We always see ourselves as constant, and others as less so, no matter what policy shifts we ourselves may have been guilty of.
“My experience tells me that illusion isn’t some feathery or inconstant thing. It has the vitality, and caloricity too. Being able to produce longing, it’s wholesome food. And longing, as I see it, is the energy that keeps us alive when all other life supports are shut off.”
Jovanka Živanović
