thinkable you:
“I began to realize the dimensions of the thinkable you are phenomenal when I hear the radio and hear Mozart. In these kinds of dimensions there is quite a different relationship to what we call dead, which is strictly a tactile thing. l put the touchable thing in the ground but I can’t put the thinkable you in the ground. I find this all very extraordinary and the fact then that I see you as the touchable you keeps shocking me. . . . This baby thing of touching became all the dominant measure and we insist on doing things in inches and feet. . . . The tactile is a very unreliable thing. It has very, very little meaning.”
