I feel like what he's saying is similar to the way that the open interval between 0 and 1 has no end when viewed as an open set in real analysis. Which is nice, but the only time I felt that I could advance time by infinitesimally small increments I was on mushrooms.
- keiferski 8y agoI read an explanation of the quote awhile ago, and IIRC the German word he uses is actually better translated as “outside of time” and not “timeless.” In other words, the only way to escape the concept of incremental time is to not think of it as increments at all.
