Deeper

“But misery still delights to trace
Its ‘semblance in another’s case.

No voice divine the storm allay’d,
No light propitious shone;
When, snatch’d from all effectual aid,
We perish’d, each alone:
But I beneath a rougher sea,
And whelm’d in deeper gulphs than he.”
—William Cowper (1731–1800)

“The deeper the experience of an absence of meaning—in other words, of absurdity—the more energetically meaning is sought.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
