Philospher Zero:

“Reality can’t lie. A thing either is, or it is not. And whatever it is, unless it is sentient and deceptive, cannot be hidden from observation. Reality does not bend, nor does it (or can it) use symbolic manipulation to deceive.

Perceptions, however, can deceive. The nature of human perceptual frameworks and mechanisms are limited, flawed, and undefined. By their very nature, they are subjective and subject to incorrect and invalid conclusion, not to mention revision by even more subjective and invalid opinions.”

This is going to be the cornerstone of my critical analysis of Jane Austen’s Emma. Fuck, I hate this book.
