Bach was so mathematical and i liked this idea that you could have one instrument going, 'one, two, three, four', and then you have another instrument going, [double time] 'one, two, three four', and another instrument going, [doubled again] 'one, two, three, four, one, two, three, four', so you could add twos and fours and eighths, and that happens a lot in bach.

I nodded. i liked augustus waters. i really, really, really liked him. i liked the way his story ended with someone else. i liked his voice. i liked that he took existentially fraught free throws. i liked that he was a tenured professor in the department of slightly crooked smiles with a dual appointment in the department of having a voice that made my skin feel more like skin. and i liked that he had two names. i’ve always liked people with two names, because you get to make up your mind what you call them: gus or augustus? me, i was always just hazel, univalent hazel.

Now, everybody knows the basic erogenous zones. you got one, two, three, four, five, six, and seven. ... ok, now most guys will hit one, two, three and then go to seven and set up camp. ... you want to hit 'em all and you wanna mix 'em up. you gotta keep 'em on their toes. ... you could start out with a little one. a two. a one, two, three. a three. a five. a four. a three, two. two. a two, four, six. two, four, six. four. two. two. four, seven! five, seven! six, seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven! seven!

From the three, you then use one to make eight ones. you add those ones to the three, and you get one-three base eight, or, in other words, in base ten you have eleven, and you take away seven. and seven from eleven is four. now go back to the sixty-fours, you're left with two.

Strip back the beliefs pasted on by governesses, schools, and states, you find indelible truths at one's core. rome'll decline and fall again, cortés'll lay tenochtitlán to waste again, and later, ewing will sail again, adrian'll be blown to pieces again, you and i'll sleep under the corsican stars again, i'll come to bruges again, fall in and out of love with eva again, you'll read this letter again, the sun'll grow cold again. nietzsche's gramophone record. when it ends, the old one plays it again, for an eternity of eternities.

One might think this means that imaginary numbers are just a mathematical game having nothing to do with the real world. from the viewpoint of positivist philosophy, however, one cannot determine what is real. all one can do is find which mathematical models describe the universe we live in. it turns out that a mathematical model involving imaginary time predicts not only effects we have already observed but also effects we have not been able to measure yet nevertheless believe in for other reasons. so what is real and what is imaginary? is the distinction just in our minds?
