[Living] Meaning is in the play, or interplay, of light. As in
schizophrenia, all things lose their boundaries, become iridescent with
many-colored significances. No thing, but an iridescence, a rainbow effect.
[...]
[Living] Meaning is a continuous creation, out of nothing and returning to
nothingness. If it is not evanescent it is not alive. Everything is
symbolic, is transitory; is unstable. The consolidation of meaning makes
idols; established meanings have returned to stone.
[Living] Meaning is not in things but in between; in the iridescence, the
interplay; in the interconnections; at the intersections, at the crossroads.
N.O.Brown, _Love's Body_ p.257 UC Press, 1990
