“If you look straight up, there’s a sky, and if you glance right in front of you, the face of an average person—though we don’t speak of average days and nights or an average nature. But isn’t the average actually what is solidest and best? I have no use for days or weeks of genius, or an extraordinary Lord God.”
— Robert Walser, Berlin Stories, trans. Susan Bernofsky (via differenceetrepetition)
