Illusion

Edward: And what is the use of all your analysis
              If I am to remain always lost in the dark?

Unidentified Guest: There is certainly no purpose
                                in remaining in the dark
                                Except long enough to clear from the mind
                                The illusion of having ever been in the light.

'The Cocktail Party', T.S.Eliot

Notebook: 1986-87
