perec-how-to-live

It is on a day like this one,

a little later a little earlier

that you discover without surprise

that something is wrong

that you don’t know how to live

and you will never know

Thought:

“The abject has only one quality of the object — that of being opposed to I. If the object, however, through its opposition, settles me within the fragile texture of a desire for meaning, which, as a matter of fact, makes me ceaselessly and infinitely homologous to it, what is abject, on the contrary, the jettisoned object, is radically excluded and draws me toward the place where meaning collapses.”
