her up like death, discordant, without logical and
beautiful conclusion. Her teeth break off at the edges.
She would speak.”

“I’m not afraid of facts, I welcome facts but a congeries of facts is not equivalent to an idea. This is the essential fallacy of the so-called “scientific” mind. People who mistake facts for ideas are incomplete thinkers; they are gossips.”
