Though Matt said, “I began to think ‘essence’ was a dirty word last semester,”
Liszt feels like fitting music for Part Four. Beautiful even if you don’t believe in a transcendental plane. (Don’t be quick to discount it altogether…)

“What does deep midnight have to say?
‘From Sleep, from sleep–
from deepest dream I made my way
The world is deep,
And deeper than the grasp of day.
Deep is pain-
Joy- deeper still than misery:
Yet all joy wants eternity,
wants deep, deep eternity.’ ” (Z, 264)

Last class tomorrow. Sad day.
I’ll be in the SLC early to help set up amplifiers, projectors, drum kits etc.

There will be pizza.

Enjoy it! And sleep.
