When the corner of the absolute new is present, odi et amo, I marvel and am disgusted. Since, so far as when what is utterly new and sharp, such as the beginning of the human talking of what matters most in ancient western Anatolia, science must become larger than it could have guessed based on what came before. Its foul wound opens with the rhetoric of pungent death of the naive belief that what is real is all there is. Thus, love favors the unattainable, and hate attempts to bury it in its schemes of continuity and universality of the things that are. Likewise, granite grows in the beds of the earth by strange processes which did not always exist.
