Heraclitus vs. History
One can’t cross a given river
twice. But that’s not only due to
rivers changing but because one
drops off skin cells, viruses each
instant and picks up replacements.
Minds are similar. They seize on
new ideas, visions, fancies
blink by blink and never lose them
but by process of forgetting
which no-one can will to happen.
Having crossed a river once you
always will have crossed that river.
