The Most Beautiful

”The  most beautiful interpretation or evaluation is commonly trustworthy and  accurate; but we are not trained to seek this mode of vision, for our  conceptual environments are powerfully oriented to other purposes. Our  common habits of perspective are useful only in extremely narrow  contexts of concern, but there are no such contexts in nature — unless  we invent them — usually for purposes that serve convenience, utility or  commodification. The most beautiful understandings do not rest at  conclusion; they dare, instead, to exceed themselves, and thus — to  »travel into beauty and relation, rather than, as an example, to achieve  something ‘objective’ which then masquerades as certainty.” — an anonymous informant
