(from the journal of the american ornithological sciety, 1983)

'Is it possible, i wonder, to study a bird so closely, to observe snd catalogue its peculiarities in such minute detail, that it becomes invisible? Is it possible that while fastidiously calibrating the span of it wings or the length of its tarsus, we somehow lose sight of its poetry? That in our pedestrian descriptions of a marbled or vermiculated plumage we forfeit a glimpse of living canvases, cascades of carefully toned browns and golds that would shame Kandinsky, misty explosions of colour to rival Monet? I b lieve that we do. I blieve that in approaching our subject wit the sensibilities of staticians and dissectionists, we distance ourselves increasingly from the marvelous and spell binding planet of imagination whose gravity drew us to our studies in the first place.'

we can over-analyse n lose sight of the original concept we were looking 4 initially


*meditates*

I ask you, by studying what we know is there are we not taking away the possibilities of what could be there?

Is the power of the mind not scuppered by the art of analysis.

i like these kinds of topics :] I like philosophy actually.

Is a chair actually a chair?

Does Time exist?

Does Time Exist

Time consists of past, present and future. Even though we have records of the past and memories of certain events that have taken place, it can no longer be considered to exist. The future on the other hand has yet to unfold and therefore does not exist either. This leaves the present which is defined as the dividing line between past and future. Surely the ‘here and now’ exists. But although we ‘feel’ that this line is steadily sweeping through time gobbling up the future and converting it into past, it is nevertheless just a line and as such does not have any thickness. The present, therefore, is of zero duration and cannot have a real existence either. If all three components of time do not exist then time itself is an illusion!
