      90. What postrat philosophy would need to perform this feat of separation is something akin to Wittgenstein's Tractatus, a critical work sufficient and deep enough to create a new frame for thought that "opens up" an entirely new world of knowledge.

      “Death is not an event in life: we do not live to experience death. If we take eternity to mean not infinite temporal duration but timelessness, then eternal life belongs to those who live in the present. Our life has no end in the way in which our visual field has no limits.”
