Mirrored Men

Only two types of men look deeply into mirrors:  the fearful and those without fear…or is it the uncertain and the indifferent?

It is only when you truly know a place,
that you can truly say good-bye.

Some may say that This Activity is useless, while others say it is simply illusionary. The truth, however, lies somewhere in between.

One may attempt to study the matter of talent and interest by moving backwards to strip away the layers of acquired imagination.  You turn your investigation in the rearward direction so as to gradually move through the crusts of imagination that have grown up around the original sight, and locate the original seeds of real talent and interest.  (This will not, however, work with politicians and priests.  For if you move such an inquiry back far enough in their case, you fall off a meaningless edge; for they have no original talent or interest.)

Remembering is the struggle against the ephemeral.

Understanding is the embrace of the temporary.
