“...by choosing two aspects of a subject that appear to be in opposition, each can be examined in light of the other in order to better illuminate the entire subject, as long as one doesn't mistake the system for reality.”
“What if reality (as perceived) were simply an extension of the self? Wouldn't that color the way each individual experiences the world?”
“Every memory no matter how remote its subject takes place "now " at the moment it's called up in the mind. The more something is recalled the more the brain has a chance to refine the original experience because every memory is a re-creation not a playback.”
“To live (as I understand it) is to exist within a conception of time.But to remember is to vacate the very notion of time.Every memory, no matter how remote its subject, takes place 'Now,' at the moment it's called to the mind.The more something is recalled, the more the brain has a chance to refine the original experience.Because every memory is a re-creation, not a playback.”

“There are just two things you need to fix here: the interior and the exterior.”
“But why must choices always lie along a linear spectrum with two poles instead of say among a sphere of possibilities”
