   This quote reminds me a sitting in literary theory class in college listening to some Jesuit priest on a tape recorder try to explain the distinction between is-ness and be-ness. I thought my poor, little head was going to explode. 🙂

      Have you read Sartre’s play No Exit? That’s the work of his that made a lasting impression on me.
