The unconscious, which those who always speak of it least possess. - Elias Canetti

There is nothing that man fears more than the touch of the unknown. He wants to see what is reaching towards him, and to be able to recognize or at least classify it. Man always tends to avoid physical contact with anything strange. In the dark, the fear of an unexpected touch can mount to panic. Even clothes give insufficient security: it is easy to tear them and pierce through to the naked, smooth, defenceless flesh of the victim.

Relearn astonishment, stop grasping for knowledge, lose the habit of the past.

Важно е от време на време да се чувстваш засегнат, да се видиш такъв, какъвто те виждат ония, които нищо не разбират.
