Richard Gavin

“THINGS ARE WHAT THEY ARE, BUT NOTHING IS REAL UNTIL KING HIM UTTERS ITS NAME. WE KNOW A CHAIR IS A CHAIR BECAUSE EVERYTIME WE SEE ONE, KING HIM SAYS THE WORD “CHAIR” IN OUR EAR. OUR PHYSICS ARE HIS FAIRY-TALES. [SEE MATHEMATICS OF MAKE-BELIEVE.] WHAT MOST CALL THOUGHTS ARE REALLY JUST KING HIM TALKING. KING HIM IS ALWAYS TALKING. HIS NEVERENDING LECTURE IS WHAT PEOPLE CALL “KNOWLEDGE.”
