[Correction in progress]
A la Poursuite du Vide
par John Perry BarlowLe bonheur est l’absence de recherche du bonheur – Chuang-Tzu (350 B.C.)
Chuang-Tzu avait raison. Rien de plus à dire. Mais la nature humaine est ainsi faite: plus nous énonçons la vérité de façon succincte, plus nous avons tendance à l’ignorer. Donc, malgré la complétude de cette homélie, je développerai, en espérant que mon livre pourra insinuer dans votre approche globale ce que la brièveté de Chuang-Tzu n’a pas pu faire.
