my reality: stop right now, thank you very much.

stop right now, thank you very much.

"and i don't pretend to know what you know
now please don't pretend to know what's on my mind
if we already knew everything that everybody knows
then we would have nothing to learn tonight
and we would have nothing to show tonight
oh, but everybody thinks that everybody knows
about everybody else, nobody knows
anything about themselves
'cos they're all worried about everybody else."

"the greatest hazard of all, losing the self, can occur very quietly in the world, as if it were nothing at all. no other loss can occur so quietly; any other loss - an arm, a leg, five dollars, a wife, etc. - is sure to be noticed.

thus possibility seems greater and greater to the self; more and more it becomes possible because nothing becomes actual. eventually everything seems possible, but this is exactly the point at which the abyss swallows up the self. it takes time for each little possibility to become an actuality. eventually, however, the time that should be used for actuality grows shorter and shorter; everything becomes more and more momentary. possibility becomes more and more intensive - but in the sense of possibility, not in the sense of actuality, for the intensive in the sense of actuality means to actualize some of what is possible. the instant something appears to be possible, a new possibility appears, and finally these phantasmagoria follow one another in such rapid succession that it seems as if everything were possible, and this is exactly the final moment, the point at which the individual himself becomes a mirage."
