Unfortunately most criticism is by poseurs. They use their comments about someone else's work as a platform on which to strike poses. What they're really saying is: "Look at me! Look at me!"

In all of my universe I have seen no law of nature, unchanging and inexorable. This universe presents only changing relationships which are sometimes seen as laws by short-lived awareness. These fleshy sensoria which we call self are ephemera withering in the blaze of infinity, fleeting aware of temporary conditions which confine our activities and change as our activities change. If you must label the absolute, use its proper name: Temporary.

The singular multiplicity of this universe draws my deepest attention. It is a thing of ultimate beauty. Leto II

A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct.

To determine if you're human. Be silent.

We faced it and did not resist. The storm passed through us and around us. It's gone, but we remain.

That path leads ever down into stagnation.
