About this listen

Johan Huizinga’s definition of “play” reminds me of Octavio Paz’s definition of “eroticism” – that it exists for the sake of itself. Which also sounds like something God allegedly said – “I am that I am.” This puts pleasure and play decidedly close to God in my factoring, though, it’s true, I’ve never been too good at maths.
