“The social fabric is deadening – too heavy. We are not born into it – we are born into the world that really is. What is, is the world in all its mystery – nothing and something in perfect whirling paradox and balance, generating emptiness and everything everywhere always forever. Sink and swim. Per the poet Rilke, 'Everything wants to float'.”
