The one who merely flees is not yet free. In fleeing he is still conditioned by that from which he flees.
― Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
We can say any truth and any falsehood. We can affirm and negate in the same breath. We can construe material impossibility at will; in the Hegelian dialectic man ‘falls up’. Thus language itself possesses and is possessed by the dynamics of fiction. To speak, either to oneself or to another, is in the most naked, rigorous sense of that unfathomable beauty, to invent, and to reinvent being and the world.
— George Steiner, Real Presences
What was passed is present, what will be future is past, and what can never be might return time and time again.
— André Aciman
