"Harrison’s assertion that we have to look at this world from the inside toward the outside, and not the reverse, is a convenient justifier of such an isolationist saudade, but I’ve always felt that there’s more to be deeply learned from minimalism than from overexertion of the senses. This minimalism doesn’t discount a variety of experiences - rather it streamlines the experiences, cuts to the chase, which is important for someone who can easily get lost in the intensity of so many things. It eases the guilt I feel from entitlement, because it is enough, not too much. It’s a way of refusing to subscribe to it."
