Strange about learning; the farther I go the more I see that I never knew even existed. A short while ago I foolishly thought I could learn everything – all the knowledge in the world. Now I hope only to be able to know of its existence, and to understand one grain of it. Is there time?

I’m like a man who’s been half-asleep all his life, trying to find out what he was like before he woke up.
