| A (if the The) Great American Novel all right. Surprisingly (to me) Romantic, lyrical. Surpassingly fabulous concluding sentence: “So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.” | |
“Nothingness is everything to philosophers. If you wonder what everything is, then you also wonder what nothing is. The question is whether you can talk about it and still make sense.
