Status is the most important asset anyone can obtain but only at the behest of society; you cannot confer status on yourself, no matter what you do.
Conferring status is the single most powerful thing media can perform, except for its ability to take status away.
Society’s ultimate threat to any of its members is to reduce their status.
Threatening someone’s status gives you control over them.
Achievement is always trumped by status.
The power of wealth & fame actually comes from the status those things bring.
Sex is the primal imperative and status indulges the opportunity for more of it.

Re: Status
I know this isn't the right thread, but how was your trip to Easter Island Martin? My sister went there once, and she brought me back a miniature head statue. Kind of a surreal place from what I hear and definitely on my places to go list before I die. Did you enjoy yourself?Martin Hash wrote: ↑Sat Dec 29, 2018 8:10 amStatus is the most important asset anyone can obtain but only at the behest of society; you cannot confer status on yourself, no matter what you do.
