PHILOSOPHY Just learned virtue is dependent upon wealth

Now I'm sad. Welp, time to start the wagie grind.

Imagine modernity as a kind of transcendental mitosis: one body becoming two: the gladiators of positivism and romanticism raging in the bridge: subjects bound to the World in the mode of its unbinding, or exorcised completely: the quintessential gnostic procedure: for Holderlin, art is this mitosis in reverse: the return or at least flirtation with the divine sleep of matter: poesy is the enemy of pneuma, the totalizing organ: but the scholarship doesn't emphasize this enough: Gnosticism is a rejection of both Judaism /and/ paganism, of both ultra-transcendence and preflexive immanence: the gnostic is properly irreflexive, in defiance of the Sophianic auto-affection = auto-eroticism, which masturbates the sun into being: is not Henry's self-enjoying Life which ā€œcannot cease to adhere to itselfā€ nothing but Schelling's God which is ā€œnever free to be unfreeā€? Is not the eye with which god sees God not the eye with which God sees the dead?
