It's striking how persuasive such terminology as 'private/public', 'inner/outer', 'subjective/objective', 'first person perspective/third person perspective', are. But the appearance of sense is an illusion. Realizing that it _is_ an illusion requires carefully examining the use of these terms within the language.

One of my favorite quotes from Merleau-Ponty is "Nothing determines me from outside, not because nothing acts upon me, but, on the contrary, because I am from the start outside myself and open to the world."

I would never have wanted to be a human being. Never. It's cost me too godd@mn much.
