00:00What do you think lovers talk about in their daily four-hour phone calls?
00:05Are they sharing scientific discoveries with each other?
00:08Are they sharing sublime literature with each other?
00:11Great poems?
00:12Are they talking of depths of wisdom?
00:14Are they discussing geopolitics?
00:16Are they discussing neuroscience?
00:18Are they discussing anything of any worth?
00:21No, they are expressing themselves to each other and you know what that's all about.
00:26Let the sound of rubbish being flushed down the commode reverberate.
00:32That's the telephonic conversation.
00:34And they think of it as closeness, as love.
00:36It is not love.
00:37Love is to handle the other and pull him up.
00:41Not bury the other under the weight of your infinite nonsense.
