Our sense of justice depends on our sense of time. Justice is a phenomenon only of consciousness, because time spread out in a spatial succession is its very essence. And this is possible only in a spatial metaphor of time.

We have said that consciousness is an operation rather than a thing, a repository, or a function. It operates by way of analogy, by way of constructing an analog space with an analog 'I' that can observe that space, and move metaphorically in it. It operates on any reactivity, excerpts relevant aspects, narratizes and conciliates them together in a metaphorical space where such meanings can be manipulated like things in space.

Every god is a jealous god after the breakdown of the bicameral mind.

We know to much to command ourselves very far.

Idolatry is still a socially cohesive force - its original function.

History does not move by leaps into unrelated novelty, but rather by the selective emphasis of aspects of its own immediate past.

Consciousness is always open to many possibilities because it involves play. It is always an adventure.
