“This is what I thought: for the most banal even to become an adventure, you must (and this is enough) begin to recount it. This is what fools people: a man is always a teller of tales, he sees everything that happens to him through them; and he tries to live his own life as if he were telling a story. But you have to choose: live or tell.”

-Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea, 1938.

But first the notion that man has a body distinct from his soul is to be expunged; this I shall do by printing in the infernal method by corrosives, which in Hell are salutary and medicinal, melting apparent surfaces away, and displaying the infinite which was hid. If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern.

-William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, 1790.

Update/Correction: I misstated the executive order number (it's 9066 not 9006) and stated that Korematsu v. United States still technically had legal precedence - in fact it lost legal precedence in 2018 with Trump v. Hawaii. Links below.
