Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.” ― Groucho Marx Ultimately, nobody can get more out of things, including books, than he already knows. For what one lacks access to from experience one will have no ear. Now let us imagine an extreme case: that a book speaks of nothing but events that lie altogether beyond the possibility of any frequent or even rare experience -- that it is the first language for a new series of experiences. In that case, simply nothing will be heard, but there will be the acoustic illusion that where nothing is heard, nothing is there. ~ Page 717 Excerpt: ‘Ecce Homo” ~ Nietzsche

And a poem........ I am not a person I am a succession of persons Held together by memory. When the string breaks, The beads are scattered. "Waka" - Lindley Williams Hubbel
