«How does life become totally painful? By total retreat. Total noninspection becomes total pain.[?]But existence is basically composed of a very few truths onto which have hung a great many artificialities and which man has adorned with enormous numbers of lies.

Now one of the things you can do with man is to get him to look up and find out that he can look through the shadows and look at the shadows and find out what they are.»
