“I'm a shy, nervous person, and I don't like teaching with "terms." I didn't teach them, like, "This is first person, this is second person, this is foreshadowing," or whatever, so no one probably felt like they were learning anything. But I feel like teaching in that way reduces the concept to a term.” WayFeelsFirstsPersonsFeltTermTeachTeachingConceptsNervousShyFirst PersonForeshadowing Author:Tao Lin
“There was an enjoyment to being alive, he felt, that because of an underlying meaninglessness–like how a person alone for too long cannot feel comfortable when with others; cannot neglect that underlying the feeling of belongingness is the certainty, really, of loneliness, and nothingness, and so experiences life in that hurried, worthless way one experiences a mistake–he could no longer get at.” WayFeelsPersonsLongFeelingsFeltMistakeAliveLonelinessComfortableCertaintyEnjoymentNeglectNothingnessWorthlessMeaninglessness Author:Tao Lin
“I know,' said Erin, and described how she'd lately felt depressed in a new and scary way, which Paul also had felt lately and described as a sadness-based fear, immune to tone and interpretation, as if not meant for humans - more visceral than sadness, but unlike fear because it decreased heart rate and impaired the senses, causing everything to seem 'darker.” IfsKnowsWayHumansHeartSaidSeemsFeltSadnessRateScarySensesToneInterpretationImmuneDecreaseVisceralErinHeart Rate Book:Taipei Source: Taipei
“He sometimes felt that life was something that had already risen, and all of this, the Jackson Pollack of spring, summer, and fall, the vague refrigeration and tinfoiled sky of wintertime, was just a falling, really, originward, in a kind of correction, as if by spritual gravity, towards the wiser consciousness--or consciousnessless, maybe; could gravity trick itself like that?--of death. It was a kind of movement both very slow and very fast; there was both too much and not enough time to think.” IfsThinkingKindSometimesEnoughFallFeltConsciousnessToo MuchSkyMovementSummerSpringTricksGravityWiserVagueEnough TimeRisenCorrectionsTime To ThinkWintertimeNot Enough TimeSpring Summer Book:Eeeee Eee Eeee: A Novel Source: Eeeee Eee Eeee: A Novel
