"Getting up, brushing of hair, toasting of bread, sun shooting up the sky, taking keys out of your pocket to open doors. Seasons. In the benign repetition of daily acts an invisible net is cast, holding people up, protecting them. Because the things being repeated--'non-exchangeable and non-substitutable singularities' so said Deleuze--are never the same. That imperceptible difference, same damn thing, same blessed thing, is what rescues it...Time as a straight line is a monstrosity."
