Perception, awareness, experience, all this time-bound existence has a bad conscience, as if it cannot entirely suppress the insufficiency of its answer, its response, to simple being. Experience is the time-hallowed attempt to solve being. It is one thing when it believes in its project, quite another when it dawns upon it that it is only rearranging the tokens of the problem. Insufficiency is what motivates the striving inseparable from existence - its productions are dazzling, but they fail to respond to the original question.
