>You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet, still and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet. - Kafka

One seldom experiences more than a facet of a Phenomenon. Identifying with it at the expense of adjacent facets, never mind at the expense of its opposing pole, he becomes bogged down in his own petty possessiveness and eagerness to assume himself wise, being consumed by that which he sought to consume. Rather than presenting the Phenomenon to him towards knowing, experience presents him to the Phenomenon towards unknowing. Hence the misery of extraversion.
