“Freedom is a difficult burden to bear in an absurd world.”
Eugene Webb, The Plays of Samuel Beckett

“the present book’s inquiry into the elements of an adequate philosophy of consciousness leads to the conclusion that consciousness can be understood as the experience of performing structured combinations of intentional operations that relate the elements of experience to one another in intelligible patterns and that also relate the subjective or “tacit” dimension of consciousness to an objective dimension or pole.”
Eugene Webb, Philosophers of Consciousness: Polanyi, Lonergan, Voegelin, Ricoeur, Girard, Kierkegaard
