Audiolibro Book of the Damned, The

"ONE of the dam-dest in our whole saturnalia of the accursed

Because it is hopeless to try to shake off an excommunication

only by saying that we're damned by blacker things than ourselves;

and that the damned are those who admit they're of the

damned. Inertia and hypnosis are too strong for us. We say that:

then we go right on admitting we're of the damned. It is only by

being more nearly real that we can sweep away the quasi-things that

oppose us. Of course, as a whole, we have considerable amorphousness,

but we are thinking now of "individual" acceptances. Wideness

is an aspect of Universalness or Realness. If our syntheses disregard

fewer data than do opposing syntheses which are often not

syntheses at all, but mere consideration of some one circumstance

less widely synthetic things fade away before us. Harmony is an

aspect of the Universal, by which we mean Realness. If we approximate

more highly to harmony among the parts of an expression and

to all available circumstances of an occurrence, the self-contradictors

turn hazy. Solidity is an aspect of realness. We pile them up, and

we pile them up, or they pass and pass and pass: things that bulk

large as they march by, supporting and solidifying one another

And still, and for regiments to come, hypnosis and inertia rule.."
