Published my quotes/notes/excerpts/etc from Rene Girard's "A Theatre of Envy" about the concept of mimetic desire. My intent was to make a digestible version of the book. I AM NOT MAKING MONEY ON THIS.https://medium.com/@jordantsack/a-theatre-of-envy-essentials-4204b308e16b …

This was a difficult one to do as it's a commentary on another book.. so it's 90% direct excerpts from the book. The concept mimetic desire is absolutely worth learning about. Let me know if you like these short book summaries, and I'll keep doing it.

This post contains excerpts, notes, from Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching". This book changed the way that I view the world in many ways. If you don't have time to sit down with the whole book, these excerpts meant the most to me.
