'For the person or persons that hold dominion, can no more combine with the keeping up of majesty the running with harlots drunk or naked about the streets, or the performances of a stage player, or the open violation or contempt of laws passed by themselves than they can combine existence with non-existence'.

- Benedict de Spinoza. Political Treatise. 1677.

on certainty 226


226. Can I give the supposition that I have ever been on the moon any serious consideration at all?



it’s not about giving serious consideration –

it’s about use

do you have a use for the proposition?

if you do –

you will use it –

if not –

you won’t
