NON-LINEAR STATE No. 051: FEVERS AND UNAPPOINTED BOUNDARIES

.

“When I think about it now, I can’t help but being astonished that I always managed to completely return from the world of these fevers and was able to adjust to that social existence where everybody wanted to be assured that they were among familiar objects and people, where they all conspired to remain in the realm of the intelligible. If you looked forward to something, it either came or it didn’t come, there was no third possibility. There were things that were sad, once and for all, and there were pleasant things, and a great number of incidental ones. And if a joy was arranged for you, it was in fact a joy, and you had to behave accordingly. All this was basically very simple, and once got the knack of it, it took care of itself. For everything entered into these appointed boundaries…”

.-Rainer María Rilke-
