“In the psychological experience of nothingness, it is by the consideration of what will happen in two thousand years that our own nothingness truly takes on meaning.”
-- Camus
Most of us, of course, do not need to consider so far into the future as 2,000 years to taste the bitter ashes of our nothingness and insignificance. Indeed, some of us do not even have to contemplate our death at all. We can experience it in full right now in the flesh. It's a strange feeling, kind of ghostly and floating, as of a mind that is barely held down by our loathsome carcass, a mind that is itself dimming and fading.
