Do you ever think it’s all been said before – that everything’s been said before? That we can’t say a single new thing? All the words have already been prepared … All our scripts have been written. All the things lovers have said. And we only get to quote …
Do you worry that we’ll never get to the point? That we’ll never talk about what really concerns us – what’s really important? Do you ever think that everything we say just gets in the way? That all the stuff we’re saying echoes with something much more important? That what’s important is the echoing. What echoes through what we say?
Where does all this talk lead? Where does it take us? Nowhere. The same place as we were before.
But everything’s a little bit different.
No, everything’s even more the same …
Listen to me. I used to be an organisational manager. What am I now: a philosopher?
Maybe.
We’re so meta. Talking about his stuff. Instead of just … romancing. Fucking, or whatever.
Talking’s part of it.
