If only I was as eloquent as Demosthenes, I would have to do no more than repeat a single word three times.

Reason is language - Logos;

I gnaw on this marrowbone and will gnaw myself to death over it. It is still always dark over these depths for me: I am still always awaiting an apocalyptic angel with a key to this abyss.

Previously on August 27, Ray and Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel.
