The effect of the post-Enlightenment project for human society is that all human activity is absorbed into labor. It becomes an unending cycle of production for the sake of consumption. The modern concept of "built-in obsolescence" makes this clear. The cycle of production and consumption has to be kept going, and the work of the artist or craftsman who aims to create something enduring becomes marginal to the economic order.

Popper and Nabokov are very different people in some ways - and I'm ready to devote large chunks of my life to both of them.

That quest to discover more in any direction is what I think drives me, and what drives humans, when they're doing the most interesting things.
