“The mystical is not how the world is, but that it is.”

“Not how the world is, but that it is, is the mystery.”

“It's not how the world is, but that it is, that is cause for astonishment.”

“There are no subjects in the world. A subject is a limitation of the world.”

“The truly apocalyptic view of the world is that things do not repeat themselves. It isn’t absurd, e.g., to believe that the age of science and technology is the beginning of the end for humanity; that the idea of great progress is delusion, along with the idea that the truth will ultimately be known; that there is nothing good or desirable about scientific knowledge and that mankind, in seeking it, is falling into a trap. It is by no means obvious that this is not how things are.”

“The world is everything that is the case.”

“Logic is not a theory but a reflexion of the world.”
