A language possesses utility only insofar as it can construct conventional boundaries. A language of no boundaries is no language at all, and thus the mystic who tries to speak logically and formally of unity consciousness is doomed to sound very paradoxical or contradictory. The problem is that the structure of any language cannot grasp the nature of unity consciousness, any more than a fork could grasp the ocean Picture Quote #1

A thing is only completely our own when it is a thing of joy to us Picture Quote #1

In its origins the utility school was strongly influenced by a desire to strengthen the potentially apologetic character of economics Picture Quote #1

The walking stick serves the purpose of an advertisement that the bearer’s hands are employed otherwise than in useful effort, and it therefore has utility as an evidence of leisure Picture Quote #1
