A good rotation. A rotation I define as the experiencing of the new be — Walker Percy

"Hatred strikes me as one of the few signs of life remaining in the world. This is another thing about the world which is upsidedown: all the friendly and likable people seem dead to me; only the haters seem alive. (2.9)."

"A repetition is the re-enactment of past experience toward the end of isolating the time segment which has lapsed in order that it, the lapsed time, can be savored of itself and without the usual adulteration of events that clog time like peanuts in brittle."

"The search is what anyone would undertake if he were not sunk in the everydayness of his own life."

"Christians talk about the horror of sin, but they have overlooked something. They keep talking as if everyone were a great sinner, when the truth is that nowadays one is hardly up to it. There is very little sin in the depths of the malaise. The highest moment of a malaisians life can be the moment when he manages to sin like a proper human (Look at us, Binx — my vagabond friends as good as cried out to me — were sinning! Were succeeding! Were human after all!)."

"Not a single thing do I remember from the first trip but this: the sense of the place, the savor of the genie-soul of the place which every place has or else is not a place...there it is as big as life, the genie-soul of the place which, wherever you go, you must meet and master first thing or be met and mastered. (4.3)."

"I had discovered that a person does not have to be this or be that or be anything, not even oneself. One is free. (2.12)."
