I am nothing and nowhere. I am raw against the wind. Nature’s presence escapes me.

“The day unravels what the night has woven. When we awake each morning, we hold in our hands, usually weakly and loosely, but a few fringes of the tapestry of a lived life, as loomed for us by forgetting. However, with our purposeful activity and, even more, our purposive remembering each day unravels the web and the ornaments of forgetting.”

“It is as if [Derrida] is saying, or showing us, that one way in which to disrupt systems of thought that have totalitarian pretensions is to pray. Prayer … is the most intensely personal and private experience, and yet it has a subversive public power. It contests the limits we draw around the world, and the modern desire to expose the innermost recesses of the self to a speculative gaze, surveillance and control.”

msodradek:

The worst thing is, not only do they not believe in the Zone, no one even needs it. A devastating possibility: the most wonderful place, the most wonderful thing in the world, and no one even needs it. Effectively people have no need of what they most want, have learned to do without.

—Geoff Dyer, Zona, Vintage Books, 2012, p. 206.
