to not leave this world, he thought with a certain ardor. to not have to face the rest. to just think, to just think and write it down.
man raises houses to look at rather than to live in. because everything follows the path of inspiration. determinism isn’t a determinism of ends, but a narrow determinism of causes. playing, inventing following the ant to the anthill, mixing water with lime to see the result, this is what you do when you are little and when you are big. it is a mistake to think we have arrived at a high degree of pragmatism and materialism. in fact pragmatism —a plan aimed at a real given end —would be comprehension, stability, happiness, the biggest victory of adaptation that man could achieve. however doing things “so that” strikes me, faced with reality, as a degree of perfection impossible to expect of man. his entire body of work begins “because.” curiosity, fancy, imagination —these are what have shaped the modern world. following inspiration, he mixed ingredients, created combinations. his tragedy: to have to nourish himself with them. he trusted that he could imagine in one life and exist in another, separate one.
