- koolba 4y agoTechnically you can. You just have to flow back down a different one to the source again. The professional analogy would be quitting a 9-5 to do you own thing, building it up, getting acquired, and then repeating the process.

Which was Heraclitus point (metaphorically): the things we wish to do again ("twice"), we'll always have to do them in a changed environment.
