Philosophy, in its longing to rationalize, formalize, define, delimit, to terminate enigma and uncertainty, to co-operate wholeheartedly with the police, is nihilistic in the ultimate sense that it strives for the immobile perfection of death. But creativity cannot be brought to an end that is compatible with power, for unless life is extinguished, control must inevitably break down. We possess art lest we perish of the truth.
Kaworu Nagisa
Are you afraid of other people? I know that by keeping others at a distance, you avoid a betrayal of your trust, but, while you may not be hurt that way, you mustn't forget that you must endure the loneliness.
