs of Donald Trump as I read Steve Pressfield's creativity-nurturing slim volume, The War of Art. Again & again, DJT came to mind as I read about the qualities of resistance.
"Resistance is like the Alien or the Terminator or the shark in Jaws. It cannot be reasoned with. It understands nothing but power. ... Resistance is implacable, intractable, indefatigable. Reduce it to a single cell and that cell will continue to attack. This is Resistance's nature. It is all it knows."
"Resistance is not out to get you personally. It doesn't know who you are and doesn't care. Resistance is a force of nature. It acts objectively. ~ Though it feels malevolent, Resistance in fact operates with the indifference of rain and transits the heavens by the same laws as the stars. When we marshal our forces to combat Resistance, we must remember this."
"Resistance has no strength of its own. Every ounce of juice it possesses comes from us. We feed it with power..."
What does it mean? Haven't a clue. But sure sounds a lot like Donald John Trump.
